SANDBAGS! My home building channel is cancelled since Biden liked the name but when I used to do stone sculpture Sandbags were how I help irregular shapes from moving around the work surface. Make bags from denim pants legs and sew up the ends, add sand and close up. For scratch prevention on final polish put sand bags inside CROWN ROYAL BAGS. I like your work. Be Blessed

[@gabemorse8848]

I’d love to see a project where you carve a scene into the wood before pouring the epoxy. For example, create a forest clearing with a hut on the wood, then pour the epoxy and carve the whole thing into a turtle!

[@BMSculptures]

Thats a good idea!

[@AvalonDreamz]

Ooo I would love to see a turtle with some sort of forest scene in it! Not asking for much though 😂😉 I do feel if anyone can bring all that to reality this man can!

[@ejrupp9555]

Awesome ... I had a similar idea with an alligator ... and inside the scene is another alligator that is a mimic of the larger scene ... in the spirit of a Russian nesting doll. A turtle would be cool just the same. And then a Tree ... yeah a tree with a tree inside it ... it could be a scene of scenes ... that would be ridiculous. Yeah ... a tree with an swamp scene with a turtle and an alligator. It could be just an fallen tree trunk ... or go crazy. Might be hard to pull off without feeling too gimmicky ... but if anyone could do it ... challenge?

[@Eric-bh7jy]

Awesome idea. Having a forest on the back inside the epoxy would be amazing!!

[@mulderscully2054]

Kind of like a snow globe!

[@Uneke]

That is a gorgeous piece! My old neighbour would spend countless hours carving and sanding sculptures from narwhal tusk, sword fish, ivory, stone, wood and a whole bunch of other materials. The amount of money raised from doing pieces like this is insane, but the joy he would get from finishing pieces that were absolutely stunning, was worth more to him. He never said that to me, but I could tell by how he would stare at the pieces after and the look he had when he would part with them.

[@advancedspinalcare5014]

I personally like the running commentary. I like to know what you are doing and why. I like to dabble in woodworking/art so learning from guys like you is helpful to me. Thank you.

[@ygScrim]

Your ability to flawlessly merge wood and epoxy in your sculptures mesmerizes me every video!

[@BMSculptures]

Thank you so much 😀 Everything starts with the shape of the wood, from there I try and make the epoxy wood blend in certain areas of the sculpture, like the head.

[@doginasuit3255]

I find it so cool that someone can use such a stereotypically imprecise tool and use it to make such beautiful art like this! Great work!

Your work is so inspirational that I'm considering enrolling in a college of the arts. Namibians are passionate about wildlife, so watching the rhino come to life astounded me. Your work are appreciated all the way from Namibia. P.S. I'm saving enough to purchase one of your sculptures.

[@faysalfabriham5224]

I love these sculptures you make. They look so vintage because of wood yet so modern because of epoxy and i love the wood epoxy submerging in a abstract way. And after seeing the process i feel like this sculpture should be very very expensive . No one should get this without giving the right amount of money

[@motty6515]

I would love to see you carve an orca, basically the pillar technique you used for the whale, but this time I would love to see you play with multiple gradients of wood and apoxy to get that signature look of an orcas pattern

[@ybweiss1]

And maybe add a lighter wood on the bottom of the pillars, to get the white of the stomach

[@BMSculptures]

I have thought about this, while doing the whale. I wanted to originally an orca, but found it near impossible to match the color patterns because I would have to do that during the initial block stage. Maybe in the future I can think of a way to do it.

[@motty6515]

@@BMSculptures you can try a mixture of ebony wood and also charing wood for the black, and tulip or other white woods for the enitial base I wouldn't recommend using 7 different types maby ebony and black llimba for the darker sections and a white and beige wood for the white

[@BMSculptures]

Thank you so much! That would be a really cool idea. Not sure how I would single out the white head. But there could be a solution somewhere.

[@bryandeboes937]

I was looking for the elephant request. Great idea!

[@AdirondackRuby]

It came out so awesome! Thanks for the giggles with the pirate costume! And mostly because the rhino inspired my thoughts, I think a Giraffe would be an amazing sculpture. I'd love to see that...or maybe an Ostrich...from you some day.

[@MichaelBlueMusic]

In the reveal footage, the light shining through the varying thickness of resin onto the burl inside the piece reminds me of an underwater scene. It’d be cool if you did a piece like this that featured stingray or something in an underwater scene inside the resin. Just a thought. Love your work! Someday I hope to commission a piece or two. 👍

[@giovannacasadio9600]

That is an amazing carving love it. I have a question, what do you do with the big chunks of resin that you take off in the beginning of carving? I would love to see something done with them. Have a great weekend.

[@BMSculptures]

I save all of them and plan to make something with them in the near future.

[@MrsGump]

Can resin be re-melted? Or even shaved/grated down to tiny bits to mix in with liquid epoxy? It could look quite cool mixed thru liquid before it sets, like it has wee sparkles thru it??? Just a random thought lol

[@victortorres1585]

Yea I believe resin is made from soy matter of fact your soy late is mostly epoxy

[@Marco-dq1ik]

@@victortorres1585 "Most of the commercially used epoxy monomers are produced by the reaction of a compound with acidic hydroxy groups and epichlorohydrin. First a hydroxy group reacts in a coupling reaction with epichlorohydrin, followed by dehydrohalogenation" en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epoxy Epichlorhydrin is a highly toxic, carcinogenic liquid.
