I am making a blobfish but I can't get it right.

I am a Zbrush beginner. I was trying to make a fish like the one in the picture, but I can't seem to get it right. Can you guys make this fish? I made an 8 minute video of me making it. I would be happy if you could give me feedback on it.

Hello @YOSHIYUKI_SAKABE , I would recommend starting from the general proportions and volumes, then placing the features (fins, mouth, eyes and "nose") while again focusing on proportions. You should look at pictures from different angles, and you can even overap your sculpt with the reference. When you're happy with this blockout, you could try inflate brush and cloth brushes, together with Dam standard, to get the bloated feeling of the surface.

I hope this helps! Keep up the good work!

Looking at pictures of blob fishes in water might help you figure out the underlying shapes that got blobified.
