Somehow missed this post scrolling through... Ah what can you do. I'd say that looks great for a first sculpt, with no reference to boot!
As it happens, I've just started sculpting too -- with soft clay for children :)
Simple shapes, just as a form of quick mental exercise (that's my excuse!)
Delightful stuff, I may actually need to get some small tools if I want to sculpt a tiny face at some point (and I do!)
