He's got clothes now. I had some problems with the subsurface scatter maps and the mud it'd work best with material layering but my renderer cant do that.

Goblin I made practicing textures and renders.

I put a face on the skull to check the bone facial structure. I think it kinda looks like Sigourney Weaver.

Starting the high poly sculpt on the skeleton. I have the most fun Sculpting the secondary forms and establishing the light and shadows in the Sculpts surface.

What's your favorite step in 3D modeling?

A previous muscle study I did. with a comparison to the new skeleton

Here's the skull in the sci-fi helmet just for fun

Making a skeleton as a game asset, with a focus on anatomy and optimization (it's around 26k tris now). accurate vertebrae take up a lot for tri count.

I think that sculpting and understanding form in 3D has affected my 2D art greatly, but I still prefer the feel of sculpting and modeling.

Here's a 2D landscape I did, which is pretty rare for me but I still had fun with this one. Inspired by Dark souls and Caspar David Friedrich. Done in Clip Studio Paint pro

I don't do 2D as much as I used to I sort of switched to 3D over time but I still do a little bit. here's some characters I started for a pixel game Idea

I do enjoy anime and manga I just don't do many pieces in the genre, it's not my main cup of tea.

One of the most finished things I've done recently. It's a rat cowboy mini figure, I even got to print it, I learned a lot about designing for printing from my mistakes here.

Some more Godzilla sculpt I never finished them but I had a lot of fun watching all the old movies and picking out traits and designs I liked
