This was a commison from a client that wanted a bigger version of Dante with a nice arsenal of weapons from the game. I wanted the weapons to hold up well and I've been experimenting with molding and casting of late, so this provided a good test. I fabricated all the weapons from scratch. The sword was full tang metal with sculpt applied for the details. The twin guns and the shotgun, I sculpted, then molded and cast in oomoo liquid plastic. This worked out as a good way to keep the guns looking identical other than the color. I also sculpted the throwing star looking weapons and molded and cast those to match. The axe and scythe weapons were cut from some sheet plastic, and fabricated with some staff sections from the fodder bin.
Dante was mostly made from a Neca sin City Marv. I cut the coat down and sculpted the new collars. I also sculpted the bottom of the shirt to make it untucked, as well as sculpting the medallion on the necklace.
The head came from a Neca Divergent figure, can't remember the character name offhand. I cut down the hair, and sculpted the more fitting do. The hands were from the fodder bin, as we're the bigger hands I used to make the gauntlets. The client wanted them to be interchangeable, so this provided a good way to do that. I sculpted the gauntlets around and up from the bigger hands so they could plug into the wrist while covering the forearms.
I don't often work in this scale, but I'm quite happy with the final result, and the client seems quite happy too. The weapons were definitely the most challenging part on this one, but it made for some great learning experiences, both in sculpting and casting. Thanks for checking him out folks.
