Profile description
12/23/2016 - Decided to revamp my entire profile, start from scratch. As such, things will be added little by little. For now, however, I'll just give some key points.
I'm a sculptor in various forms. I tend to work mostly with clay, although I'm currently working on a HUGE project that will probably stand over half my size. This project is taking a lot of time, and of course I'm doing little side projects here and there as well.
I'm an extreme bookworm, as you may be able to tell by my name. I'm always up for some book talk. Of course, while I love my sci-fi/fantasy genre', I'm also big into allegory books ranging anywhere from Fahrenheit 451 to Lord of the Flies and everything between, before, and after. You want to talk Poe? Shakespeare? Blake? ect... You already have my attention.
I'm former military, have been overseas, met many people, and have seen many things. Don't come to me talking about life being bad, crying because people don't 'respect' you, or any of that bs. You don't yet know hardship.(not being intentionally mean here, but the things I've seen, the things I've had to do, especially to people in order to survive... Anyone here likely can't even come close)
I will always be straitforward with anyone. I don't believe in trying to sugar-coat the truth, nor do I believe in trying to cater to people sensitivities. I actually am sorry, but there are harsh truths in the world, you have to be able to handle them.

Oh duh! I thought it was that, but I wasn't too sure. Eh, don't worry about me. It takes a lot to offend me. I'm pretty well laid back.
See? I'm old! My memory is going. XD
Yeah there's a tumblr thing. Furvilla confessions. You can google it.
Ah, I didn't see that. That stinks.
Pc?
How are you?
Someone on the confessions blog thought you got banned which makes me laugh since here you are
eyoo thanks for the seeds
Snek cute, cute snek! ^_^
I still use the colored clay. I just wash my hands in between colors, and that helps. I've even baked things halfway through so the, usually reds, don't get everywhere.
And you can paint! I am terrible at painting. I need an undo button too bad. I love the coat and little pockets. It's wonderful ^_^
It's a fluttery feeling trying to do people's babies in clay, I agree. Especially when they haven't thought about things like the bottoms of the feet or the back of the shirt. I haven't run into anyone who wasn't patient, thank goodness. Haven't been going long enough yet, I guess XD
Muscles! Gack! I think I'm like you and more of an additive sculptor than a carver. And adding muscles can throw the whole figure off! Especially around the shoulders and ankles for me, the parts where the limbs take a sharp turn. But I love the face you gave him! I have a hard time around the eyes as well, but your eyes are looking great ^_^
The stuff I'm best at now is small and stylized; the kind of things that just make me happy when I see them. Being small with tiny hands helps there. I've been making people's OCs in charm-sized figures.

And fan art of cartoons and such

I want to work on realism, but I have more fun with stylization right now. I'm mostly working on improving my symmetry (curse you, symmetry) which I think will help with anything I decide to do. I still have lots of fun, though; and it makes me happy to see someone else who works with clay. Usually I hear "I used to do that." I really hope you find a school ^_^
