[@Wherethewindblows524]

Man r u good. U know ur tools very well. I'd love a gouge sharpening video. I can't stand and do it I'd have to sit up.

[@KE-cq5pn]

Amazing work

[@tombryan720]

Brilliant! That stand is cool too!

[@OldOakEnterprisescom]

It's a drill press stand. I took the table off of it and fitted a carving arm to it.

[@Deestainglass01]

Awesome can't wait to see more. Please let us know more about the tools you uses and your shop. Thanks so much

[@gaius_enceladus]

**Wonderful!** He very much reminds me of Capt Gregg - the ghostly sea-captain in the '60s TV series "The Ghost and Mrs Muir". ( Showing my age......... :) )

[@kendramalczyk2613]

[@HamidKhan-po1px]

Beautiful work

[@Otto-ub4ll]

Nice Vid. Many carving videos jump ahead too quickly or focus on just one small area without showing the entire process. This one covered the entire carving process start to finish at a pace where we could thoroughly see how it was done. Please make more.

[@rivasguerrero8971]

Qué maravilla de artista. La atención a los detalles asombrosa. ¿Dónde aprendería este arte? ¿Quién o quiénes fueron sus maestros, que condujeron por buen camino su talento? ...

[@shravana_10]

Todo un profesional en la escultura en madera. Arte en las manos.

[@stephenmayne4886]

Great job, you make look easy.

[@lindseyzacek5211]

I do chainsaw art and wood chisel art and all of it sales but...you showed me teacher..more details!!!! I need to add to my work...thanks

[@ramonlopez5872]

I see one little mistake buddy, you paint the eyes all blue.you make a master piece.you rock!

[@OldOakEnterprisescom]

No mistake, if you'll look closer you'll see that I used two shades of blue, one for the iris and one for the reflected light. Thanks!

[@LHudsonARTLIFTS]

Wow amazing talent, inspirational stuff.

[@wg1948]

wow wow love it

[@AncientEnergyEyesOpen]

Stunning

[@henrytay9933]

this a nice art work Amazing

[@NikhilKhandekar]

Exquisite! Please share info about the tools / brands you use and the kind of wood you used to make the sea captain. What types of wood lend themselves well to carving? I am just an inspired novice who would like to emulate you!

[@OldOakEnterprisescom]

I have tools from a lot of the brands, but I probably have and use my Henry Taylor and Pfeil tools the most. I made the Sea Captain from Basswood, which is what I use for most of my carvings as it's easy to carve and well suited for most projects and types/styles of carving.

[@celticlion8357]

The only thing I can say is ..."WOW"!!

[@ItsAnSS]

You are fantastically talented. How many people have told you that you're an "old soul"? Also, what type of wood is this? Thanks for sharing.

[@OldOakEnterprisescom]

Thank you. You're not the first to say that. It's basswood.

[@goognamgoognw6637]

Damn, it looks extremely difficult not only to have the right vision to make the right cuts but to do it. I watched the whole thing and it's hard to believe anything good will come out of it until near the end. That said, I have been marked by a Medieval wood sculpture a beautiful holy woman portrait at the art museum that is of so beautiful a portrait that it looks better than a real person. She is about 1/2 scale like the saints and holy family you would see in Catholic churches and she is smiling warmly. I cannot imagine how the artist made it. It has a soul as much as a real person , actually more. I hope you will not be offended if I say it is significantly more refined by two even three order of magnitude. Especially the curves are longer and more complex in volume and some parts like nose or fingers are more detailed and beautiful than a real beautiful woman.

[@osprey02]

Excellent !!! Well done..

[@tp-gj3sc]

Nice work.

[@MrJofArnold]

Do you have the original (not sped up) of these videos? I would love to buy a copy so I can study the techniques and carve along with you. For now I'm just running it at 0.25x on KZbin but that misses some important steps; it's still very fast!

[@OldOakEnterprisescom]

This is the only version that I've ever put together from 60+ hours of footage that I took while carving the Sea Captain, and I did not intend for it to be an instructional video. Maybe someday I'll be able to get around to creating an actual instructional video on carving this project, but for the time being the best I can offer you is the booklet that I wrote on Carving the Sea Captain. Which is available through the store page of my website oldoakenterprises.com/product-category/products/ or from Fox Chapel Publishing.

[@liuyen9371]

wow!!!!!! te quedo fenomenal..... UN GENIO

[@shiyazameshimazu4207]

amazing

[@pordentrodascoisas9013]

Suas ferramentas estão muito bem afiadas. Além do talento para esculpir, é preciso talento pra afiar também. Ótimo trabalho. Parabéns

[@OldOakEnterprisescom]

Thank you! Yes, learning to sharpen your carving tools is a skill that is neglected by too many, but is easy enough to learn.

[@listennowbreath]

Your work is amazing! Perfection .

[@mesaralbujeyash6976]

what kinda wood is that semes so easy to carve

[@OldOakEnterprisescom]

It's basswood.

[@anishsomanoff]

[@joachimmuller4601]

verry good !

[@sarahhall5282]

Wow - you are very skilled! Is that a clay sculpt you're using for reference? Did you sculpt it yourself?

[@OldOakEnterprisescom]

Yes, I created the clay model before carving the Sea Captain from wood.

[@Cirocoleman]

Brilliant!!!

[@mariasuelygoncalves3424]

Wonderfull!!

[@grelm1322]

Is this Runescape music?! lol I know I recognize it from somewhere

[@OldOakEnterprisescom]

Haha. No, but that is some good background music. All of the music that I used is royalty free, so you probably have heard it somewhere else. I heard one of the tracks being used on a tv show one time.

[@OldOakEnterprisescom]

@David Bernard hi David, just now saw your comment. Yes, I'd be happy to do a carving for you. Nearly all the carvings I do are commission projects for people. Send me an email through the contract page on my website. www.oldoakenterprises.com Currently the end of my work queue is it to the fall of 2022.

[@ramonlopez5872]

you are right.sorry about that.

[@Intagliosulegno]

beatiful

[@christopherking7182]

What kind of wood did you use

[@OldOakEnterprisescom]

Christopher King I used basswood for this carving. Basswood is what I use for about 90% of the work I do as it carves very well.

[@Albert8able]

Q tipo de madera es

[@OldOakEnterprisescom]

It is Basswood. Es tilo.

[@FlukeTog]

God Bless Chisels and mallets No other tools compare in the end.

[@chrisdaldy-rowe4978]

I'm lost for words...

[@sundayaito2230]

I want to do this so bad...

[@nasrar0]

i love This

[@didiermafioly5260]

Beautiful, respect for your working, but i prefer natural wood. It,s only personnal ..

[@myname1137]

Holly crap!!!

[@OldOakEnterprisescom]

I'll take that as a compliment. :-)

[@نجارةوالنحتعلىالخشبعبدالخالق]

🌴🌴🌴🌴👍

[@FlatlandMando]

Just patient enough to watch this. NOT quite patient enough to actually carve like this! The choice of music is very tasteful & " oddly" appropriate if that's the right term. Drum beat marks the time...flute or recorder sounds light & inquisitive like the carver's imagination as they predict ahead to the final shape. Bet that gouge is expensive & that wood is soft... Basswood? Balsa?

[@OldOakEnterprisescom]

Thanks, I was trying to capture/create the seafaring mood with the music. Yes, the cost of the tools add up, but they are a life time investment and as a whole woodcarving is not as expensive as some hobbies/professions. It's basswood.

[@brianday9216]

Amazing how much wood you have to remove , not like clay have to be more cautious, you think your there and then , nope just a little more , then just a touch more off , lol great job bucko

[@deputyazhar238]

اكثر من رائع

[@davelabine1]

wow

[@musamor75]

You’re extremely talented. Thank you for sharing. However, for novices it’s not too realistic; there’s all the volume work.

[@กอซะยูโซะ]

สวยมากเกงจิงจิง

[@shaunrish9516]

I would not have painted that , it looked better in a natural wood tone in My opinion

[@tuk-tuk1315]
