How I Crafted this Exquisite Lemur Monk Statue Art Toy Collectible from Scratch!

Creating the Lemur Monk collectible statuette was a breath of fresh air, the character design was just exquisite and I loved the challenge of solving the balancing and pose of the figure while keeping the dreamy and fantasy feel of the original concept based on a tattoo design by an amazing artist named Simon Hook known as DoctorInkWell on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/doctorinkwell/ This project was a commission piece, and I wanted to show you the process that I go through when I create a piece for a company or an artist, going from the sketch or mood board that the client sends up to the final prototype, sometimes the client asks for the figure to be painted but because I work with some amazingly talented people they want to paint their own version, but let me know if you would like me to record a video of me painting this figure. The piece was sculpted in ZBrush 3d printed on the Form 3+ using the standard grey resin The print took about 50 hours Sanding, cleanup, priming and glueing take about 20 hours but when you are filming it takes around 30-40 hours 🧵 Become a Patron https://www.patreon.com/karmieh 🤖 My Designer Toys Store https://www.karmieh.com/ 🎓 Check out my courses https://oasim.com/ 🌅 My work https://www.artstation.com/oasim 00:00 Introduction 00:18 Sculpting using ZBrush 01:05 3d Print cleanup 01:52 Making sure all keys connect 02:14 Filling drain holes from 3d printing 03:06 UV Booth curing 03:34 Sanding using Linear Pen Sander 04:19 Washing 3d printed pieces 04:43 Airbrushing primer 05:19 Checking each 3d printed piece 06:14 Wet sanding 3d printed parts 07:10 Glueing final prototype 09:27 Presenting Lemur Monk Music used in the video is available on YouTube Music Library, tracks that I have used: In the Temple Garden by Aaron Kenny Momo Do by The Mini Vandals
