QUESTION: Are there any recent (meaning still working/accessible) tutorials on sculpting robes and other flowing garments (including conversions)? I've tried searching through TMP's older threads, but all I find are dead ends to links that no longer work. Thanks so much. Dan TMP link

I did see one years ago but cannot remember where. What they did was roll out green stuff very thin and laid it on a sheet of silver foil. That gave it some form and it would fold in a more real way. Thats all I remeber. sorry Dan

Tony, Thanks so much. I guess it would really have to be extremely thin to simulate folds. Dan

Awesome links, Mithmee! I like that second link's suggestion to add "rolls" first and, after that hardens, then fill in and smooth. Thanks so much. Dan

Great! Here are a few more. The second link is a large PDF on sculpting. Last is a youtube video which there are many. link PDF link YouTube link
