Sculpey Thylacine

So this is what I'm working on for a week already, a Tasmanian Tiger Sculpture!
It takes very long because I never sculpted before, but Super Sculpey is awesome stuff and it's really fun to work with it!

Thylacine, made out of Super Sculpey
This is what it looks like at the Moment, I'd say it's about 70% done.

Look what I got!

The Animators Survival Kit by Richard Williams
I found out that it was 10€ cheaper on Amazon after buying it, but I wanted it NOW!
This book contains almost everything about animation, even how to animate a falling piece of dough.. It's not bound to a certain art style at all, everything can be applied to any art style.

I also found this at the Art store today:

Kids draw: Dogs and more
Chris Hart! Even though this book is aimed at kids, his drawings are awesome and helpful :)

and:

Massive amounts of Super Sculpey
8lb/3,6kg of Super Sculpey!
I'm only going to keep 3 or 4 packs, the others are for friends.

Happy new year everyone!

banded palm civet mascot character for the ni-limits mascot contest
This was a Mascot I made for a contest of the Ni-Limits company. Apparently I was the only one who submitted a valid entry, so they made a new deadline in 7 months.

a pose from a tex avery cartoon
"What the hell?" - pose from a Tex Avery Short

a pose inspired by tex avery cartoons
Practice on Line of Action, anatomy is wrong but at least the pose looks not that bad imho.

exaggerated cartoon expression
More tries on exaggeration.. this is not really convincing though.

banded palm civet sketch
A sketch I did while brainstorming for the Mascot contest. He's now welcoming visitors here.

A Thylacine sketch from an openCanvas Session, colored by a friend. She did a nice job on the outlines and coloring, and I did a poor on the sketch ;)
