Hi,

This afternoon I finished the chests, pants and filling. Tonight, I'll do the faces and arms muscles.

I tried to respect the real 2009 athletes anatomy (in 49ers O roster, they 're big, but not so fat), sometimes making them thinner or more muscled. If they don't find success in Football, they will be able to make their second carreer in pro wrestling or... chip and dales. :rtfl:



BTW, I'll compete in the MFCA photo contest, in the 2 categories (single pose, certainly with the center figure, and scene with the complete offensive line), as soon as I'll suscribe to MFCA.

Hi,

tonight I made the figures' faces, I didn't try to make it like the real athletes, but just make them look bad guys.

The goal is to make a aggresssive effect visible under the mask, and in the same time, trying to achieve some fast improvements on the project.

Tomorrow I'll finish the sculpting. I'm a little late on my program, but here it's 1am and I need to rest.

MUSCLES !!!
 

Hi,

this afternoon I worked a little on my slot racing tracks, but I took some time to work on my line men too.

I almost (I have to add the chinstraps) 2 of them. Big, heavy, and hard muscled linemen ! I also made little corrections on jerseys.

Hopefully, there is no doping controls in french miniature football :rtfl:

Coming along nicely
 

Good Muscles thmbsp$

Very Nice ppls$

more muscles....
 

thank you !


I finished the two other figures (Tackles). It's funny to see that the 2 tackles are the most powerfull figures I made : the right tackle is low and hard muscled, the left tackle is just like a mountain :D

I don't know how it will work on the field...but I believe it will be at least impressive :rtfl:

Hi,

I completed two of the 4 linemen.

I undercoated them...they start to look like football athletes ltsplbll

Tonight I'll finish the chinstraps of the 2 other ones, and sand the defects undercoat revealed.

Excellent work...
 

you are obviously a miniature master! No doubt you have studied the some of the Verlinden publications and techniques?

thank you thmbsp$



I'm afraid not :D but I do professional freelance modelling (scenery, show case diorama, and other scale scenery sculpting, like accessories for wargamers). Sculpting men-type miniatures is quite new for me (I just tried it several years ago).

I plan to create my own football figures soon. For now, I practice using ff.net figures for "canevas". It's a good hobby for me : I have a lot of fun and in the same time, I improve my skills for my job. ;)
