Welcome to the Forums! And in particular the Sculpture one where we all have fun!

This is good! Really the difficulty that we have in critique is : What is your style? Tell us what you would like to achieve and I am sure that we can help. :-)

I see you used what looks to be a heavy grog stoneware. If you want to get a nice smooth finish on it, before you move to leather hard you could paint a layer of slip over it. that is if you wanted to hide that rough stone texture. Me I like the texture, I've even thrown with it but its pretty unforgiving on the hands.

Looks great, especially for a first sculpt!

Keep it up!

Very nice and sweet. You captured the child's innocent look. Not bad for a first sculpt. Keep it up.
