DETAILING & TEXTURING

I constructed the hair by blocks and strands of hair as per Mr Kannan's feedback.

Bippity Boppity boo, I made the clothes using inflate and some brushes to give some texture to it.

I even fixed her face according to Mr Kannan and Mr Ernesto's feedback so that now she looks more visually pleasing.

Then, I made the catalyst as part of her weapon.

I will be sculpting the first one from the image. I used a lot of spheres and the Move tool to shape the entire weapon including the Mirror mode to duplicate it.

Moving on, I added color and material to her clothes to give that shiny look.

Reflections

Experience 

It was tough in the beginning but after so much refining, my sculpture is looking so much better.

Observations 

I noticed that subtle creases can really change the face a lot, especially after changing the material, it looks much more clearly.

Findings

I find the move tool is a ultimate lifesaver in sculpting as I always use this tool to sculpt everything. Yes, including the crown.
