So You've Created a Blockout, Now What?

In this tutorial we will be taking an in depth look at Character Refinement and Secondary Forms.

I am always talking about how Primary form is the most important part of the sculpting process. But what are you supposed to do once that is finished? Well you're in luck, because that is exactly what I will be covering in this tutorial!
