Sometime back, a small model soldier company based in the USA commissioned me to make a master for his company in exchange for some of his production figures. The result was a mounted Mongol figure on a pony.
This was a great learning piece as I planned the work with sub-assemblies with a view towards making castings. To make great looking drapery and flowing hair, I used Duro green putty which had a rubbery consistency. Although in my opinion, this material is not so suitable for one-off pieces, its use in making masters cannot be underestimated.
This piece was never put into production.
