Polymer clay sculpture of a Bloom Troll.
This sculpture was created based on concept ideas that a friend of mine had. It ended up being a lot more work than I first imagined, but that always seems to be the case with craft projects. Hope you enjoy!

Creating a scratch-built plastic stop-motion armature. My "Workbench Buddy" character.
มุมมอง 523ปีที่แล้ว

I've named him my "Workbench Buddy" and I still have future plans for him, but for now, he works okay. Hope you enjoy!

    This is beautifully sculpted.I love the main character ,especially his head,the texture really brings the head to life.The outfit is so nice and fits the character perfectly,I could not see him wearing anything else.You also finished the base so it blends in well with the character and finishes telling the whole story.I really think it’s imaginative and fits in a perfect fantasy theme.🥰

    Hey just found this! Really great work! How many hours did this take you? I've been working on a version in Blender to recreate it in color. I also did Waterfall in color and Relativity is by far more simple to create. I saw you mentioned there's some impossible geometry or optical illusion in this one? Curious where...

    • @theavidcreator7356
      @theavidcreator7356 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi. I worked on this sporadically over many months, so I'm honestly not sure how many hours it took, and wouldn't hazard a guess. Good luck with your Blender project. The impossible geometry is that you can see the underside of the two arches in the top left, but shouldn't be able to at that angle. It's a small thing though.

    • @theavidcreator7356
      @theavidcreator7356 ปีที่แล้ว

      I unfortunately don't have proper templates as I had to adapt lots of things as I went along. I might try to revise the original templates at some stage.

    Pick Guard- I use clear plastic and paint the inside to give it a realistic look. Pick-ups - I used Foil tape used in AC applications. Knobs- I made molds for solder, then I cap with a plastic insert. Your fret board looks amazing, I do Fenders because they are much easier. I want to ret a Les Paul Black Beauty next. Love your work, and at 62 I enjoy watching peoples detail.

    0:24 Stick ball joint is not hard enough, It is easy to break due to the adhesive force between the ball and the round rod alone. Generally speaking, the ball joint needs to penetrate the round rod through the ball to withstand the pulling force when rotating, friction between joints, and finger pushing. If you don’t want to drill a hole, the easiest way is to glue the foot of the ball pushpin to the incision of the cylinder tube with a universal glue, which will become a very strong Ball joint

    • @theavidcreator7356

      Thank you for the advice. I will certainly consider this if I build another armature.

    If the inside of spaceship can also use LED strip, windows of spaceship can be more brighter than used LED lights. but honestly, it really good, especailly the smoke effect inside tunnel, the skill is so famous on TH-cam in fews years ago, which is use for painting 3D goldfish👍

    • @theavidcreator7356
      @theavidcreator7356 ปีที่แล้ว

      I thought about using the strips inside, but thought I'd try the bulbs and see how it came out. Now I at know for future builds.
