[@godinthismachine]

The title says not to watch, but I'm glad I did. Goddamn, this is probably the most beautifully expressive sculpt I've ever seen. I know this sounds like I'm trying to blow smoke, but I would say this is even more expressive and speaks to the pain in the subject even more so than any of the "old masters" works. Thank you for sculpting this and sharing it.

[@ArtChongArt]

Oh you are too kind, Scott. I have much to learn, but I'm happy to know you find this piece to be expressive. It was the goal, after all :) Thanks so much!

[@user-ux7sq2ft2t]

​@@ArtChongArt it's beautiful. I was glad when you decided to change the face to be more human, it really stands out more. 💝

[@MollieHellKat]

I felt the strong urge to comfort this character. This was really amazing.

[@daniellaschaening4470]

it's so smart the way you sculpt a pelvic bone first to build on top of it for a better grasp of how the anatomy will pose I'm going to start doing that!

[@andromalius8890]

It gives me the anguished vibes of that Damien Hirst sculpture of the fallen Angel

[@ashley.f.design280]

This was absolutely beautiful and so emotional. It was so expressive and I could almost feel the disparity felt by the character. I can personally relate to this piece and its emotions. Thank you so much for sharing this masterpiece.

[@ArtChongArt]

I really would rather you watched the creative process video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f5CYp3eHrdBsjs0 This hands-only versions doesn't have any of the context for why the piece is so meaningful to me.. but as long as you're here, I hope you enjoy the video anyway. Thanks for watching Tools & materials and song list are in the description

[@barrybranscum3611]

I think you mean this one:kzbin.info/www/bejne/f5CYp3eHrdBsjs0

[@dawaronline]

this link leads to the same video

[@FigureCrafter]

​@@dawaronlineIt's the same sculpture but a very different video.

[@ordiateur1750]

I don't understand why you don't have millions of views. Bravo

[@gunkhead]

Ah this has such little views, I dont care what its titled I'll always watch The way you hone in on anatomy is so satisfying to watch, you're so talented Chong and I look forward to watching the full vid after this. Making art through/relating to pain is such a beautiful thing we can do

[@comradeapreirogon2975]

В высшей степени обидно, когда каналы с качественным контентом не находят должного отклика у широкой аудитории. Похоже художник действительно должен быть голодным. Мегахорош

[@Auchaser643]

Super happy I found this channel

[@majestickb]

This is beautiful, you’re so talented!

[@nblount8151]

Absolutely stunning! Beautiful work, this is true art

[@jackwilliamson1929]

Thats great. Hard to tell how long this process actually took. Looks like you knocked these out in under an hour, amazing work. At first glancs I thought the wings were folded around his body to the front like he had accepted what ever it was but upon watching it became clear acceptance had not yet occurred at least thats how I interpret it.Great work.

[@mandolin1189]

wow, your grasp on anatomy is amazing!! im absolutely stunned by how awesome this piece looks. I might consider trying to make an anatomically correct model to improve my own (digital) art skills, thank you so much for the inspiration!

[@adrikito]

I discovered your channel a week ago and i love all your content, thank you so much to put the time and effort on building these amazings sculpts. As a 3D modeller and sculptor you are such an inspiration for me, keep the good work and i wish you all the best! I really struggle to do poses and give dynamism to my pieces and watching your videos give me the strength to keep working.

[@Gintodd]

This piece was so incredibly impactful, thank you so much for sharing it with us Art

[@jmaxx6894]

This just looks awesome!! Great look on the character.

[@thebeheader]

art, you are my favorite YT sculpting channel. awwwwwhhhhhhhh

[@user-cv7nt1hq2s]

When the armature is first made it looks so happy

[@eridanuskelpi3908]

We learn through failures, only putting the prestine and polished works out in the www wouldn't make creators much sympathetic or relatable. In the end, it turned out really well, so imo you can be proud of yourself for pushing through the hardship! Well done!

[@amandasanchez9781]

The first thing that came to my mind is Lucifer’s Fall. Absolutely stunning!! Amazing work ❤ I love watching your videos

[@g-tall665]

You are indeed a master of your craft

[@joverlydelacosta]

I love both but I think there's a sweet spot in middle of both formats. Feels like the long form should be a patreon content.

[@PekoXXL]

you do it with such ease i cant

[@stephanewilmet8399]

I love this video! Congratulations for you masterpiece. It's just amazing and motivating

[@MrPooPooJohn]

That dude has been through some serious shit. 😔

[@MrPr1ngle5]

You are incredibly talented! Keep the good work Thanks from France

[@neorun76]

En esta época de instalaciones de camas destendidas de plátanos pegados en la pared o supuestas pinturas de lienzos en blanco etc, las esculturas que haces muestran lo que realmente es el arte lo cual implica conocimiento expresión llevada a lo sublime el verdadero arte es así algo que muy pocos pueden realmente hacer, solo los verdaderos artistas como tu, muchas gracias por compartir tu arte con nosotros tus suscriptores saludos

[@LagonCobra]

man just discovered you about maybe a month ago, I even watched all your videos, and your take on your peices is inspiring! was curious about your medium, and how you cure it? I've just kinda started doing sculpting and been using super sculpey, but the stuff you use seems alot nicer to work with.

[@munchymuffins5187]

He uses an oil based clay that cannot be cured (got that from his other video :D) usually made for people making molds or 3Dscans

[@ordiateur1750]

What is the difference between a butane torch and a butane soldering iron? do you use a soldering iron because a butane torch is too powerful? is it to smooth that you use it's tools? can this replace mineral spirit or is it just for exceptional cases? I learn a lot with your videos and I struggle to make my creations smooth so I ask a lot of questions ahaha. Hello from France :)

[@lobogamer9374]

Incredible work. I'm amazed for real.

[@elivile.]

This video just screams 'you aren't talented like Art' to me.

[@thiagoramos7529]

This is art! Amazing

[@daniellaschaening4470]

wait You can paint directly on it? Isn't that a wax based clay? What keeps it from melting over time? It's such a beautiful sculpture.

[@neorun76]

Que expresión esta escultura como todo tu trabajo cuenta una historia que detalle que bello trabajo simplemente excepcional maravilloso.

[@Koza.M]

Looks like the demented love-child of Berserk and Blasphemous, and I'm all for it

[@mmg6718]

keep up the work, love your content

[@saknarinsaithong7652]

It's a very beautiful sculpture, I call it "The Fallen Satan".

[@user-xh9xg6oh6o]

So....is beautiful....very tragic....very.... painful ...💔🥲

[@KillerTacos54]

Absolutely fantastic

[@joeheljulva5948]

Despair is such a burden

[@marcinszyjkowski3697]

Mother of God..... level ultrainstinct ❤

[@user-qx3oq4mf7i]

Выглядит эффектно. Отличная работа.

[@ianmcglasham]

Ray Harryhausen would be impressed.

[@jacobwright238]

Beautiful....

[@cristhianmrc06]

Maestro 👏

[@shinigamisecret]
