I set out to sculpt this to improve and just practice my sculpting. I stumbled upon Ben Judd's concept for a Kull (horned creatures for the Eragon books) and was really inspired, so I just got to it! I'm a big fan of the books and I'm glad I've finally got around to making some 3D from it!

As for the renders/ presentation, I really like how Tom Newbury works the digital clay and makes things look really good, so I tried to make my own version of that! He's a huge inspiration to me.
