Oh- good on you ^^ Not many people deviate their 'safe genre'. They tend to stick with what gives the feed back >.> Trying out new stuff is good practice ^^ I'm currently playing with clay hoping I'll get something from a bit of 3D interpretation.
AH! Clay!!!! XD I haven't worked with it in so long. XD I was able to do portrait sculptures of models in front of me, but I failed at anything from my imagination! XD fail....fail. XD
I've only done 1 so far so I haven't had enough practice- it's really hard, but I guess it'll get easier ^^ I'm using Super Sculpey. It's great to work with Expensive of corse though >.>
