Description

Adam Clarke has been a sculptor for almost 30 years! He specialises in 28–32mm tabletop wargaming miniatures. Having gained his initial experience at the Citadel Sculptor Training Programme, he went on to work for Games Workshop. Adam has sculpted miniatures in epoxy putties (e.g. green stuff) for production in metal, resin, and hard plastic—more recently, in polymer clays for resin production. After spending some time in the industry, including work with Privateer Press, Reaper Miniatures, and others, Adam founded his own company, Black Scorpion Miniatures, which is still going strong 20 years later!

For the first time! Adam has put together a structured miniature sculpture course, eager to teach some of the techniques he has learned over the years.

This two-day workshop guides students through the principles and techniques needed to sculpt a 32mm miniature from armature to completion. The course includes theory, demonstrations, and practical exercises, with Adam providing personalised guidance, constructive feedback, and one-on-one support.
