All are these are amazing. I love the knight and the fox models. I think the fox model would be an interesting character to explore for the monthly challenge.
-
@robbery thank you!! That fox is my take on a character from Larry MacDougall's 'Gwelf' (an upcoming book).

I love seeing these progress, so fun!
I just discovered an illustrator today, Chris Sickels, who works in 3D sculpture and I instantly thought of you. You've probably already heard of him but just in case I had to send you a link to his website.

@Tiffany-Thomas Ha, yes I know him. He's helped me along as I try to make stuff like this. I had made a little scene using some dollhouse furniture and it looked bad, he convinced me to make everything by hand. He's right, it just works better.
-
@kylebeaudette totally makes sense to make everything by hand, better continuity in the overall image :).
I love the progress you've made on your character, I can imagine his world and his expression is priceless, lol.
-
@Tiffany-Thomas thank you!
-
@kylebeaudette oh wow, I just realised Chris Sickels/Red Nose Studio shared your work on Instagram fairly recently after seeing this piece! I absolutely love his work, congrats
-
@carrieannebrown Thank you, yes that was amazing for me and so kind of him to do.

@kylebeaudette funnily enough I've just this week been working on my first attempt at any sculpture with air dry clay to get some creative time away from a screen because I've loved his work for so long. I wish I'd seen your guide before it, I used wooden skewers and tin foil for the structure and I had wait for it to dry for 2 days. No where near your level but it was fun (and frustrating)
-
@carrieannebrown wooden skewers and tinfoil will work just fine to start with. As you keep going though, invest in some cloth covered floral wire. You'll love it!
Air dry clay can be great to work with, different than what I'm using, but has some properties that can make you a lifelong fan of it!Good luck! Let me know if I can help with anything
-
@kylebeaudette It's very rough, I'll use your advice about more layers for a smoother finish if I feel the urge again
-
@carrieannebrown
wonderful!! -
Another angle on him, out on his adventure. -
No matter what, you gotta strut -
I wont finish this in time for the contest at this rate, but that's ok! I love where this is going and can see an opportunity to make a picturebook in a unique way
-
@kylebeaudette Awww, I'm sorry you won't be finished in time but so excited to see how this progresses! I love this guy!!!
-
@Tiffany-Thomas I might finish, it's just unlikely.
-
@kylebeaudette Good luck! I hope you do
