My Beholders (step-by-step and Sir ForScale's doom)

[Teskal]

2nd step-by-step posting. I couln't put all pictures in one post. Sorry.

 

 

First time I started to make eye-stalks:

This is B1

 

 

 

Forming the tongue for B2

 

Also B1 get a tongue and eye balls on the stalks.

 

You can see in the next pictures I put hotglue on the rest of the body and eye-stalks. Als make visible veins.

 

 

 

 

y.B. get eyestalks. B3 is also with a completed face. B3 will have a nearly closed mouth.

 

 

B3 and B2 get also eye-stalks. This time I did not make the eye balls out of green stuff. I'm not sure, but I think I will give B1 also these pearls instead of the GS-Balls

 

 

Sir Forscale will get petrified. He got hit by a beam.

Nice!!!

In the moment I have a small issue with the 3rd beholder. He doesn't want to be on a base. The super glue doesn't hold it very long.

 

So I though of making a disintegrating ray. But where this ray hit something, the disintegrating process would start there and the ray would touch nothing and nothing holds the beholder.... :-)

I can imagine how this could be done. your base would have to be especially heavy and all other materials very light weight. The disintegration ray would strike the weighted base. The beholder would be suspended in air by the rod that forms the disintegration ray, and can hover somewhere other than the base. That particular eye stalk will have to be made of material that can bear the load without sagging.

The d-ray will be out of a welding rod and part of the eye stalk. Same as the petrification eye stalk which hits Sir Forscale. (I wonder how hard it would be to bend spring steel.)

 

Maybe the desintegration ray hit the victim and but the desintegration starts not where the victim was hit. But I need first to get a new mini for this. It should be out of metal. I had some trouble reinforcing the bones Sir Forscale till he hold the beholder. :-)

 

If I do it ever again, I will use aluminium foil for big beholders, not a wooden ball, to make it less heavy.
