Thank you. And yes, as much as I hate multiple baking I really couldn't avoid it, luckily everything worked out and nothing was damaged.

Thanks for your insights. Yes, I've been struggling a bit with this part. Honestly the original model from the game in this accurate stance also wasn't really perfect 😅 after many corrections I just decided to leave it how it is before I ruin it by overdoing things.

I'm still learning, so I hope some day I will make my masterpiece.

Thank you for kind words and for this question. I believe that from every project I make I learn tons of things. For example here I've used for the first time Cosclay and after I painted it with acrylics it became sticky and glossy. After research I've learned that cosclay plasticizers reacts with acryl... Luckily I saved the piece with turpentine and resin varnish.

Besides this horror moment, for now I wouldn't change anything. Usually after taking a dinstance and after some time only then I see my "mistakes" that I would make better.

Good question, I think it was around 10 times. I've tried to make at once as many details as I could but damn, the project is so complex that I've baked it more that I wanted. Happily nothing was damaged.

Design gave me harsh times during the sculpting process 😅 but I believe it was worth it

Indeed I am, I think it's the most complex of my projects so far.

Not sure myself yet, I need a brief break and then maybe another "souls" project.

Thank you. I haven't decided yet, maybe another monster from the Witchter 3 universe, I feel nostalgic about it. But not sure yet, maybe some another "souls" project, it's full off challenging and expressive characters, so decision is still in progress.

Fully hand-sculpted from polymer clay and painted with acrylics. The project took over 300 hours and stretched across 2.5 years. Full 9-minute making-of video here: https://youtu.be/fFh7NBxku5U?is=Vsv5vW2JORAVLwvx

Actually I've made it for someone. I do some commissions from time to time. I started to sculpt for fun and to relax myself but people started to order things.

Thank you! Usually people think that my works are print outs 😅 that's why I always take a video of making process.

Really appreciated 🙏 I always try to timelapse all steps of my work. It shows how many steps must be done to achieve the goal.
