Thank you for this video, it was a helpful refresher for me and I believe could be helpful to someone who is starting off with anatomy sculptures. I don't think your later steps are "ambiguous", I appreciate that you explain it that way though. It's helpful because instead of just explaining in your style, you leave room for the artist to grow. Thanks again, great video!

Thank you! I'm happy you like the video. I try to make sure (and I need to get better at it) that I don't impose too much when I teach. You don't want to make copies of yourself but teach a method, or a set of rules if you will, that allow a certain amount of freedom of expression so the student can take your method, explore it and create something unique for themselves.

Wooow ..you are very talented ..you have good sculpting tips..good luck

Thank you! I try my best.

42 year a professional here. A technical comment. I would advise one to take a basic welding class--it makes creating a large armature much easier and a good welder makes a strong armature. 2 --Make an armature than can come apart when the sculpture is finished i:e: a sculpture of an angel can/should have clips inside so one can cut the clay and remove the wings to vastly simplify mold making (or mould making in England). 3)I would use a lot of aluminum foil to wrap around the basic armature. I rough out the areas with the foil, so I do not use as much clay, I simply "skin the surface with wax or clay. It makes a much lighter final piece. 4) I would have used plastalina ( wax and oil base clay used for animation and grammar school kids' art classes) rather than wet clay. It does not need to be constantly wetted and can be easily reclaimed for future use. There are a variety of sculptor's plastacines marketed in different degrees or hardness and softness. If you learn to make your own modeling clay with waxes and oil, you'll find you can achieve some excellent results. (Maybe I should make a KZread about how to make your own) 5) learn to draw! As a sculptor you do not have to draw as well as a professional illustrator or painter, but you do need to be able to draw well enough to communicate clearly what you will be creating to both yourself and a client. Drawing is just another form of writing. Shakespeare had mediocre handwriting, but the ideas are communicated well. I am often told "my daughter draws real good. She's gonna be an artist." That's like saying the person in your school class with the neatest handwriting is going to be a great author.6) though I started as a figurative sculptor, I later moved into creating abstract steel works. IT IS STILL IMPORTANT TO LEARN FIGURATIVE FIRST!!! Later, I went to making whimsical animals and people in steel scrap. Knowing figurative informed my work immensely! Cartooning is an excellent example of knowing how to draw something realistically and then being able to distort it professionally. Wow! I seem to have gone on a bit! Joel Haas, Raleigh, NC

The frame is custom built. It's two large wooden board stacked with wheels underneath. The metal frame is welded rebar and the internal armature inside the figure is made of aluminium armature wire, which you can buy at most art supply stores.

It's water-based clay, terracotta clay so you could fire it if it didn't have an armature inside it! I think polymer clay in any scale above 1/2-1/3 scale is probably not the way to go.

How do you remove the structural part outside the sculpture when it is done?
