Experimenting with painting my sculpts, adopting a similar workflow to my 2d work. Fun. #tobygray #tobysbrain #art #drawing #illustration #digitalart#nomad #nomadsculpt #3d #3dmodeling #comics #comic #monkey #pmd #plungermonkey #plungermonkeydynamo #ipmdt #itsplungermonkeydynamotime #cartoon

Trying this post again: Second fuzzball guy. Learned a lot recently, trying new things like painting in shadows to highlight forms. #tobygray #tobysbrain #art #digitalart #nomad #nomadsculpt #3d #3dmodeling #comics #comic #monkey #pmd #plungermonkey #plungermonkeydynamo #ipmdt #cartoon

Working on the next fuzzball character. Tried painting in some shadows to highlight forms, I’m liking the effect. #tobygray #tobysbrain #art #digitalart #digitalillustration #nomad #nomadsculpt #3d #3dmodeling #comics #comic #monkey #pmd #plungermonkey #plungermonkeydynamo #ipmdt #cartoon

I might be done…maybe. Regular version and a fun, pixelated variation. #tobygray #tobysbrain #art #digitalart #digitalillustration #digitaldrawing #nomad #nomadsculpt #3d #3dmodeling #comics #comic #monkey #pmd #plungermonkey #plungermonkeydynamo #ipmdt #itsplungermonkeydynamotime #cartoon

Changed the hairification method again, tedious but I think I like the look so far. More to do. #tobygray #tobysbrain #art #digitalart #nomad #nomadsculpt #3d #3dmodeling #comics #comic #monkey #pmd #plungermonkey #plungermonkeydynamo #ipmdt #itsplungermonkeydynamotime #cartoon

Still trying to sculpt hair. Last two weeks have been busy and/or sick, so not much studio time. #tobygray #tobysbrain #art #drawing #nomad #nomadsculpt #3d #3dmodeling #comics #comic #monkey #pmd #plungermonkey #plungermonkeydynamo #ipmdt #itsplungermonkeydynamotime #cartoon

I’ve always loved a challenge. I’m also an Eagle Scout and was a scoutmaster for 8 years. I don’t know how practical it is in the modern world, but it makes power outages in the winter not a big deal 🤣

I LOVE to battle the cold! Cold weather camping, testing out the wool jackets and gear I make. I camp (usually just on a tarp on the ground with all my wool layers) on the coldest day every winter. Coldest was -21 F with -35ish windchill (that was in a 3 season tent, though).

With Inktober done, I’m back working on my graphic novel in between holiday stuff. Meet the (eventually) fuzzy spheroid: Charlie.
