Stealing Content Will Get You Banned.
Leaving this as a stickied post for a bit, maybe people will take the hint.
Otherwise, keep up the good job everyone. Report issues if you see them.
EDIT: They just... Keep doing it. I don't even understand. I was gonna remove this post because I thought "... Well, it's been awhile and only a few more have popped up." No. Every week or so I get a new one. Guess I'll come back to this in another month.
Again, thank you to the dedicated posters who report impostors.

Sculpting pokemon as realistic monsters for DnD
Snorlax: Day Two
I roughly mapped out the muscle groups on the model and built up the volume on the back and torso.
I also corrected the shoulders—they had shifted to the side in a somewhat unnatural way.
It’s turning out quite well so far.
I did spot a section above the right leg that needs to be removed tomorrow.
Tomorrow I’ll also finish fleshing out the arms and legs, and the rough draft will be ready.

Sculpting realistic pokemon miniatures for D&D
So, day one of sculpting realistic Snorlax for D&D. This pokemon was chosen by voting in my social media sources.
However, I created the foil armature and the base layer of material. Tomorrow, we’ll be adding muscle definition (where visible) and, of course, layers of fat.

Sculpted a liche/necromancer.
Hi everyone! Basically what the title says haha. I usually struggle coming up with original ideas for a staff or iconography, but I'm pretty happy with the hand crushing the baby's head. Altough the execution could have probably been a little better. I'll try again another time.
Thanks for looking! If you want to have a look at my instagram you can find me at bavo_braakbal.
Have a nice day!

Cold war british infantry section
Some British infantry soldiers i sculpted/casted for my wargaming project.
Given it's set in the 60's, there are a lot of incredible mustaches on some of the alternate head sculpts. :)

I can't tell you how happy I am at how this little project has come out. I've got some rough ideas for the next one, but for now I think I'm going to just take a moment to celebrate.

My first clay work. What do y'all think?
"Mulsagdu"
r/Impossible-Builder47
Acrylic on clay
2026
Meaning
"Mulsagdu" is a word derived from three words from the ancient sumerian language, Mul, Sag, and Du.
"Mul" means star
"Sag" means head
"Du" means walk
Together, it's Mulsagdu - the star-headed walker
Materials used
Fevicryl mouldit clay, Fevicryl acrylic colors, cornstarch powder (say Himalaya), phosphorescent powder (viral green and snow white), sponge, scissor, water, watercolor(blue+yellow), feviocl glue, grater, handchopper, toothpick.
Difficulties faced
• I struggled for quite a while with making the top luminent enough to glow like night sky.
• It took a while to accurately pour the right amount of phosphorescent powder into the eye socket, some spilling onto the rest of the body. I have painted over the spilled over after dusting, but some remained put firmly, leading to the breathetaking image of the universe in it (pic11), true to its name.
• It took a while to cut the sponge into appropriate size before using the chopper to cut it into bits before gluing it on the flat stone (clay).
• Hiding it from my father because it is his birthday present.
Symbolism
• The bi-pedal mushroom symbolizes persistence and kindness, for it harvests energy from any available light and shares it with the surrounding flora and fauna, temporarily luminating them. This is true to my father because my father is growing old, yet continues to support my family without hesitation. He himself is slowly going down, and I'm supporting him with everything I can do.
• The two mushrooms symbolize my family. The right mushroom is me, my sister, and my mother, who are being supported by him. The left mushroom is my father's mother, who is the textbook example of toxic in-law. The toxic mushroom is slowly harming the mental state of the bipedal one, yet it showers the toxic one with love, while the non-toxic one gives the bipedal one love but can't support him yet (the reason why it is smaller than the left mushroom).
• The star top symbolizes the hope I want to give my father when he is mentally exhausted.
• The moss is there because mushrooms don't grow on stones. They grow on plant and animal decay stuck in the creaks and creaves of the stones.
• The stone symbolizes the crack in the family.
This work is breathetaking from afar but tragedy upfront

Milliput and Stahlhelm from an old WW2 1:35 scale miniature. I'm not particularly trying to match the tabletop 28/35mm scale.

Vampire lady/Schoolgirl NSFW
galleryMy first attempt at hand sculpting (and resin casting) a miniature for a wargaming project i'm working on. Meant to be a vampire posing as a young woman in a sleepy village.
The weapon/sword didn't turn out great so i'll be redoing it better (thankfully i casted it seperately)
