Next up for tanker two, I used the larger torso as a starting point as well as the head with the Ushanka and 'stache.

then using dental electric waxer, and Margin wax that carves, i designed the leaning pose that sets him up to lean on a T-34 fender or something like this.

Figure three is made from the remaining short upper torso, again using the dental waxes, i carved and sculpted him into a figure on a slight stroll. I was planning to have one tanker with a tool box in hand so this is the one! here is the bulk of the figure complete and ready for resin duplication.


After the resin copy was made, I added hands, shoes, and final pocket detail and cast the figure into sterling silver..( had some jewelry silver i use to cast random parts for projects.




I am really happy with how he came out... especially now with paint on !

Tanker four is a complete waxup except for the face, which was a hat removed resin copy of the third head from the MIG set and I used wax to give him a shaggy haircut... I started with a paperclip frame,



Here they are more complete with new paint jobs except for tanker one in the middle which needs repaint!



Ther will be more figures this week , i hope, as i need a few more before Vallycon show on March 13!
