Here is my Ori.

Head:Frodo
Upper Body:Frodo
Lower Body:Gimli
Upper Arms:Gimli
Lower Arms:Frodo
Legs:Gimli
Tunic: 12th Dr. Who

I still haven't found an air dry clay that I can safely use; so I sculpted the head out of Sculpty and had to make the rest out of scrap, fodder, and glue.

I started out by sawing the torsos of Gimli and Frodo in half. I used Frodo's upper body and used Gimli's waist and legs. This made him much thinner and helped to make it look like he has a hunched-back.

Upper Arms are clearly Gimli's and I bulked up the lower arms with hot glue. I will admit, I am not happy with the appearance but it's as good as I can do right now. I have to be conservative with my Coronation Gimli Trim, I am almost out and not willing to buy another one. I used Rubberbands to fill in the gaps. The belt came from Pintel and I used the necktie from a Rogue One figure.

Hey! You got Ori done! He looks really great. I love that you got the hunched posture to work. The head looks awesome! Sorry to hear that you can't use any two-part epoxies. That makes life really difficult. I hated using sculpey, but if it was my only option, I'd definitely be using it! You make it work for you, which is what matters! I love the pic of the 3 brothers together... they all look great!!

Awesome work!!! love the sculpting!!!!! I would suggest Bendy Scupty and a piant stripper ( high powered hair dryer) when you can't bake or boil the piece, the will be much more durable.

Thanks!! Boiling has worked pretty well so far. I just don't like how flimsy it is. I will try the Bendy one though

Stick to sculpy as it seems to be safe for you to use. Or buy some disposable gloves if you do use miliput. Keep going! Imagine if Weta was watching us xD nice job as usual. I usually whittle away the Gimli arms with sand paper and a knife then sculpt sleeves over the remainder.

Lady, your face-sculpting-skills impress me again and again. You could sculp over a dried raisin, as base, and the result would bear a striking similarity to the characters face, though. That‘s one hudge talent !
Congrats on another impressive figure !

Still want a head-sculpt-commission of Beorn !

Regards !
