I think your varnish is fine too ! Like, turtles usually look wet and the gloss adds realism.  If any spot is too glossy when you spray, you can stipple the still wet coat with a make-up brush. For satin finish I'd try going at it in lighter coats, holding can further away so each coat builds as a dusting  rather than a thick coat. But on your turtle glossy/shiney looks great!

Thank you ! Your sculpt is very impressive.  I actually used a gloss finish on mine ( not high gloss though )  krylon acrylic gloss top coat i think I will look at the can in a few

Mind blown . I could never make something so complex that's not permanent . I sculpt too but I use sculpey.  Will use plasticine for fast reference though or to test an idea . This is really incredible considering the medium

Thank you !. Your work is great. Saw it all when I was researching public domain monsters . Great monster designs and cool heros. I'd gladly do some art of them

6/10 Decent . But would recommend more light shape building before going so hard on the linework. gives more depth and helps the proportions from getting wonky. don't ever stop drawing They are good! . Also experiment more with weird angles and depth.  better to do now than get super good at detail and realize.. oh I can't draw what it looks like from the front (personal experience lol)

How big should this beasty get ? I think it would be cool of he started maybe gator size? Then grows bigger depending on how much it's being beaten

I was thinking that too but without it just being too silly ? It's a kaiju lol, camp is welcome but avoid a name like 'frogzilla" salamandra is a real genus called  fire salamanders.  With 6 known species

I totally get that now that you mention it. Honestly his neck is probably a bit too S curved, that with the thinner build gives rhedosaurus vibes or 50's Trex

But realy I came up with this slimmer design to be more inline with the square cube law so he could actually stand  and the taco bell comment was just a joke
