First try at digital sculpting: Sculptris

[pokrad]

Those are my first attempts in Sculptris and computer sculpting at all. Before that I made few pieces using SuperSculpey and that was my experience - so I must say : this is fantastic piece of software !!!
It was really easy to get started - almost like working with real clay.
I used only Blender for posing the female character(made a simple skeleton) and the bracelet, all the rest is pure Sculptris:





Criticism welcome

Thx, as I said, "mental process" is not much different than the clay sculpting, and that is why I like the Sculptrias so much
Tried also "Sculpting mode" in Blender, sure it works, but somehow it does not have that "natural flow" of Sculptris. Those two tools could be a great "tandem".
Sure, Blender is more complicated, but it has to be as it is can do much more than just sculpting. For the next project I'll try to do more complicated figure with non-organic stuff made in Blender and organic in Sculptris...

Pure sculptris as usual, started from a ball
