Carving a Figure out of Epoxy & Wood

This here, right here, is ART. Sculptures are one of thee hardest forms of art and I can tell you that if that sculpture survives as long as the marble counterparts, youll see it in an art museum or gallary one day. Beautiful work BM.

[@The1stDukeDroklar]

Wow, that is gorgeous. I especially like the subtle ripples at the rib cage. So well done.

[@sandidennis3957]

I'd love to see you use those delicate shavings in your sculptures. They're too beautiful to waste!

[@LokiDWolf]

I absolutely LOVE the detail you put into it. Not just curves but to put indents of the rib cage and the way the arm has a cut to show muscle tone, just incredible!!!

[@BMSculptures]

Thank you so much!

[@robertweissman5911]

A sculpture like that can create a lot of wood

It's crazy how much of this video is dedicated to simply creating the medium from which you carve your sculpture. Maximum respect.

[@Юрій-ц2с]

as my husband said: a talented person will make a gorgeous thing out of any crap. It's super professional. Very aesthetically pleasing, very beautiful, such a thing will decorate any interior. My great-grandfather was a wood craftsman, but unfortunately he did not pass his craft on to his children.

[@BMSculptures]

Thank you so much!

[@FrozenKnight21]

This is a true work of art. I don't think I've seen a better sculpture.

[@Lisa-jh1os]

I really loved watching this I'm utterly impressed by how talented and thoughtful this project was.. I'm used to being impressed by furniture but a sculpture is awesome. Really inspired to go make something with wood.

You sir, are an exceptional artist, absolutely adore the sculpture !

Thank you so much 😀

Hi I am so sad I didn't see this earlier. I absolutely love love love this it is so amazing I have no words to describe, I would have loved to win this or one like it u do great work

[@MasonR3]

That turned out absolutely gorgeous! I love the rib details and the sharp piece of wood on its right side sticking into the epoxy. Beautifully done!

[@BMSculptures]

Thank you Mason... Its always fun seeing what wood will be showing on the outside. I got lucky with that one!

Remarkable craftsman, I used to be a so called “patternmaker” it’s art that died years ago? As the machines / computer era took grip, I HAD to change roads … now I’m just a security guard, but I’m making a good living for my family. I miss the ability of our hands! It was a standard finishing task to our apprenticeship to make a table using all the different wood rests … and another college made a front door 🚪! Magnificent work! All my respect!

[@tatchik77]

Hand planing is so very satisfying! I love the feel, the noise & of course the curls of wood!

I can’t tell you how much I enjoy your channel, partly because it brings back special memories I have of my dad’s woodworking and spending my childhood in his workshop,but the other reason is because I could very easily have ended up sculpting in wood for a living, I actually did for a few years, in a very similar manner to you in fact, but I chose another path and I’m not sorry but I do enjoy vicariously living my parallel life through you.

Please dont lay your handplane on the blade but on the side when you are done with them :) it hurts an old carpenter :) Love from Denmark

[@adamwolf2376]

The blades job is to cut through wood, how is resting the blade in wood going to hurt it

[@mortendamgaard1977]

​@@adamwolf2376 the blade can get pushed up and you can get uneven cuts. Some times it takes a LONG time to make the handplane cut perfect. I learned to put them on the side so I do it every time because some day you don't have a wooden table and then you forget to put it on the side. But I see your point👍😃

[@matthewjoyner1595]

You can see when he grabs it for the first time, he does store the handplane on its side when it is not in use

Hey Blake, just got to your channel a couple of days ago and I´m amazed! I actually like this sculptures the most so far and would love to see more torsos. Also I think it looks great that the epoxy is in the middle and not at one end. For the scrap peaces - have you thought of putting them into a box as giveaways? They may be too small for you to use but its still nice wood mixed with epoxy, I´m sure other woodworkers doing smaller items would still love it, or beginners to practice! Have a good one!
