caffwin's Sculptures and more

caffwin · Jun 6th, 2011, 4:16:04 PM

Hi! I've been a huge Pokemon fan since it hit North America about 10 years ago. I started out drawing them when I was young and a couple years ago I started sculpting casually, so I thought I'd share my creations with you guys.

Here we go, in order from gen 1!

Weepinbell

...

Electabuzz

...

Gloom

...

Lapras

...

Parasect

...

Smeargle + Ditto

...

HootHoot + Noctowl

...

Skarmory

...

Spinarak

...

Milotic

...

Jellicent

...

Scrafty

...

Kyurem

...

I also did this painting recently! I got obsessed with this fire moth when I first saw it, and it's definitely made my favourites from gen 5. :D

Volcarona

...

I'm open to requests in the future but I can't guarantee that I will get around to most of them because I work at my own pace with school among other things that take up most of my time.

chocolate-kipp · Jun 6th, 2011, 4:22:10 PM

These are brilliant

That Volcarona is just gorgeous. The colors flow perfectly and Volcarona is a cool Pokemon in general and I love it gfdkjasd.

Your sculptures are great too! Spinarak is probably my favorite out of all of them but the Noctowl/Hoothoot are awesome.

Looking forward to seeing more from you if you do post anymore c:

Nastyjungle · Jun 6th, 2011, 4:22:56 PM

These are incredibly good as well as cute.
100% awesome, and that painting is really great too.
Fantastic stuff :)

makiri · Jun 6th, 2011, 4:39:50 PM

Hey you forgot the one you made for me!

I love your sculptures and its nice to see ones you never showed me like that Noctowl who looks absolutely amazing.

reyscarface · Jun 6th, 2011, 4:42:40 PM

lol i thought that was digital art, its just so well done...

caffwin · Jun 6th, 2011, 5:20:04 PM

Thank for all the nice comments, everyone!

Also Paul, you're so right. I went ahead and added it. :D

I didn't add all of them but there are definitely quite a few that I'm missing haha.

**Bummer** · Jun 6th, 2011, 5:27:01 PM

Did you use Whirlwind? Because I'm completely blown away.

Hoothoot and Noctowl must be my favorite out of the bunch. Partially because of the choice, partially because of the dynamic pose. You've got yourself some serious knack for this!

Kevin Garrett · Jun 6th, 2011, 5:56:03 PM

The sculptures are great. You didn't spare any details and I like how you gave some of them texture.

Cartoons! · Jun 6th, 2011, 6:05:05 PM

Very cool. They look so soft and squishy and smooth. I wouldn't mind that Lapras on my desk.

Ivysaur · Jun 6th, 2011, 6:07:00 PM

Wow, these are amazing lol! I like the Lapras best so far, its adorable. I love how much character your sculptures have (:

breh · Jun 6th, 2011, 6:22:33 PM

Very nice and cute sculptures. Smeargle one was funny, lol

Ahaha pokemon pickup lines

Anyway, would like to see more.

***Zracknel**** · Jun 6th, 2011, 7:05:24 PM

So cool! I think these are awesome.

I used to mess around with polymer clay ages ago... not sure if that's what you've used for these, but I never figured out how to get such smooth shapes (as opposed to stuff that's covered in fingerprints). I'm pretty amazed by your technique-- everything looks so clean and crisp!

**Arcticblast** · Jun 6th, 2011, 7:26:35 PM

These are all amazing. I love it when some new guy just randomly shows up and has GREAT art.

**RitterCat** · Jun 6th, 2011, 7:43:59 PM

The sculptures are amazing. That Lapras is so incredibly cute, but they're all just fabulous. Also, you're not a shabby painter by any means. disc'd

TEA_DEMON · Jun 6th, 2011, 7:52:25 PM

oh my god these are amazing. the detail on that scrafty is just mind boggling. have a luvdisc, good sir.

Insanely amazing sculptures caffwin! I have seen some Pokemon sculptures, but none are mindblowingly good as yours. Also, that Skarmory is sooo adorable, it looks like it could be a pre-evolution or something. :3

JarardoMartino · Jun 6th, 2011, 9:01:13 PM

These are all incredible!
What material did you use to sculpt them?

Lanturn314 · Jun 6th, 2011, 10:26:31 PM

These are all absolutely amazing, but the Lapras is definitely my favorite. Probably the most adorable thing I've seen all week!!!

Xaqwais · Jun 7th, 2011, 3:09:41 AM

Repeating sentiments, this is mind-blowing!

**paintseagull** · Jun 7th, 2011, 11:47:18 AM

Really really great!! Awesome style and super precise execution, especially on that Kyurem holy cow

Todris052 · Jun 7th, 2011, 11:52:43 AM

Best thing i seen for LONG time. It's that epic. Disc'd. Oh, BTW, do you think you can do an Ambipom?

Fishy · Jun 7th, 2011, 2:18:31 PM

gaaah caffwin you're so fucking boss

those sculptures are so good, definitely a much higher quality than I had expected when you first said you sculpted, really mind blowing. they look so much like the actual pokemon that like rey said, it almost looks digital, it's so clean and well done. kudos!!!

i feel like i want to request my own sculpture you could give to me at indy but man idk what on earth i would want. :3 but if you'd be willing to make something i will totally make up my mind!!!!

YOU'RE SO GREAT.

Todris052 · Jun 7th, 2011, 4:04:05 PM

Oh, btw: What are you using to make those? Fimo/Phimo/Whatever?
