Grendel Leviathan 1995

This was the final piece for Forge magazine, and finally I felt I had got to grips with the W&N Griffin Alkyd paints, this piece being the best of the three to date. Unfortunately Grendel went under at about this time and the piece never appeared in the magazine, I am not even sure if issue 4 materialised in which this piece was due. Hey Ho it was time to take a break from smelly polyester resin anyway I think!

the beginning

basic bits added

clay goes on

and on

  1. Thanks for your efforts in giving an overview of your work. I drooled over your Golden Demon entries untold times and it´s great to see them again from different angles.
    Looking forward to your newest miniature efforts.
    Cheers, Michael

  3. Really cool to see the rock formations gradually take shape! Love to see the pictures of your old GD entries - only ever saw what was printed in the Citadel Miniatures books! All round smashing stuff!

  6. WOW -it's you!

    I didn't realise that you were the sculptor/modeller who did these. I will search for the magazine articles later this evening and see what I can do.

    Very, very well done and thank you for the inspiration.
