Hi there from South Africa

[weaponlogic]

Hey all

Ive been a member here for awhile but have never introduced myself officially.

Im a big Gi joe fan and a member of Gi Joburg South Africa's only podcast and video review force from South Africa.

Im a freelance lllustrator and designer working currently on mobile games and apps, but would like to get into concept art for toys.

I primarily collect Gi joe, vintage modern and Sideshow as well as mecha and videogame related collectables (toys)

Aside from illustrating, Id love to scullpt my own stuff and would enjoy getting into that side of our hobby.

Do you know Sharlto Copely?




If you want to get into sculpting, I suggest you pick up some super sculpey and mess around with it. If you keep working at it and practicing, you'll get better and better. It takes a while though. I've been sculpting for about 3 or 4 years and I'm not even close to where I want be. It is really fun though.

Haha, that is pretty funny.

Also when working with the super sculpey it tends to get soft rather quick but there is sculpey firm which like its name, it's firmer. Sculpey firm is pretty tough to use because it's a lot hard the super sculpey.

ill keep an eye out for the sculpey firm as well, its tricky to get that stuff here but i'm sure ill find someone.
