It’s been quite a while since I posted, or sculpted much so starting on a new character today. Still procrastination on the hands though but I’ll start them eventually lol. ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/nomadsculpt/original/2X/8/84d6a0a2f34bf58ad8c0bd962cc436b143873fe9.jpeg) ---

I know where you’re coming from. I often stare at my models with hesitation and a ‘‘do that piece in a minute’’ approach lol ---

Some changes to the face and got off my butt and added hands, I think this will become a nice base mesh for some future sculpts. Still some proportions and muscle groups I’d like to iron out yet ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/nomadsculpt/original/2X/0/084ea422aa16b547c99b6ed4736b156e345e156a.jpeg) ---

Exactly, and what’s worse is when I do get around to it it’s always “this ain’t so bad, why do I keep putting it off?” And then the cycle continues lol ---

Quick 20 minute sculpt, trying to have some fun and was just seeing what would come of it. ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/nomadsculpt/original/2X/0/0918b77b448b4ba67a2abf7f1e158be171093365.jpeg) ---

I love this “let it go” so much as well. But often it doesn’t end in same good result as yours 😉 ---

Trust me i struggle with it too usually, but with a stroke of luck and persistence it works just right lol. I tend to get stuck in the whole if I don’t have an idea I won’t sculpt as much and I just feel like that has been holding me back a lot. ---

Starting an orc tonight, might try and actually do more detail and alphas but for now just having some fun with it. ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/nomadsculpt/original/2X/9/90fab4c9d4b60b363843d8a2fdf25b50c245d3ff.jpeg) ---

Playing more with lighting and painting while on my break at work ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/nomadsculpt/original/2X/e/ed18cbb800196151d2131edc868337aeb8118e3d.jpeg) ---

Nice sculpt, nice SSS effect. Is it painted only or some fancy trick? I played around with a duplicated object and additive material ---

For the sss I used the duplicated and additive material, I saw the tip from one of your replies to a post actually and it was a huge help. ---

I don’t know about that the sample I saw in that post looked fantastic, I hope I can keep improving as I mess around with it more ---

Going to try and keep all my artwork posting in this to keep from spamming art posts, starting a new sculpt and got the Gumby body down now to get to the real fun and get the proportions and details started and maybe finish a sculpt for once lol ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/nomadsculpt/original/2X/9/9a9042544eee9ed972b285120ef44ce4dbfaf7bd.jpeg) ---

I wish I had more time to sculpt so I could be farther along in this sculpt, but still making progress and having a blast when I do get the time ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/nomadsculpt/original/2X/5/5dd05f39210a17df196124b4611a6255cf3c43fd.jpeg) ---

This is going to be lovely again. Very nice colors as well. But those earrings? I hope it’s plastic, otherwise their weight is frightening. ---

I did make them smaller as well as added some more elasticity in the ears, if you think those are heavy you should see the ones I wear in real life lol ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/nomadsculpt/original/2X/4/445aa5b421e3466eba6b70318500880f042e781d.jpeg) ---

> [@Whistlecrunch](#): > > if you think those are heavy you should see the ones I wear in real life lol Hahaha - well sorry. I shouldn’t speak up where I only have limited knowledge about. Looks more believable to me now….even though…ouch…that much? 😂 You see, I have no real idea what I am talking about. Keep up the good work and do the earrings exactly to your likeness. It will be fantastic, I am sure 🤩 [Next page](https://forum.nomadsculpt.com/t/good-to-sculpt-again/4711.md?page=2)
