Here for the ear! For this one I kinda wanted to get a suppleness across - which I don't think I really managed with the other features so far. Pretty happy with it overall, except for the back. Struggled with the conch and the back + underside in general. Couldn't mentally relate the internal ear to the external shape of the conch. Although next time I would perhaps stick holes right through the clay early on to gauge the thickness of certain areas.

He breaks down the different parts of the ear and shows how you can simplify them into easier shapes. He also provides tips on identifying and recognizing these forms when sculpting. Watch out for future lessons where he’ll demo how to sculpt the ear using this anatomy. If you like this lesson, check out the premium course!
