New Sculpture

So we recently shipped Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2!! You can see my developers blog here, http://marvelultimatealliance.marvel.com/en/news_comments/making_of_songbird/ .It is based on the civil war story arc by Mark Miller, and drawn by Steve Mcniven. I really enjoyed working on the title and wanted to do something that kinda reflected the time spent on the project. So the sculp will be based on the MUA 2 version of captain america. It is the moment just before civil war when cap and ironman are about to shake hands.



I will try to get my Tiff to take pictures of it often so i can post progress.

Finished paint

Finished off my Cyclops sculpture. Not happy with it, I hurried it to much as i usually do. I have started a new one that I have told myself I cant move on until I am 100% sure of what i just finished. Already looks 100 times better. I will post on it soon.
