This is the best detailed vid on KZbin I've come across about sculpting . .ELLIOT you nailed it. Just wish I had half the talent in your bones, moved me to push myself . . Thank You . . .You moved a sole forward.

[@picosdrivethru]

i find this incredibly informative and yet relaxing after a day of work to watch and learn. So awesome, thanks for sharing.

[@kendallkhademi5746]

God I love this video he explains everything so perfectly and the whole production is flawless.

[@ernestb556]

The ending bits had me laughing, absolutely amazing! Your videos are incredibly high quality, this is something I'd expect from a lecture at my university, and you've given it to us for free. You're simply amazing! Definitely earned a new sub!

[@Hobofacedude]

This is great stuff, as an intro to clay its really inspiring, if I knew more about 3D work I certainly would've paid for this.

[@AnAfinityForKarma]

Your understanding of anatomy is fantastic, thank you for this guide it’s re-inspired my passion for clay modelling. The tools needed at the start as well have helped a lot in me figuring out what I needed to start up again. Thank you very much for this. Great results as well!

[@larrydavid530]

The work is great, but I really appreciate the level of detail you add when describing your process.

[@kebertxela7819]

Just wanted to say I really appreciate the way you detail the whole process. It is extremely helpful and inspirational for those new to the art, like myself. I hope you can continue to make videos like this. Thanks.

[@elliotmallon7538]

Thank you for the kind words!!

[@thethriftychristian82]

Of all the videos I've seen this far , this is by far the most informative one yet. Specifically the tools used and differences between hard and medium clay.

[@vincentvillar1486]

Watching your videos during late nights was so satisfying. I am a newbie in this kind of art and seeing some of your works makes me me boosted and inspired to do more. Thank you so much

[@JuanCarlos-wb2ve]

This was amazing to watch! 1st time ever watching a video on KZbin this long from start to finish. Keep up the great work! You just got another fan

[@Erindale]

I just bought clay for the first time ever. I never knew how in depth sculptors thought about their work! So impressive. Subbed

[@punchek]

As a total beginner at sculpting, I'm really amazed with your bravery at this! Throwing clay on, cutting his head of, reaping his jaw off :O So much confidence, I love this:D

[@gesarts3625]

I love this channel. I sculpted for my first time to try and make some of my own silicone masks and I happened to be a natural but I want learn how to do more than just faces and your channel is just the place for that. I find you very inspiring and love your work.

[@Dokus360]

WOWW! Taken me right back to my art school days. Last time I handled clay was over 20 years ago but this video has so inspired me to get back into it.

[@Magdyr1]

Sir, you make this look easy! This video made my day. I'm in a bronze casting course and your video inspired me to push myself to make a human form. Keep up the great work and more videos please!

[@razorback7828]

[@romaroalte2645]

The final additions have just killed me XD The things suddenly start going more and more ridiculous from 1:02:12. I like the following commentaries. A very good video.

[@ArtistLoungeArena]

Looks very nice!

[@wanderingintime]

I love how you're reusing tea light tins for mixing epoxy!

This guy us the best. Very instructive.

[@anna-jb8wr]

This is soo cool!!! I’m beginning in clay work and tend to watch KZbin videos on it, but no channels I watch ACTUALLY teach techniques and basics. So today I stumbled upon your channel (thankfully) and you’ve AUTOMATICALLY got my subscription! I’m looking forward to watching all your videos and get better, gradually, and also to become one of your fans!!!! Edit: I spelled one wrong... lol

[@shannonsloan9790]

Great video , very informative and fantastic tips !!

[@MayAllBeeingsBeAtPeace]

Great content, super helpful!

[@grittykitty50]

Just visited your website. Fantastic work; the self portrait is my favorite.

[@Lame1984]

This my new favorite channel :D Would like to see some casting tutorials...just an idea

[@elliotmallon7538]

Unfortunately I couldn't cast to save my life but hopefully you found a good one!

[@MrJeepmarine]

Videos of making two part silicone molds to pour in wax to do lost wax casting would be cool. These need to be poured into metal statues.

[@slysop638a]

Great video, thanks for your time and effort! Going to be very useful

[@damarisjudithflorezaguillo7627]

MARAVILLOSO‼️‼️‼️EXPRESIÓN!!!

[@christineingram55]

What a brilliant character..,love the tongue in cheek humour about him ..boy is he a lot of hard work ,but at the end of the day you must be very proud of him ,I would be 😀

[@sofiadavi1]

Parabéns e obrigado por compartilhar 😃

[@kimis404notfound]

So good thank you so much for the inspiration!

[@drjre77]

I just got to say that this tutorial, and the rest on your channel or absolutely amazing! It's nice to see a fellow Ontario resident on here sculpting Even though I sculpt dinosaurs and prehistoric animals animals I found these tutorials very helpful! Thank you so much for making these! I sure hope that one day you sculpt an animal, or dinosaur on your channel because it would be amazing to see!

[@susanrichard1653]

Dinosaurs are alive and well, interesting subject, I search the web. Thank you for the suggestion.

[@DistortionsUnlimited]

Wishing you all the best on your channel and in your work!

[@sasajugovic5618]

[@andrewm2399]

Wow. Great stuff.

[@denniswilson372]

This was a great video...fully watched it all...and will be using some of your techniques...Thanks so much for the informative video...Keep making videos...

[@bouyant8659]

HOW WONDERFUL

[@birdy369]

Awesome I've been looking for someone sculpting in plastalina clay, I have some van aken plastalina clay, but it's fairly soft, ive had some problems with smoothing lumps out without getting lines in it. Thanks for the tips

[@simonbennett7450]

Thanks for sharing your video, very helpful.

[@zajournals]

Very well made video. I appreciate the effort. Those high speed videos most make are worthless. Awesome sculpture too. Thanks for sharing 👍 I'd never use a clay I can't permanently harden but I do like how you melt and freeze as techniques.

[@marcbe49]

I like the way you describe what you’re doing. You seem to be very aware of what we might be thinking while you describe the techniques, so it’s very informative and feels conversational. I look forward to whatever you post next. Also, I can’t seem to find Taltine anywhere, you recommend a good source?

[@susanrichard1653]

Also fantastic for scapulars of disobedience.

[@JK-sy3tt]

Wow. Great video.

[@melvynn11]

Awesome work!!!! 💞💞💞👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@Emmark1000]

[@pavelstitch9795]

[@davidmerritt1114]

Exalent work. I really enjoyed watching you work. Very informative

Lentable thank you

[@TheWookiedan]

Fantastic video.

[@negrogatostudio7297]

Parabéns , muito lindo o seu trabalho ! ganhou mais 1 inscrito. continue assim ensinando e compartilhando seus talentos ! obrigado..

[@TruthSurge]

so... what makes the end sculpture permanent (dry)? I know with polymer clay, you bake it in an oven. So how do you make this permanent?

[@daddydeadbones]

You'll have to make a casting of it. Oil based clay won't ever be permanent. Sure it will harden a bit but you can always break it down and reuse it.

[@TruthSurge]

@@daddydeadbones ah..... okay, that makes sense. I saw one or two vids of a person doing that casting stuff. He smeared like two or three things over the model, then put some cast thing on it I don't remember but then he poured stuff on the edges inside and that became the model but it was like silicone. Anyway, thanks for that info. I guess you have to spend some $ on this hobby.

[@daddydeadbones]

@@TruthSurge that's why some artists use polymer, pottery or air dry clay. They all have their advantages and disadvantages. Just use whatever works for you. Really its one of the cheaper crafts to get started. You can get going for a $100 or less. It's really not that bad.

[@TruthSurge]

@@daddydeadbones I bought some super sculpey a long time ago. years ago and made a fake biscuit and painted it. You literally could not tell it was not real from about 1 foot away. hahaha But that was easy to make. I made a little banana about 1 inch long and I made it look realistic. Just unbelievably small. Oh, and I made an ape not too long ago but I really only had my fingers (nearly useless cuz I damaged many of the tips so I can't press hard on anything anymore) and like two dental tools. and not much knowledge of any sculpting ideas/techniques. But I thought it might be fun to try again with more tools and some general method instead of haphazard hoping. haha Maybe I'll buy some more tools and paints and fabrics and stuff. thx

[@daddydeadbones]

@@TruthSurge no problem. Check out a channel called 'Ace of Clay' he uses polymer clay and makes some pretty interesting things.

[@TOMAYASHI-STUDIO]
