In the last sculpt we began with the guy you’d least like to run into at an “Eyes Wide Shut” type party. Over the course of two hours I tried to figure out the complicated layering that is samurai armor. Then I sculpted some of the cloth that will peek through, imaginatively accommodating the arrival
In this stream I’ll create the samurai’s undergarments.
In the second grade a few of us started the imaginatively named “Artists’ Club.” To be a part of the Artists’ Club you had to follow a set of rules. You couldn’t draw from reference, you had to draw from memory, and God help you if you traced; that was a lifetime ban! Some rules

And illuminating too, as @tenpoundpixel gives us this .gif demonstrating his process: As we speak, Mr. Pixel is hard at work creating another set of astonishing
#ScreenshotSaturday! Chess Tactics RPG feat. @tenpoundpixel! I’ve been rolling out the Chess Tactics RPG announcement, slowly, in bits and pieces over the course of a few years now.
