Today I wanted to try something different so I took a model that I liked and tried sculpting it. The model I chose was the Dung Sweeper by Curufin over here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3176702

I started with my "sad man" model as the base mesh and then added as I went creating some hair, a shovel, boots, dung cart and poo (I made a variant without the poo in case you want a grave digger instead). I also made a d20 and sculpted in the digits to give this guy a sense of scale. This fellow is 32mm when standing upright but since he's hunched over he's about ~28mm like the reference one.

I had intended to livestream this but apparently I didn't start the stream so there won't be a timelapse of this guy sadly. Womp womp.

Overall I think this was a fun exercise and the mini came together pretty nicely.

For printing on FDM flip him on his back at -90 degrees on the x axis and print with thin auto-tree supports. The cart should print straight up on the baseplate. I've included the d20 as well but I don't think you should print this - it's just a novelty and I was too lazy to line up nice text so I sculpted in the numbers jankily.

For Resin I've included pre-supported files which should work nicely.
