Thanks for all the advice. Very helpful. Its made me re-think. I am wondering if I can model the whole figure in Mudbox. Anyone on here have experience with this software (considering its often budled with Maya)? There isn't a mudbox forum. My question is can I pull out (sculpt) tentacles from the side of a Mudbox mesh base model figure? Is there a problem given that this stretches out the mesh? will will this create problems later on?

 

Thanks in advance for any advice
