Second sculpt: sketchin!

Here's the sketch I'm going with- nothing too complex, but I think he'll be fun to sculpt.

Tribal assignment: Image Board

Trying to get everything set up for our new assignment, which is sculpting a tribal-themed character in an animation style. Here's what I'm thinkin so far-






Love the patterns and intense colors of the two ladies, and the practicality of the mountain nomads!
I'm also trying to consider the environment my little duder is gonna be living in, because that'll effect how he dresses. And since we're supposed to be using minimal clothing elements- I figure a kind of island chain ecosystem would be cool, coz you've got mountains, volcanic activity, and a pretty diverse system of Flora and Fauna- but it's usually warm enough to warrant not wearing a shirt nor shoes.

Also I decided not to give my character a weapon- I see a lot of tribal-esqe characters with clubs and spears and weapons, and bleh, kinda bored with that.

I think he'll have a rad fishing pole or some sporting equipment :D
