Coming Soon, 221-206BC and beyond, all the way to CMWS 2020! AD
Welcome to my worklog of the Scratch build entry for the CMWS2020.
Once again I am delving into the history books for this one.
I simply love doing this.
This one is dedicated to the "QIN" Dynasty and the Terracotta Army which was found in 1974.
Much much more to come...
The sketches are just the first rough ideas.
Details, details and many more dteials, all true to the theme and handmade as usual! Thats the promise.

ok guys, its time for an update now.

The QIN Dynasty or rather THE NEXT OF QIN`s army is slowly awaking.

first of all I would like to share a video of me making one of QINS heads and then a mold of silicone to replicate it with plaster of paris.

I made the first head with clay but cannot bake it at 900°s so i opted to use it as a prop for the mold.

thats good, because i could then make more than one.

the next step was to start raising an army. i am going to need archers, henchmen, infantry, commanders etc.. 

what i did was, i bought a pack of little solddiers and cut them in half, down their spines, then i made a silicone mold again to replicate and multiply them. i still need to dremel off the overspilt parts, but the results were just as i wanted. and the army is growing.

i will be making chiese ancient bells myself which will be uncoinventional reservoirs too. thats the next step.

oh and by the way, i actually made a small sketch this time, but it has already evolved too, so this will not be what i now have in mind. 🙂

Hi guys, here is the second making of video of my new project called NEXT OF QIN, The Eternal Army. Its all about the Base upon which the QIN Army will make its last stand here. With "Next of QIN" I will be yet again be delving into the history books with this scratch build. With all the research and details that it deserves. EPIC is the word! Its all about the Terracotta Army that was dug up in 1974 in China. It is by far the greatest discovery of the century and was Built by none the less that QIN SHI HUANG. Also the name patron of China. QIN-A. Its estimated to be over 2300 years old. The whole army hasnt been uncovered yet but with every square inch dug up, new chapters in chinese history are being revealed. More to come.

hi guys, first of all thanks to CM for prolonging the deadline. covis has really brought up certain problems that needed more time to rig here. so i am glad for the extra two weeks.

i wish it were a full month though.

anyway. its the same situation all over the world so i must be content too.

After the BIG BAD BATTLE BOX, I now am all in onn THE NEXT OF QIN.

here are some progress pics.

i started the base and the mid section. a long way to go and i am using the laser too this time because of the lost time. is still full or more hand made parts than most mnods but am saving time a bit for cutting at least.

all parts are of course my own design and not just copied and printed.

so here goes.

thanks to coolermaster for the case, keyboards, psu and other small things.

also thanks to thermaltake for their great cooling hardware and ram etc.. more details to both the partners hardware will follow as soon as i integrate them.

 

one of the chinese defining features was getting the the cirled up roof sides, but i found a way of doing that too 🙂
