Cartoon character sculpt

To warm up for some serious art today, I decided to try to do a quick block in of a cartoon cop character I drew sometime ago in one of my sketchbooks. I got to watch a webinar demonstration this morning by artist Danny Williams of the pointpusher blog. (He makes it look so easy), and I learned a couple of things that I was able to apply to my workflow. This is by no means a good refined , finished sculpt. In fact it's pretty bad in my opinion, but I learned lots doing it, and I can refine it from here if I choose to. The point was to do a speed sculpt of the concept drawing I used as reference.  I will definitely keep practicing my z-brush skills whenever I have time between jobs. Thanks for checking it out.

This started out as a speed sculpt in z-brush 4R3 using the dynamesh feature, which I love because it allows you to free yourself of all the technical jargin, so you can just focus on your creativity. I am curently taking Michael Defeo's z-brush course on the schoolism site, and I intend on taking Danny Williams course at Imaginarium, when I'm done, I already checked out a workshop from Danny and it was awesome, I learned tons. Here is my forest guy, followed by a work in progress of the original sculpt.
