"Why does my eye sculpt always look lifeless?"
"What even is an ear??"

You’re in the right place.

🚀 A Step-by-Step System for Building the Face

We go feature-by-feature, from easiest to hardest:

  • The Nose

    A simple starting point to build momentum

  • The Ears

    Weird shapes? I'll make them make sense

  • The Mouth

    Get lips that feel like part of the head, not stickers

  • The Eyes

    Bring everything together with life and expression

  • The Head

    So that you aren't just making parts, you're thinking about the whole.

You’ll build confidence one feature at a time, stacking wins as you go.

  • What gives an eye life and emotion, and how to bring that into your work

This is how to think about a nose, and how it connects to the whole head.

It’s how to simplify complexity, so you can:
Sculpt faster, better, and with way less frustration.
