Sleepy Kobold figure?
Monday, November 14th, 2011Since even the old Stink Child Comics days, I’ve wanted t see my characters in a physical form. Be it plushies, or action figures, anything. The problem is, I could never afford to have some toy company put these things together.
The other day I got an idea, funnily enough after seeing a video of a guy modifying My Little Pony figures so they were more show-accurate. The idea was that I could model something out of Sculpey, cast it, and produce something myself. It’d take work, sure, but I’d like there to be something more physical that’s something from my strip. Something I can have and that maybe the readers would also like.
I wondered what the first thing should be? A Goblin? Claudette? Then I remembered a comment in a recent strip about the sleeping kobolds. YES! A sleeping kobold!
The following are some Work in Progress pictures of the scupture. It’s unfinished and still kinda rough around the edges, but something to give you guys, a little idea of what’s coming down the No Dice pipe.
If this goes well, there’s a chance I’ll do another one in the future. I’d like to attempt the goblin and Claudette ones I mentioned, maybe some other characters as well.
Let me know what you guys think in the comments.
UPDATE
The scuplt is now done, baked and sanded. Gonna start casting later in the week.
