Scott Eaton's digital sculpture course
After working in toys for a few years as a 2D concept artist/consultant I decided to take up 3D as well to better understand the entire toy production pipeline.
I took up Scott Eaton's digital sculpture online course in early 2017 with the sole goal of deconstructing ZBrush's 'alien' software language, foolishly believing my anatomical knowledge was already adequate.
After the class I now know how little I actually know.
My perspective on anatomy has grown exponentially in regards to the body in motion and the behavior of a muscle/bone in consequence to the action around it.
I've always been an advocate of learning but I think we confine ourselves when we believe that our curriculum is over after college, or that our training is done after getting our black belt, when they're in fact just warm-ups to a life-long course.
"Every year your job is to be better and better and better, at being all you already are, this is not a cosmetic exercise, you're already different, your job is to figure out how and then to be more of that."
"You know those people that told you they had 15 years experience when they mean one year 15 times? They literally repeat themselves year after year after year..."
