Very smooth, and very straight forward. Thank you for choosing to do a sculpt tutorial on not the usual. Would love to see some armour pieces like for Orks, Primaris or even Tyranid etc 👌🏼
As someone who loves birdifying their monsters, this is wonderful, thank you! I do have a question about usage, though; I assume when you aren't doing this for a tutorial you're making these on something like wax paper so they can be removed easily, but how do you suggest applying them to a figure? Do you make a bunch, cut them off, bend them, and then let them harden before gluing? Or do you attach them while they're still pliable? If so, any tips on doing so without destroying your delicate work? Thanks again, you have the most accessible and useful sculpting tutorials I've seen for learning detailing, and I hope to enjoy many more!
Thanks! If o were to do something like a wing or a group of feathers I would sculpt them all together, it's way easier. In case of a wing, you need to make the core of the wing using some kind of thin metal sheet and then sculpt the feathers over it
@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures loved it. Also could very easily make leaves with the way you demonstrated. Which is good as so have a jingle themed mini I need to do.
What a wonderful, informative tutorial, well done. I do have a question though, how would you go on sculpting the other side of the feather? If it was to for example hang from something and only one side would have any detail it would look a bit werid, and frankly I don't exactly see a way to sculpt it from the other side without the original one losing detail, unless you cure it first and then add even more greenstuff to the other side and then sculpt it, but that would make the feather really fat and unrealistic. I'm stuck, scared and alone with this. Please help.
You answered your own question, you sculpt one side, let it cure, flip it and do the other, just make the first one thinner if your intention is to sculpt both sides.
@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures Hm, okay, i just wasn't sure if that would work at all, I'm trying my best, but greenstuff is a scary medium to work with, so I appreciate the advice. Cheers!
If you want to do it double sided, just take it from the surface you are sculpting it on stick it upside down on some blue tack and sculpt the other side in the same way
Are not the feather a bit thicc in the end ? I am super interested into doing a lot and overlapping them on a cloak, but I'm afraid the result is going to be really thick.
If you sculpt it over a base, yes it will. If you sculpt it over a flat surface it will be flat and of you sculpt it over a grilled cheese sandwich or will look like a grilled cheese sandwich. I didn't thought I had to explain this but the base is not an integral part of the Tutorial, it's just a good background so you can clearly see what I'm doing.
Great! Are candels like these (Son of the Phoenix Chapter) also on the list? 1.bp.blogspot.com/-tseTZ_ZiN3A/WeSzOynGO9I/AAAAAAAANMs/2XBg1ku7P-MOYwuQERvFcswn2xkeyr5RwCLcBGAs/s1600/DSC_1229.JPG
Hello, your tutorial - amazing! Pls, make guide “how paint skin and face with contrast paints” Human: cadian and pale skin Xenos: eldar, drukhari, tau, orks, tyranids Chaos Demons I think this video will be popular Thanks
Hey there, Juan, I wonder... how would you go about sculpting a Necron ribcage (excluding the spine and front symbol)? I am trying to convert a lychguard to be female and as a result I want to try making a smaller, leaner ribcage, as well as wider hips. Thing is, I suck at sculpting and want the details (even if they are just some indentation lines) to look sharp. Some tips on how to go about it? (i intend to keep the "core" of the chest symbol, wires, spine and armor and just "tighten" the ribcage; sadly simply sanding it down is not enough not to ruin the details so it needs proper sculpting).
Not an easy thing. What I would probably do myself is sculpt the ribcage without the indentations and then rout them out using my micromotor and a round bur. I know that doesn't help you but that's how I would do it.

Te juro que cada dia me quedo mas loco con tus videos. Si señor. Saludos!
Gracias 😘
I needed feathers for th warriors on my Little Bighorn Diorama. Your video helped me a lot.Thanks a lot.Best regards from Germany
Just the tutorial that I needed for an upcoming project. Thank you very much for the demo on making these.
Thank you for watching! Glad I could help you
One word: Awesome.
Thanks mate 😘
Juan is becoming my favourite artist! So so talented! ♥️
Thanks Maisie! I'm flattered
Thank you so much!
Happy to help!

Thanks for the suggestions! I will get them noted for future videos
Thanks for the video.
Happy to help mate
I like how when you mention 'random cuts,' the big cut on your thumb shows up. Damn scalpels.
Oh mate, funny enough that's not from hobbying, that's from my day to day job.
LOL, "Dat Framing!", great tutorial, do you have any videos on making flames? Flames on a sword or flames for a torch?
No, but I will add it to the list of Tutorials to make. It's a great idea. Thanks!
Eres la hostia. Plain and simple.
Lo se guapo 😘
Nice man! I may give this a go for more of my Raven Guard
Nice! Great idea

If you sculpted these feathers out of steel they'd be heavier.
Indeed they were. Not very easy for someone without a forge though...
Amazing mate, thank you. As always clear and fun instruction
Thanks mate, glad you liked it
@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures loved it. Also could very easily make leaves with the way you demonstrated. Which is good as so have a jingle themed mini I need to do.
Yeah, it's almost a 2x1 Tutorial
looks great! could this be adapted to be full wings?
Gracias.
A ti por verlo !
thank you for this, making tree leaves is similar
Yes it is! Thanks for watching, glad you liked it

Time to turn my carnosaur into a bird
YES!!!
Love your content :)
Thanks mate
How you do back side of the leaf? Or you just leave it as it is?
If you want to do it double sided, just take it from the surface you are sculpting it on stick it upside down on some blue tack and sculpt the other side in the same way
Are not the feather a bit thicc in the end ?
I am super interested into doing a lot and overlapping them on a cloak, but I'm afraid the result is going to be really thick.
You can always make them thinner, but yeah, sculpting feather wings is hard.
And the other side of that feather , looks like that plastic base ?
If you sculpt it over a base, yes it will.
If you sculpt it over a flat surface it will be flat and of you sculpt it over a grilled cheese sandwich or will look like a grilled cheese sandwich.
I didn't thought I had to explain this but the base is not an integral part of the Tutorial, it's just a good background so you can clearly see what I'm doing.
😘
Nice! And maybe next a cloak? :)
Cloak is on the list, but it will take a while. It's coming
Great! Are candels like these (Son of the Phoenix Chapter) also on the list?

@@JuanHidalgoMiniatures it does actually help, since I have the tools for it. Thanks. Will do some practice models and hopefully all will be well
Don't be afraid to rout the holes bigger and refine them with Greenstuff later
So you sculpt as well??
I do actually. I worked as a sculptor for a while
