Hey Kent! I’d like to know how “perfect” the curves and such must be on the helmet when first sculpting it. I ask because I’m having trouble making things perfectly round. There’s always some lump here and there, and my hands are kind of shaky anyway, so when I do the work, it’s always wonky looking. I try to get as accurate as possible but I have to lift up my hands at some point because I’m taking so long.

Your sculpture is never going to be perfect, so don’t stress about that. The retopology phase will fix all the wonkiness.

Think of the sculpture as a sketch and the retopo is tracing over the sketch to extract the refined form.

Oooh, okay! That’s relieving, actually, because I keep messing up some parts, too. Sooo annoying… Thank you, Kent!
