Awesome Sculpts and just cool stuff

Jesse Moody

I know there are a few guys on these boards that have gotten into sculpting and I just wanted to share this site with ya. It is a lot like polycount but mainly for sculptors and painters and can really offer you a lot of help with what you may need or would like to know.

Plus there are some really cool sculpts on there from the guys and gals.

So check it out.

superman choking batman = win!

pliang

Looks like Batman found his match...

Yea it is quite awesome. Superman's anatomy is a little off, but still, very cool.

There's some awesome stuff going on there. Granted I'm not the biggest fan of DC and Marvel sculpts (I think it's because there are just so many of them out there). But I can still recognize the amount of talent put into them.

Really inspiring stuff. I enjoy sculpture, would be nice to have a go some time.

Batman/Superman is the best... but they're all pretty damn sweet

As awesome as that Batman/Superman sculpt is I can't help but giggle at the placement of the bolts supporting them.

Yeah the Batman/Superman one is probably one of my favorites. The sculptor is working on Supermans cape now and trying to wrap the piece up.

I am hoping he will do a kit of it and sell them as i would like to get my hands on one.

There are so many more cool sculpts on the site though and some really cool mods to existing busts, statues, etc.

Excellent place to learn new tricks and techniques though if you just read through the how to areas.

I would actually buy a superman choking batman figuring, just like conumist batman they made

Mark Dygert

They made the batman from Red Son? Oh crap I've got some hunting to do!

Randy Bowen has done some nice stuff over the years, some pretty crappy stuff too but I bet that was just to pay the bills and keep the fans from chewing him a new one. The guys a machine when it comes to cranking these out. Which could be why he quit for a while... A friend of mine collects his stuff and it's insane what he pays for some of this stuff.

I wish they would re-release some of Bowen's stuff. I don't care if they mark the re-issues in a way that makes them non-collectible.


EDIT: Meh, found it... not nearly as impressive as I thought it was going to be, still pretty cool tho.

Great site with tons of talent browsing it. I've been there everyday since Jesse linked it for me a few weeks ago. If nobody picks that Hulk up to kit it there is something very wrong. Oh man, and the guy doing the New Mutants team is drivin me crazy!! Cannot wait to see if he kits those.

Jesse Moody

yeah i love that site... so much gnar...
