I still need to give him a light sanding and then a nice flat coat of base paint. Probably white. Then I'll try my hand at painting him.
He is some sort of beast who is half tree/half animal.

Not yet, but it'll be some Japanese word for swamp monster or tree monster or something like thaat.He/it's pretty nifty. Got a name for it yet?

Only problem is the negative space areas under his sideburns....Can't cast it like that... Also, the horn on his head has to be little less pointed and blunt (slightly), it is too thin...
Great job....

Marty, dont forget the back where the figure's hair is. That stuff would get caught in the cracks and pull the figure apart.

I'm gonna try to sculpt a figure out of mild cheddar - that way, if it doesnt come out right, i can put it on a triscuit® brand whole wheat cracker and ingest it.

and the finished product! (the eyes were solid white, but the paint dried...)

If he is a swamp/moss monster... I would use shades of green and hardly any brown, I would also loose the white eyes and go with lime/neon green eyes. Keep it monochromatic.
Just my opinion. Take a photo of him wrestling with a G1 Muscle...
He is a great sculpt!!!

Also, can you cast a mold from a wax figure.
What I am thinking is this. Super Sculpey is way to soft to make any intricate details, unless you cook it first. And then carving the details is hit and miss. But... If I did the main body in sculpey, cooked it, and then dipped it in wax, then I would have a softer but easy to detail outer casing to work with for a prototype.
Just a thought.

I actually think that the black finnish look's better.
seem's to give it a sort of cast metal look , i like it alot.
Remember those Muscles we tampered with , and a couple were done in a smooth jet black ?
It reminded me of those , it would have been sweet if you took a pic with all 3.
sorry for the silly question but
what is the stuff you made him from? , is it a type of craft plastic you mold then it set's.

You did a great job, Jkaris. Too bad TGB never got around to making one.
I was curious what material you used to make this with. However, it looks like TGB recommends Castilene. (Is that what he used to make his GodBeasts?)
I think I'm going to try my hand at making a custom figure.
