In a nutshell: Design your ultimate hero. Get your design printed as a 3D model. You paint the model. Someone picks a winner. Everyone plays Top Trumps!

A friend of mine turned 40 recently so I thought I’d have a go at making a caricature model of him. Started with some exaggerated sketching and unflattering painting in photoshop…

… and then moved on to a sculpt. Can’t say there’s a fantastic likeness, but this was a far as I’d got by the time I’d reached the deadline I’d set myself, i.e. his birthday.

There’s a lot more to the Jim model besides the head, but all that needs tidying up before posting at a later date.
