      You’re full of good advice @gradyp! Thanks for taking the time to share this kind of insight with everyone. It makes this thread rich with valuable info.

      Your Melvin is an interesting take. Kinda like you intentionally put your own spin on the character’s design. You remember in Toy Story 3 when Mr Potato Head swapped his body for a tortilla? This version of Melvin is like that for me! He’s more flat than he is round and has a cactus-man aesthetic about him. A little bumpy in spots.

        Good stuff for a 30 minute exercise! It’s got some lumps and the legs look a little on the human side to me. But a recognizable sculpt nonetheless. Did you paint it via vertex paint or did you lay out UV’s?

        Overall you get an A this week Grady. Nice work 👌

          Much improved primitives @motsu! You polished them up very nice. Love the render too.

          For doing the primitives again along with the render, you’ve earned a “+” on your A 👍

            Thanks all!

            -> Grady: That is a good thought!  I am considering continuing to work on this little ‘diorama’, but using retopology, rock sculpting stencils, and micro displacement.  Then using your layer idea I could really flesh out the image.

            ->Kent: well, it IS incomplete, so a B would be quite fair! 😀

              That was done in 30 minutes? Very impressive!  Excellent color work as well.

                    All these pieces are amazing. The topology on the primitives is so clean!

                    I love the details, and especially the pumpkin faces.

                      I really like where you’re going with the human head. Nice start!

                        Finally Melvin is done. Thank you @arkesh, @gradyp for help.

                        Maybe it sound funny but i spent hours on it. For me it wasn’t easy to understand settings in Dyntopo.

                        During work we with my daughter have done some small Melvins).

                          All 3 Melvins are looking good! It’s apparent to me that you took the time to polish your sculpt. Shapes are strong and well-formed. Pose is good too. His torso may be a little skinny from the side, considering the girth of the torso from the front. But overall really job @alexsr. LOVE the little clay Melvins too!

                          Certainly an A for effort and quality but it pains me to give a C for incompleteness 😖

                              So, @theluthier … No week 4 announcement?

                                @theluthier … Melvin was the first sculpt of anything.  Took me hours. I finally got tired of working on it and moved on to the rest of the assignment. That was the first head sculpt. Still trying to get used to the brushes and the adjustments. I figured I’d be getting plenty of practice so I didn’t try to over achieve. 🙂

                                  After the hard work with melvin I had hardly any energy to sculpten ;).

                                  While working on Melvin and try to finished sculpt on time I noticed that he is still too heavy for me and I would like to practice even more the basic theories. But then tried some simpler shapes.

                                  Just as I wanted to post my result I saw that there are already showed sculpted tree trunks and awsome mushrooms. So I decided not to show my sculpts. They still were not very well and It would have looked like I did not have my own idea 😉

                                  The last few days I practiced a bit more every day and always used only a specific brush or setting.

                                  I was amazed how sculpts then daily became a bit easier. However, I always repeat my simple shapes and did not go into details. I also experimented with the texture brush for the ground. This need a lot of geometry to work 

                                  The beginning is very difficult. In particular working with the pen, navigate and handle the many settings. But with just a little exercise daily it quickly becomes more natural and easier.

                                  And that´s why I show my little nature scene with tree stump, pepples and mushroom collection and texture ground yet.

                                  Maybe this will also encourage other beginners.
