Post by: marko on March 23, 2013, 01:16:51 PM

Here is an excellent overview on sculpting reliefs on Steven Lloyds site from Gary Dombrowski.

I think I may try this with a Buck Rogers figure I have had in mind.

What an excellent sculpter? Is it sculpting, adding layers instead of carving away?

Whatever it is, he has a great eye and the faces are fantastic.

Look forward to seeing more of his work. Thanks for posting Mark

There are great ideas, a huge cinema and an artificial medium. ;D ;D

With the result, I will stay with my with black stones and gray dust.
Traditional flat metal figures, I can recycle them.

Beautiful work, flats only in the loosest definition though.

An interesting article. Fortunately I get as much pleasure from painting resin, semi-flat, relief, demi-ronde figures, whatever you want to call them as I do traditional zinnfiguren, a bit like my taste in food, drink and music, plenty of variety is good for you.  ;D

I have done several of Gary's pieces and they are bits of perfection. Thanks for the article.
