I don't know if this is the right community or the right place on the board for this, but here goes.
I’ve never made a complete sculpture, though I do have some very limited experience with kneadatite (green stuff). I have always wanted to learn how to sculpt, and to that end I recently decided to give it a serious go.
My goal / desire is to make statues and busts of sci-fi/fantasy/comic book/videogame characters. I reviewed several mediums and selected Monster Clay hard and medium, because it is very reusable but also because I am already very experienced with resin casting using silicone molds and I intend to cast what I make.
Anyone have any advice for me on my path? Have I chosen a suitable medium? Any good artists for me to study? Any good sculpting videos, channels, books, or resources in general? Also, is Monster Clay Hard suitable for sculpting miniatures? Lastly, is it worth focusing on traditional sculpting for this sort of thing, or should I go with digital sculpting?
Thanks for your time.
