part two

mix up some green stuff


roll it in to a sausage and apply it to the legs.

Get your sculpting tool.

start to smooth it out

get it as smooth as you can

then do it again on the other leg

go over the model and fix any missups

then roll up a ball of GS

and put it on top of the legs

then push the chest on top

stay tuned for part three

part three
then roll a smaller ball

then put it were the head will be

then put the head on


then when it drys get a file and shave it as smooth as possible


when you're done it should look something like this

later i will probably do one painting alpha legion.
well I hope this was helpful.

Dink dank doo!
Very good Falkus, short, succint and simple. I like it.
Though you need to stop biting your fingernails so much or your skin will grow above the end of the nail like mine...not attractive I can tell you. :P

That's a great method man. May I suggest ProCreate as an alternative material to GS? It files down much better.

sure do whatever you want :D

Nice and simple, and very effective.
I think that earns a pinning!
Falkus Kibre - March 5, 2008 06:29 AM (GMT)

Don't sell yourself short man, it's one of the most seamless conversions I've seen (once painted of course).

Even though I did make this tutorial I got the method from Doghouse just to make that clear.

What is the thickness of the plastic card that you used for this ?

Watch the thread necro, I'll let it slid since its a valid question.

I think i can do this, i thank you 100 times for showing a simple and manageble way to do this.
Not to criticise but all the other tutorials ive seen require GS equal to jes godwyns anyway.
10/10 for simplicty-> effectiveness.
could i ask for more pics for scale idea. like next to diffrent models etc?
