Oh! I dont know how this works. So please dont hesitate to help me.
By the way, Id like to show you some ideas and experiments concerning fantasy miniatures, terrain and tabletop-armies.
At first I tried to make a copy of a head from a miniature as I had seen in a tabletopboard.
For this you need just a base and milliput.
1) put enough milliput on the base
2) the head (this one is from Wuzagh, a orc shaman) has to be impressed in the milliput, take care that you not destroy the details
3) after 20-30 min the impression is a little harder and you can work on details, the details of my feathers were terrible, so I worked on this
4) after 4 hours the milliput is hard and you can put a small ball of milliput in the new form
5) when your copy is dry enough you can start to lean and individualize your copy. I cut the ears and this futile stuff in front of the head :)
