Hello from Maine! My name is Nicolas I have just created a Steemit account and wanted to share my hobby with you all. I sculpt figures for games in the micro scale for tabletop use and collectors around the world. Here are a few recent examples of my work.

I will periodically post my latest work on here. Each figure is hand made using wire frames on top of wine corks. I then mix clay and sculpt each figure in layers, They are 28mm tall. Thank you for looking :)

Cool skills you have and welcome aboard!!

That's awesome work, man! Excellent attention to detail you have there.

Where in Maine are you from? I grew up in Sullivan - just east of Ellsworth, and have lived all over the eastern and central part of the state, from Bangor to Bar Harbor to Sedgwick. I live in Austin, Texas now, but I miss those awesome summer days swimming at my friends' lake camps and out in Taunton Bay.

Central Maine right outside of Augusta, I know what you mean. I have traveled all over and nothing beats coming back to peace and tranquility. It is one of the few places that never seems to change.

Yeah, it's the fact that it never seems to change that inspired my move to Austin, lol. I'm not too familiar with that part of central Maine, but I used to spend time with family in the Wiscasset/Bath/Damariscotta area. I remember going to the original Reny's there.

And Laverdiere's... oh man, did I miss Laverdiere's when they went away.

Your art work is very interesting you are quite talented

Thank you!

Great art work. Your very, very talented and I cannot wait to see what you post next.

What material are they made of?

Video sped up of you making these sculptures would be great! Maybe even some kind of tutorial for people who want to try it out?
