Every artist has to start somewhere and there will always be those that will talk the big talk but don't know how to draw a stick figure. Nobody forces anyone to look at a mask or buy it for that matter. If a person doesn't like it that's fine, I am sure there are others that will.As for a mask to sculpt I would go with something that YOU love, something that has lots of meaning to you and is important to you. That way you will pour your heart and soul in it and in the end it will show. This will help you a lot to grow as an artist as well as you will be your own worst critic!<!--QuoteEnd</div><!--QuoteEEndI really do understand what these guys are saying, BUT I also fully agree with you. When I first sculpted my unlucky 7, there was absolutely no interest in it, just alot of bad comments but eventually I got interest in it a sold a few, enough to make it worth sculpting, I love that sculpt because I achieved what I was after. I wanted it to look VERY exaggerated. my own take on it. I am definately my own worst critic, I am a obsessive when it comes to detail. I sculpted pluto for many reasons. I have only seen a few of them and I could also use the hood as a part 3, 4, and remake. I know I still have a long way to go but I think I have come pretty far for the time that I have been doing it. My intentions of sculpting, molding, casting, painting, etc are to obviously grow as an artist but also to be happy with what I am doing because to me this is something that I have wanted to do my whole life and feel very blessed that I now have the time, energy, ambition and passion. I know I have a few fans out there and I appreciate all of them, And I think it shows in my work. thanks for all comments guys because I need to hear them all <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsup.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":thumbsup:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"thumbsup.gif\" />
