Introduction:
Small projects like this have proven to be helpful when I need a break from bigger projects and have become routine-blinded.
It also helps me to stick to a time frame of a few days and finish things I have in mind without leaving them untouched for months or even years.

Happy Halloween everybody!

I watched a Video by the costume artist Bernadette Banner where she carved a turnip into a cute little turnip friend. She talked about communities, being comfortable with your own weirdness and competition among artists.
In the 3D artist community, I feel the same good vibes as she does in her community so I felt inspired to bring a little turnip friend to the digital world as well :)

I spend about 2 days on this little side project and I wanted to get it done for Halloween so there you go :)
