TMNT ninja turtle bust finished

Here is the finished sculpture. Finished the skin details and wrinkles, used turtle references for the scales and made them light so they wouldn't take away from the piece.

New Ninja turtle bust in progress

Just started working on a new bust this week. Another ninja turtle piece, the third piece out of four different expressions. For this one i wanted to go slightly larger and i also want to make him rougher and more realistic with skin textures and scars. Here is the progress i have so far.

Concept bust, the starting idea i was going for. I am going to try for a more subtle expression for him in the end.
Here is the block in, about 1.5 hrs in.


Here the block in is finished and i am starting to work on the expression and forms, 4hrs in.

Here is where i am currently. I started refining more and added some forms to the face for the expression. Also started defining the shell.
