“Bark At The Dude!”

Sprue Dude no51: BARK DUDE


I had the urge to create something quick. So I went through all my dried pieces of sprue goo and chose one.

This bit looked somewhat like a chunk of tree bark, which gave me an idea. I carved out some eye sockets and plopped in a couple of small eyes. Then, I gave him a large nose and a bushy moustache.


I scratched my head for a while, as I couldn’t come up with a way to put him on a base. So in the end I made a little frame and glued it to a base, then attached the rest to it.

To paint him I kept it simple by priming him in black, before applying a few dry brushes in lighter colours. Then after giving him a final brown/black wash he was done.

I like to think that the “Bark Dude” is all that remains of a once mighty race of tree monsters. Their wisdom was renowned all across the land, and to have control of him gives the holders ultimate power!
