[@roachdoggjr5840]

everyone's talking about the detail but the fact that the artisan kept such good track of the bigger picture and used that detail without muddying the larger forms is what really wows me

[@ape_object]

I agree with you! The most important aspect of a sculpture is a bigger picture. I think a piece without a bigger picture is like having your skin covered without bones. And the process of drawing a big picture is the most fun :)

[@roachdoggjr5840]

@@ape_object i agree 100% :D

[@Takrit.]

The fact that you're not using a vice and just holding that thing for such detailed carving is mental. Absolutely surgical level of precision.

[@LukaPaja]

This seems more valuable than just plopping a diamond on a metal torus

[@Dropship11]

Try to convince your fiance of that.

[@argylemanni280]

[@everlastingdragon4520]

@@Dropship11 if the fiancé is reasonable, they'd agree.

[@onetwo-gt2tr]

nop, wax is less valuable than diamonds

[@KnotApps]

@@onetwo-gt2tr I think the wax will be used as a mould to cast metal later. Wax by itself is too fragile to be worn as a ring. So depending on the metal used as well as the gemstone used, its value will be higher than diamond on a metal torus.

This is the height of craftsmanship and artistry.

[@ape_object]

Thank you so much. Your kindness gives me the courage to continue my work more.

[@nitroseltzer2442]

When you say this is the height of craftsmanship and artistry, are you saying this is the greatest act of craftsmanship and artistry of all time?

I need to see it cast!

[@redmadness265]

I need to as well

[@iqcops]

Yes!!! Where is the final ring???

[@Freakhealer]

I dont think you can with all this detail and geometry, and since it has a stone already i dont think its meant

[@cousinivoryciv1309]

@@Freakhealer of course you can cast it, the stone isnt set, its just there for placement. this is meant for lost wax casting

[@AxelBitz]

​​@@FreakhealerIt's not necessarily a stone, might be a plastic or resin bead that'll burn along with the wax.

[@zacharybennett3249]

Seeing your process of subtracting and adding material over and over in such detail is captivating, but watching the Jade Dragon come to life put the fire in my eyes.

[@blackparabellum]

Crazy detail. I don’t think anybody does this except here.

[@Sean-Keating]

Wow, this is a top-level artisan. Knowing exactly when, why, and how to use all of those different tools and attachments is not something you learn overnight.

[@youknow-ol5wt]

The amount of patience needed for this is. Insane 😮

[@hysteria257]

Absolutely gorgous! Great shooting/editing, too! I hope many people see this!

[@ape_object]

Thank you for your interest! I will share more wonderful things in the future

[@hysteria257]

​@@ape_object Awesome! Good luck!

[@jmonteschio]

Unbelievable that you can do this kind of detail while giving the camera such close views. Beautiful work!

[@I_am_Lauren]

Every time I thought it couldn't get more detailed. it did. Truly stunning!

[@ModdedGarage]

this is why hand crafted items should be valued far far more than they are these days

[@w15h0na5tar]

I loved how the tools kept getting smaller and smaller! It was incredible to watch the detail come out.

[@MsTJPink]

I can't even begin to understand this level of skill, I'm astounded.

[@haley_ish]

The actual jewelry making here is obviously incredible, but I want to give a shout out to the video production! You did an amazing job balancing the audio of scraping and grinding tools with really soothing musical beats- it’s gentle and satisfying and still feels connected to the functional artistry 😍

[@ElysetheEevee]

3D media artistry is mind-blowing to me. I'm a 2D artist, with what my natural inclination is, and things like carving, pottery, and so on... they've always seemed so challenging. It's such a different mindset in the creation process, sometimes. Well done on such an articulate piece. It turned out amazing!

[@ape_object]

Thank you so much! I support your creation🙏🏼

[@ianwallace3192]

I like the idea that this ring protects you from fire but melts more and more with use

[@Susweca5569]

The wax sculpture is used to cast it in metal.

편집 진짜 너무 맛깔납니다. 공예에서 나는 소리를 부담스럽지 않게 풀어내신 것 같아요

[@notneean]

15 DAY PRODUCTION??? Thats crazy!! I thought this would have taken at least 2-3 months with the amount of detail put into it!! This is awesome

[@ape_object]

Thank you so much! I'll show you a better future!

[@siribiriz]

That was some really exquisite work artisan, props

[@barretcoe4841]

Im an artist and I have no idea how you can have such a steady hand like this. It blows my mind every time.

[@chrisvu03]

[@charlafox5701]

Thank you for becoming an artist. Your work will go on to inspire others such as myself, and it makes me want to try carving again, if not just a little bit!

When a skill level in crafting is so high, seeing how to makes a work seen easy. I don't know how many years of practice a mortal needs to done something like that, but in my honest opinion, more than i have left to live. I wanna see the final piece when its done. Regards from Spain.

[@twerkingtwinkies2335]

Love the sculpting! Amazing. I sculpt glass figures myself. I've used dremels, liquid gold, dentist tools, picks and giant hunting knives to make my art. This was the best thing I've watched today. I find sculpting so therapeutic and just as therapeutic to watch. You're incredible! ❤
