🎨 REINDEER

I didn't release how different reindeer are from deer until sculpting this. It has a lot of moose features which are a lot of fun to sculpt! Big nose, big shoulders, etc. There are a few things I exaggerated and simplified to fit everything together better. It is a big longer to make the pose look nicer, and the antlers are especially big! Very happy with how this one turned out. The fur was especially relaxing to do! Just put on music and went to town~

🎨 SNOW ELF HUNTER

So I had not sculpted a man in a *long time*. This whole sculpt felt weird in the beginning, and man does it show! I watched Arcane before this, and lined the face more heavily because I am so in love with that art style. Didn't come out looking like Arcane of course, but made me more confident in where the planes of the face are. I originally had more straps and stuff, but with this design less turned out to be more. The stitchwork really sold this model! 

🎨 ICE ELEMENTAL

This one was SO silly. The whole process was just, chaos. I sorely underestimated the design challenges here haha This sculpt was done in many, many short 15 minutes sessions. I had to keep walking away and coming back with fresh eyes. It was a weird road, but I am very pleased where it ended up! I need to see this printed in every translucent resin! I love models that look awesome even when unpainted :)

🎨 YETI

Yes, seriously, I started with the thing on the left. I actually show some of my process here! That video is for my students, but I made it public temporarily because I was crazy proud of it. This is one of my favorite before and after's ever! Absolutely ridiculous how much changed here. A good showcase of what I really love to sculpt :) Not much else to say here. I sculpted a lot and it was a blast.

Thank you for reading!
