Specimen ID# m-1A Species: Metroid Sub: Parasite Origin: SR388 Stage: Infant I decided to do something that would only take a few hours instead of a few days and came up with this little project. Who wouldn't want a cute baby Metroid in a specimen jar? I made him using super sculpey, citadel paint, and some clear nail polish. I have some custom clear stickers coming in as specimen labels and I'm working on coming up with a more custom sci-fi themed container. I may be doing a limited run of these, so if anyone is interested send me a PM! Comments and critiques are welcome.
Oh my god this is so good. You're absolutely right, who wouldn't want a baby Metroid in a jar?! I'm sold. But what are those peachy things on the right in the last picture? sooo curious...
Just lumps of sculpey To get the fangs and the little spherical eye pieces I sculpt them and then prebake them so they harden up. I then stick them into soft sculpey and sculpt around them. I use those lumps of sculpey to hold prebaked pieces I'm not using so they don't get lost. Thanks for the kind words
That's the coolest thing. Would love to buy one if you have any spares. here's some cool containers, but they look a little small DAZ 3D - Sci-Fi Crates 'n Containers
