Auryn Beorn : I watched a lot of tuts on sculpting in blender recently. This one definitely has been something like an eyeopener for me:

Think about it for a gargoyle or a fountain. The mouth is perfect for a fountain with bronze ornaments actualy

Auryn Beorn : It is huge fun - really. the only recommendation i can give you: Do not even think of using your mouse for it. You will kill it. I have a kinda cheap Bamboo pen/pad that works marvellous

Auryn Beorn : oh then it is perfect! And the only secret is - as Long as you learend what the brushes all do and maybe how to make your own brushes - references. references galore

Auryn Beorn : And another tip: Start sculpting with the multires modifyer and NOT with dyntropo. Dyntropo is indeed Handy but it blows your triscount up the Roof. you can get easy 2 mio tris within 10 minutes

So much fun! The retopo is hell, yes, but nowadays I do that at night, while we watch a movie that is not from SyFy

I recently discovered after years of meshing that you can delete edge loops without deleting the faces around it which has basically saved my life

Paco Pooley : for shame most of the time I let SL do it automatically - I should stop that xD

Jack : ah for many occasions SL does it not too bad. to make the lower LODs by your own gives you more Control like - deleting stuff you can not see anyways (the bottom of chair feet i.e.
