Hey Guys,
So I started these dudes Sunday Night, First time really trying to sculpt flesh, tried a few approches which i'll explain.
Would love to hear any tips and feedback, having great fun, just harder than I imagined
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Comments?I am trying to work in stages; so typically wire frame, skeleton with thin GS work over frame, then some base muscles and flesh, then il add in more rough shapes like with the triplearm dude, before adding some more fleshwork on top.
Any tips on when to incorporate some clothes? I have some saches and like hanging cloth that I want to add, but I dont know whether it should be last? now? or before the final flesh work? I'm struggling with knowing how large the legs will be, so dont want to add it then find my legs too thin. For clarity, the cloth is actual plastic parts, not a GS sculpt.

Grotesque - this dudes carrying 2 wraithblades and a ghostaxe, so he has 3 arms, 2 on one side, one on the other, I will be going for a slimmer grotesque feel with him, a semi slaanesh, quick and deadly feel
I tried two approaches, I initially put muscle blobs onto a wire frame (well a wire frame with a little milliput/gs to make a skeleton), I then sculpted these blobs together, for the other leg I then just used 1 mass of GS and sculpted that into muscle in one go.
Started to rough out his chest muscles.

Sprinter - Going for a running pose, he will have a hulked up left arm with a morghast blade, while the right arm will be some little injectors and claws from a necron spyder
For this guy I used smaller blobs and sculpted those together, reasonably pleased how they turned out.

Goat Leg dude! - simply wanted to try something different
Have done some work on his torso, adding in the starts of his muscles, I think they turned out pretty well.

Dual bodied dude! - So I wanted to do a little more kitbash, as by this point I was at my limits with my patience for sculpting. He's going for a split body feel, with the wrack body and then il sculpt a larger second torso on his left side, using a talos mask as the head.
