24/02/2018 -A Minor Diversion
Whilst playing around with Milliput, I briefly toyed with the idea of totally changing my design in favour of something more "me". Something with naturalistic wood textures and maybe some vegetation (e.g. ivy or lichen).

Years ago, I took a Siligum mold of some bark, which I dug out, and found it really works well with Milliput.
|
|
I particularly liked the mixture of organic and metal in this particular bit of hulk.
|
|
Lichen would look great (and would be really easy to model).

Going back to the Milliput bark, I thought that carving into it worked really well.
There were some really interesting shapes in my Purton pictures, so I used Photoshop to mock up some ideas. |

Ultimately I rejected such a major change in design, so far into the process. However I'm not entirely happy with my current design. I'm just not sure it's a style I would wear myself...
