Yeah, do yourself an almighty favour, make use of those refs. I hale from a traditional painter/sculptor (...base relief) background and still references are an integral element in order too capture a accurate representation, well close enough anyway. Anatomy is a life long quest in a fruitless search for perfection few…
I have now hollowed out all the parts and they are almost at the 250$ limit without the floor, so I am taking it out and replacing it with a simple stand that connects the dowels I have made to be inserted into the characters feet and the tower base in order to keep them together and standing up. I was previously confused…
