I spent about ten years of my life writing and helping to promote popular collectibles from action figures to resin busts. But the truth is, the mass manufacturing process means that sometimes a lot of detail gets lost.
Certainly in my time I saw the standards of sculpting rise from the barely acceptable to the truly stunning. I dare I spent about ten years of my life writing and helping to promote popular collectibles from action figures to resin busts. Tim Bruckner is one, if not the best, in the business. It goes into everything, filled not just with information, but tips as well.
It starts with looking at the art reference, goes through the sculpting and casting to painting and ends with tips on going pro. Gorgeous photography detailing the various processes sit alongside little cartoon asides that not only raise a smile but raise pertinent points. You can just dip into it and always come back with some new piece of knowledge you never had before.
Nov 15, Parka rated it it was amazing Shelves: art-books-instructional. More pictures on my blog Here's a great book for anyone interested in sculpt figures, whether you're a collector, aspiring sculptor or a professional.
The book is written in an entertaining lighthearted manner, filled with sculpting techniques, photos and even comic-style drawings for illustration purposes.
I like th More pictures on my blog Here's a great book for anyone interested in sculpt figures, whether you're a collector, aspiring sculptor or a professional. I like the one that advises you to always get your children's permission before melting down their crayons. That's one good advice you might overlook, and there are plenty more useful ones throughout. It's a rather detailed book. As a non-sculptor, I learned a lot of new information about sculpting. There are different types of clay and each has different properties.
A few sculptors were interviewed and they explain their preference. There's even a recipe if you want to make your own. They also show you how to create the armature the wire support , how to cast, paint, make accessories and even create joints for movable parts.
There are a lot of processes behind the scenes not obvious to beginners or collectors. The book covers them in great detail. Chapter 10 on painting is a fun read with cute cartoons of professional prototype painter Kat Sapene dishing out advice. It's a helpful book for any sculptors looking to make their first figure, more so for those who are looking to sell them as the book covers casting and a section on going pro.
There are even tips on dealing with art directors and project managers. The book features mainly character models so you'll need to be knowledgeable about anatomy to get your sculpts looking good.

After all, it wasn't just the normal tome that listed figures and prices that I'm used to. Instead, this one actually gives you insight into starting your own sculpting and toy-making career, from conception to photographing the final product.
It's written by some pros in the industry and they take you through the creature of a figure or two and it's a pretty easy and engrossing read.
If you've ever wondered what exactly goe As a toy aficionado, I felt it was a moral imperative to read this book.

Major Marjorie and the Martian Mangler have been placed on a single environmental pedestal and hand-painted by Tim himself. Marjorie even comes with a removable helmet accessory! This piece is one-of-a-kind, measuring 16 inches long, 8. It's a must-have for fans of old space-age serials, pulp novels and the pin-up art of George Petty. In a series of films were produced starring Miss Pettice, produced and directed by her husband Paul Pettice.
The films propelled her into even greater popularity, until one day, on the set of 'Major Marjorie and the Martian Menace,' a full-size paper-mache spaceship broke free of its flying wires and landed on Paul Pettice, killing him on the spot. The film was never completed, and Marjorie Pettice retired from show business to live in seclusion in a modest room house in the Colby Canyon, California.
