1. What was your inspiration for creating this artwork?
2. Could you suggest some courses that would teach a beginner how to create similar artwork by using the skills they've learned?

You're right, in retrospect I also wish I had added the rest of the character, but I was lazy and found a really clever way to knock out a character sculpt with minimal effort and no one would be the wiser. I guess I was right until you came along and poked holes in my "brilliant" plan; Thanks a lot .
But seriously, thanks so much for the kind words and the input, mango!.

And these two from Pablo Munoz Gomez are simply fantastic!
