My girlfriend was also in the sculpting class. This is the cartoon version of her dog back home.

Shih-Tzu Bizzare Sculpture

Well way back in grade 5 (about 15 years ago) I drew a cartoon character for a french class project. Le Shih-Tzu Bizarre. The story was about a small shih-tzu that was taken over by an alien symbiote of sorts, and mutated into a human eating monster. A scientist learns of a way to defeat the creature and liquifies it.
Well recently I took a sculpting class at Max the Mutt and after re-designing the creature, have come up with this. enjoy!

initial sculpy pass, notice the tin foil and wire armature underneath

putting in the details of the mouth was the hardest part

here's the head completed, he has tenticle eyes

here, you can see alot the skin texture as well as the strange growths on it's body

And here it is, the final product. I'll update with a painted version eventually, but for now, it will remain unpainted.
