I think it looks great, I love the mushrooms.

[Lovejoy]

I really like it, loads of character. 

I'd add some roots or something to the feet though...

Not sure to give him some human like feet or just roots 

Thanks

Very cool.  I'd buy that.  Rootish 'feet' would look better imo. 

[Papa Spanky]

roots for sure.

HI everyone  

I've done a bit more to him.


What to you think?

Is he good enough for me to send off to get cast up? I cant decide  



thanks
George

Personally I'd say that looks pretty dang cool as it is.  I guess a lot of sculpting is knowing when to stop and this guy has just enough groovy little details without coming across as too busy.  Anyway, sign me up for one! 

[Garanhir]

Oh, absolutely.  I wouldn't want to overwork it, and right now it's got just the right blend of detail and character in the pose, without getting too busy.

If there's a fault amongst some modern sculpts these days, it's that one or two sculptors are so very accomplished at their art they fill a miniature with loads of exquisite detail, at the cost of leaving the poor painter with little space to express him- or herself.  It's not all that new, I know; there are old WD articles that talk about getting rid of detail to make room for the painting.

I like him.   Good compromise on the feet, too.

[Doomsdave]

I like him as-is.

[redshadows]

Thanks
