Hi Mike and thank's for your reply.
Yes, the Sculpey is great to work with.I mix 1 part Sculpey III with 4 parts Super Sculpey.
I started with thick copperwire which were to work as the sceleton.With this wire I fix the hole figure in it's position.At this stage you are still able to try out the best fit.
After that I put a layer of Sculpey over the wire and the burn it in the oven.I will now have a quite steady base to work with.
I start with the legs on move my way upwards.The stages I will work in is comparable to putting on clothes.During my work I sometimes burn the figure for a easier handling.
I finish the construction with mounting boots, weapons (with hands on) and head.

This is the short description.But I will surely put it up as an article on my site.

Regards.....Mattias
