3+ hours. Felt fast initially then it felt like wack a mole with the fine features, technique or harder clay? I cheated and used some recycled Chavant I had could have been hard, but I want harder. Paper clip and pencil and tried flaming it once. Will be searching for harder clay or grogless water based. Not to blame the tools but some clay just doest take detailslike eyelashes at this scale.

After seeing that most of your critiques were on the documentation, I decided to re-upload my sculpture here after making lighting and background adjustments. No more kitty.

Thanks, Andrew, for the critiques. Very helpful in training one's eye.

Good feedback vid Andrew thank you. I’ll take on board the photography tips for future assignments. Well done to the winners, and all that shared their work.

Well done everyone who entered, congratulations to the fellow winners, and thank you Andrew for the appreciation and comments. I watched a couple of the follow alongs and found the advice to focus on contours really helpful. If anyone is looking for a silver bullet, that made this second sculpture of mine a huge improvement on my first one. Happy sculpting everyone!

Much appreciated for the review on my first pose!

Yay! 🥈🙂😎

Thank you, Andrew, for your perceptive observations, and thanks to all who participated offering much to learn from!

Cool! People are so skilled, it's so interesting to see how everyone does things slightly different.

Thank you for all the constructive comments. Working on my short gesture sculpt now.

Yeah... camera! I think many of the images (including mine) were taken with a phone camera, which, as you say, distorts horribly! For my normal sculptural work, I use a mid-range DSLR with a 50mm lens, so it forces me to back away a bit, and reduce the distortion.

Thank you for taking the time to review the sculptures. Was fun to make , ill sculpt again! Ill try to get the length on my torso better.

Thank you for the critiques Andrew. I will work on it. Congratulations to the winners🥳

lol. You win a new car....ving. Good one.
