Hi, first post for the 5$ Sculpture assignment! I used school-grade plasticine that is found at local store (around 1.5$ in my country), and a modified old ballpoint pen with a wire loop on top for the tool. Mostly I focused on the overall gesture and form from all angles- although I realized eventually that the legs are too short. But I'm proud of what I'm making! Can't want to follow the next lesson!

Hey everyone and David, thank you for making this lovely course. I've always liked drawing creatures and I'd love to know how to give more dynamic or life-ness to my creature along the way. In this first assignment, since the primary animal is primate/ape, my instinct tells me to mix it with other arboreal animal, in this case two-toed sloth. Although this is not a concept class for sure, I'd love to incorporate some of the real function of each limbs and apply knowledge from your class. I did my best to draw it from imaginations after doing tooooonsss of studies haha. Really enjoy the class so far, looking forward to the next lessons!
