Gobby the Goblin (I would think it’s like Gah-be)

This is my latest little piece. I was working on some tutorials and browsing magazines and felt the create bug hit me. I was about ¾ done with him and started to hate him cause I feel like he is turning out like all my sculpts.. Same style.. Which makes me sad. There could of been more detail on the vest and backpack, but that’s when I started to detest him, and my pen was causing my finger to be sore. I know, I know.. Excuses, excuses..

So.. I feel like I need to work on some more lessons to try and branch out. Work on for real, for real realism and maybe some stylized approaches.

I was also playing around with Keyshot renderer. Gotta work on better bump maps, texture maps, etc.. Pretty sweet though, but a lot to learn on it.

Just got to keep on practicing I guess. I need to find someone to be a model for me so I can take some good reference photos. Any volunteers :D

Luckily, I have about a list of 30 some lessons (hours, maybe days worth of material). But, it was my goal this year to become a better sculptor. Stupid goals and being tough.
