An Uruk-hai Orc by Patrick S.

This miniature sculpture was submitted by a web visitor (Patrick S.) It is a bit of a mixture between an Uruk hai and an Orc. Nice Job Patrick and thanks for submitting the pics! Keep Sculpting!! Here are some tips from Patrick: He used Super Sculpey, and for tools he used one of the tool kits I recommend here on my website. One valuable lesson that he learned is that a stable armature makes a world of difference when you're sculpting a miniature! :)

Miniature figure sculptors and modelers use Kneadatite Blue/Yellow, which they have nicknamed "Green", for a number of specific uses:

To fashion the models used to make the molds for miniature pewter figures.
- To fill gaps that appear in "built-up" kits.
- To customize pieces with added parts not included in model kits.

Kneadatite is a room-temperature curing epoxy/polyamide sealant in two-part tape form. It is stable in its packaged form consisting of base and curing agent side by side on release film. The base and curing agent are of contrasting colors so that when kneaded together, complete mixing is easily observed.
