From Nothing to an Epic War Troll | Full Zbrush Sculpting by Andrea Tarabella (8h Uncut at x4 Speed)

 

Hello dear Adventurers, Collectors and Merchants!
Many of you asked me to share a full timelapse of my sculpting process, and here it is!
This summer has been a bit tough due to health reasons, so recording uninterrupted was not always possible. But I managed to put this together for you, and I’m really happy to finally share it.


🎥 In this uncut 1h35 video (aprox 8h of real sculpting at x4 speed), you’ll see the entire process of creating an intimidating armored War Troll miniature in ZBrush, from the first blockout to the final details.

This mighty War Troll, together with an entire new army, will be part of our next 3D printable collection, coming to Guildhall, Tribe, and Patreon in November 2025.

Sculpting is my passion, and for Artisan Guild every miniature is crafted with dedication, patience, and the love for the art of digital sculpting.

🖌️ Every plate of armor, tusk and skin wrinkle been carefully shaped to bring this troll knight to life. My goal is to create miniatures that are not only visually stunning but also optimized for 3D printing, with crisp details and a dynamic presence on the tabletop, easy and fun to paint.

🔍 Whether you’re a digital sculptor looking to learn new techniques, or a miniature enthusiast curious to see how I sculpt Artisan Guild minis, this video captures the full journey of sculpting.

From the raw digital clay of a ZBrush sphere to a fully realized creature, you’ll discover what goes into forging miniatures that enrich RPGs and wargames alike.

⚔️ At Artisan Guild there are no shortcuts because we are fueled by passion: only hours of work, design, and iteration to ensure every model feels alive and unique.

Thank you for watching and supporting Artisan Guild.
Enjoy the journey!
