Another tutorial to try

Use the following video tutorials to make a monster. Be creative with it and try some new things. Yours can look different than mine, but I want you to learn the tools and techniques in these videos. Do your best to "finish" a monster by the end of the period. Have fun.  


Video One: Setting it up and making eyes. 

 Video Two: Making the body. 

 Video three: Mouth and teeth 

 Video four: making a horn 

 Video five: Making Tentacles and a chin 

Here is a link where I got inspiration for my monster.
