Description Getting closer to finishing this one. I just need to make a few changes but the end is in sight at least. This one was a challenge but I'm happy with how things are looking. I used marbles for the eyes so in order to make it look less freaky I airbrushed color where the whites of the eyes should be. Hope you all like it!

Thanks Rich! I ended up extending the end of the tail by a bit. He was too pudgy looking for me.

yeah, the eyes drew me in right away (next to all the textures of course), - they'll make the whole thing pop when ur finished for sure.

Thanks man! This one has been challenging but fun.
I ended up making the tail a little longer because it was a little pudgy for my tastes.

MeltedMedias In reply to RandyHand [2014-07-01 23:04:57 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I can kinda see what you mean now that you bring the tail to my attention. It probably seems a bit longer when they wrap their tails around something-which is how I see usually see em too, when they're not swimming, or floating, or whatever they do in between. Now I'm gonna keep my eyes peeled next time I see one, ha.

RandyHand In reply to MeltedMedias [2014-07-02 02:34:36 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, they are definitely more skinny in real life.
Mine will still be a little more stout but with the longer tail it helped take away from that.
I'm shooting for finishing it up by tomorrow and posting pictures shortly thereafter.

Aww, there's a darling little starfish! You wouldn't be hiding a snail behind there too?

However, I cannot approve of this 'eye'brushing business, now that I know it looked freaky.

RandyHand In reply to Fragile-yet-CunNINg [2014-06-30 13:44:43 +0000 UTC]

Good eye!
Actually it's a little oyster. (I'll do detail shots of the cast and crew when it's all finished)
Here's a pic of the marble eye to satisfy your curiosity.

But that's not creepy at all, I think it rather suits him!

RandyHand In reply to Fragile-yet-CunNINg [2014-06-30 13:53:08 +0000 UTC]

You think so?
If you see it in person it has the eerie kind of depth to it like those freaky fish that live towards the bottom of the ocean.
Which, by the way, I want to sculpt as well.

Fragile-yet-CunNINg In reply to RandyHand [2014-06-30 13:55:12 +0000 UTC]

I think so, and it sounds rather cool. Freaky fishies are awesome.

They are. I have too many fish ideas that I need to bring to life.

I ended up lengthening the end of the tail because it was a little too pudgy for me.
I think you'll like the finish shots even better.

Good eye Jami!
Yes indeed...there's a starfish on the left and the hidden one is an oyster.
I'll be posting shots of the details when it's all finished.
