    Default Completed: Alien Queen Reservoir: Project AVP

    Not much time to complete Rachel's Alien Queen water feature, so it must be finished in the next few days! With a bit of Super Sculpey, a toothpick and small paintbrush I sculpted the alien queen to about the size of an oatmeal cookie. For those unfamiliar with Sculpey, it is a polymer clay that can be baked hard in the oven. The fetus will be mounted on a "holding harness" that I will kitbash from various parts---its as if she was extracted from the host, secured and is in stasis. Ok now I want an oatmeal cookie damn it.

    On the right is the clear acrylic capsule that will hold the Alien queen:



    After airbrushing the little queen with flat black, some gunmetal and a bit of yellow its time to do some hand painting:





    More updates soon!

    You sculpted that freehand out of claw with a toothpick?

    If so that is pretty damn nice.

    For the oven can it be a home oven or do you need a special oven?


    Mesh makes the world go around!!!!

    Just a home oven. You can buy sculpey at an arts a crafts store. I used it once and it's very easy to use. Baking doesn't take too long either.

    Yea I showed my class and they wanted to know where the mold came from to make it. It blew them away that you made it yourself without a mold.

    Hey glad you like it so far Rachel--

    Yeah thats just pretty much modeled after a few pics I was looking at--I didnt want the tail to look like a worm (like it does in the posted pics of that figurine) so I modeled it after the tail on the "runner" alien. I think it has more detail and thus more character.

    You bake Sculpey in your home oven at 250 degrees F for about 15 mins--longer for larger pieces of course.

    dude your like fuc#ing magiver over there man if i give you some duct tape, super glue, a straw, some sculpey and of course a oatmeal cookie
    i would get something unbelievable.

    seriously thats amazing dude, by chance are you an ex-sculpter? lol jw

    how do you make those so presice at such small sizes are you really like an artist or is there a special secret? TELL ME! i must know the secret to your Jedi ways lol that seriously looks like you put many hours of work into im assuming it took you like maybe 6-10 hours between shaping it baking it and painting it. am i at all close? or did you already say maybe ill take a cremarics class next year never thought it would be useful til i started looking at your work.
