My Hammer sculptures
 

Hi. Last time I was here I was asking about photos for a sculpture I was going to do. This was 2010!
I was asking about Twins of Evil photo reference for a sculpture. Well I havent done a TofE sculpture yet-but I did do some other Hammer themed sculptures.

Here's what I have been doing.

A screaming Dracula (I do a blank face portrait first and then alter it into the expression)



Michael Ripper



Just completed a new Peter Cushing (couldnt get the likeness right)


Patrick Troughton (will eventually be a Klove and Rat Catcher)


With friends:



I also make a copy for my "wall of faces."


More to come (hopefully it will be a lot sooner than 6 years).

very cool

These are good.

Beautiful work!

Great!

Another
 

Thanks everyone.

Another, just painted.

Watch the sizing on your photos, please

How do I resize them?
I just link them from another site sinc ethat is what the image tags tell me to do.

Oh I get it--the way it scrolls to the side. lol Yeah sorry about that. Making picture collages at 2 am is never good idea. Fixed.

Impaled Dracula updated. This is my favorite of the bunch so far.
I have to redo a couple of Peter Cushing figures I did.

Couple more.
 

Michael Ripper again, and Patrick Troughton as the Ratcatcher from Phantom of the Opera.

New Dracula.

Awesome

How do you choose your subjects and do you sell your work? Not that I could possibly afford it but you really should if you're already not. You have a real talent! 8)

Thanks.
I choose them based on a whim for the most part, but then I have to get the right reference photos.
I wanted to do Twins of Evil because I had not seen one and thought it a good challenge, however I ended up doing Cushing and Lee heads first. But then I wasn't satisfied with them so I did them again. And again.
Then I did Michael Ripper just as a spur of the moment thing. I wanted to do a Patrick Troughton head for myself. Now I have finally started a Twins of Evil.

I have sold a couple heads through Facebook and Ebay.
I had a lot of positive feedback for the Michael Ripper but have only sold one.

Don't make much money at this point.

I did get a commission after someone saw the Ratcatcher-but they want a 1/6th scale head of a modern movie character.

New Dracula
 

Revised version of previous screaming portrait.

It only took me 7 years.
Twins of Evil.

More
 

These are resculpted and repainted heads.

Wasn't happy with the previous Cushing and Lee faces.

Michael Ripper and Patrick Troughton
 

There's also a making of video for the Michael Ripper. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEQEy1Ly7r0

Twins of Evil
 

And lastly, the Twins of Evil.

yes it's me
 

You never thought you'd see me again
eh Svengali?


I am still doing Hammer sculptures.
In fact, I made a video of the ones I have done (including some early statues that are unrelated).

I think I choose subjects based on obscurity.
I really wanted to do the Ratcatcher and the Twins of Evil--but I was doing the Cushing head mainly to test out my skills.
I started using Monster Clay and I was doing digital stuff--I did a digital version of Ursula Andress from SHE but that's the only one I would try printing.
I prefer working with clay.
