Overall, I'm pretty pleased with how they turned out. Some of them are pretty good and some are a bit iffy, but I'm not being too critical on myself as it was my first attempt at sculpting such small details.
What I've learned this time ...
- When doing small details, it's best to push the green stuff completely flat to ensure it sticks and then push it toward the center to build the details.
- Don't sculpt small details late at night when my eyes are tired.
- It's easy to keep going over the same sculpt trying to get it perfect but at this stage in my sculpting, it's best to get it pretty good and leave it there rather than overworking it and getting annoyed.
Hopefully, I'll find one soon and get these guys finished and ready for painting. In the meantime, I'll be cracking on with my Starstreak Hydra's.

Looking good, mate.
Excellent (green)stuff ! Do they really need cloaks? I'd be tempted to paint them camo and pay the points for camelioline t shirts.
But I suppose that's why my armies all look unfinished.
Nicely done sir!
Like them a lot! Good to see you post something too. :)
Thanks guys, glad you like them, they've been a hell of a labour of love.
@Zzzzz - I like to use cloaks to represent guys with the stealth ability mate, so it's a theme across my entire army. Also I don't want to cop out on them as they're also about pushing my sculpting ability.
I just need to find a decent tutorial, looking back, I don't really like Harker's cloak anymore.
Superb. Way to go!
