Still a work-in-progress, but I have the head and jaws almost done: link Comments and criticism appreciated. CC

Oh, and like I said, the head section could be used on its own (as if bursting vertically from the ground) or together with the body section (as if bursting diagonally). CC |

Better and better! I really like the way you show how it's improving with each step. |

An impressive project! It's going to be awsome when it's finished. |

Very nice work CC, are you working from memory, or do you have reference pics to look at? |
| Cacique Caribe | 24 May 2007 3:17 a.m. PST |
Thanks everyone. Doc, pics, for the most part. Some of the details are not very clear in some of them though, and so must be extrapolated. CC |

As you can tell in this shot, I still need to get rid of all of those fingerprints of mine, plus add a little transitional "flesh" at the base of the jaw sections: link I just might finally be done with the thing this coming weekend. I never knew that a figure could take so long to sculpt. Makes me appreciate all the real sculptors out there that much more. CC |

Wow, every update looks better and better. Great work, CC! |

Looks better and better, CC! |

An interesting project Cacique – what rules/format of game do you intend to run using these creatures? |
| TredHedJon | 24 May 2007 9:25 a.m. PST |
>.< I wish liscensing things wasnt such an issue. I would love to see this on the market. CC…I have to echo here….works of art, truly. |

Hollyhocks,
Not sure about that yet. I loved the first Tremors movie and thought it could be played somehow. Apparently, I'm not the only one who has wondered about that:
TMP link TankerJake,
What if it was not sculpted exactly the same, nor was the same name ever used? In that case, wouldn't they just be another big mutant worm? :) CC |

I wish I had seen this angle shot earlier: picture I wasn't really quite sure about the skin folds and the texture and limits of the skin-beak contact areas. Oh well. Too late to change some of that now. :) CC |

nice one CC, that is looking really good. |
| KennKong | 25 May 2007 7:29 a.m. PST |
Looks fantastic! Great work. |
| Cacique Caribe | 25 May 2007 8:15 a.m. PST |
I'm really trying to complete it before next Wednesday, when we are scheduled to travel to Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands for vacation. Fingers crossed. CC |
| Cacique Caribe | 25 May 2007 10:02 a.m. PST |
Actually, it is a race to complete it before Wednesday or before I run out of GreenStuff. :) That is one big sucker! CC |
| Cacique Caribe | 29 May 2007 5:55 a.m. PST |
I have a trip to the Caribbean from May 30 (tomorrow) until June 13th. Unfortunately, other than fine-tuning the "ball joints" in the triple jaw, I could not complete the figure as I was hoping to originally. If they'll let me take GreenStuff in my check-in luggage, I'll try to work on it a bit while I'm away. Take good care of yourselves. CC |

I'm currently taking my big worm on a roadtrip . . . TMP link CC |

A huge salute to you, Cacique – A splendid sculpting job, and very professional in appearance. :) |
| Cacique Caribe | 02 Jul 2007 7:52 a.m. PST |
Covert, Thanks. I am still a veritable newbie when it comes to sculpting. I really got hold of my first batch of putty about a year or so ago. Even then, it was just to repair or slightly modify existing figures. I just hope I can make the Tremors worms justice in my attempt. CC |
