Watching your struggle getting back into it is inspiring. It's always helpful to be reminded even the pros get "rusty."

[@TomMasonSculptor]

Absolutely! I'm literally working up the will to go sculpt right now! But first I respond to comments :D

[@dougs9915]

I'm an old school and draw everything out with paper and pencil. Sometimes I just start with a figure in my head, set up the armature for it and just start sculpting.

[@TomMasonSculptor]

That's a great way to get started! Thanks Doug.

A lot of fun to watch the Z Brush process

[@TomMasonSculptor]

Thanks!

That tablet looks awesome... What would you say is a good budget one pc wise as I'm not a Ipad/Mac person though I'm sure there are some that want to know them one. To help with didgitally sculpting and recomended software (and po other tools/periferals you may advise)? Do love the Goblins, hope the show went/will go well.

WACOM works on PC too. I use XP-Pen and have used it for sculpting and painting. The prices vary by the tablet's size, just get a size that fits your budget.

The Wacom One is a great economical starter tablet monitor that let's you stay in the Wacom family. I've heard good things about XP-Pen and some newer companies as well. You might save a little more, but the price difference isn't as great as it used to be. Which is actually good because those other brands have started making better products.

Mind if I ask what is that pen display tablet you're using?

[@TomMasonSculptor]

Sure thing. It's a Wacom Mobile Studio Pro 16. It's an all in one computer/screen tablet.
