Well done! You have a lot of natural talent. Glad I found your channel. Just getting back into chainsaw carving after about 10yrs. I got burned out doing a ton of roosters and horse heads. Nice Pfeil gouge btw!

Oh I love my gouges!!! And thank you for the kind words! Funny your say that because I’m eager to do both a horse and rooster soon 😂

Really nice work. I'd imaging the self-satisfaction is high. IF I start doing bears I'd have them all over, not sure I could sell one ha, ha, ha. Be well.

Some are very hard to sell, you put so much work into them and sometimes they go too fast and you don’t get much time to appreciate them once they are finished! For now I have to sell everything, but I do keep the misfits around the house 😊

I know guys that have been carving for years that can't do a decent bear like that. You have talent.

That was very interesting. I'd like to try that. I've wanted a big bear statue. I have a place with trees and black bears. I'd like to put up a camera and film how real bears react to bear carvings, if they do.

That’s one beautiful bear! You’re extremely talented, that guy looks amazing. I just picked up a smaller, unfinished bear at a flea market. It’s not painted or stained yet. I’m just curious about after you paint these, do you apply a stain like a deck oil or something afterwards on your work? Keep up the great videos. I’m new to your page.

@TayMarie23

10 ай бұрын

So I often apply a timber oil prior to the paint. I do 2-4 coats of oil depending on how much the wood absorbs, then apply my oil based colors over the dried timber oil! If something is already painted then just a spar urethane coat will do the trick! Spar is what I recommend my customers use to seal their carvings with during yearly maintenance.

I think you should do an Indian chief with a full head dress.

Great job TM! Big Hugs to Nami! Curious why you did the wood burning, then painted over top? I was guessing the burning was making the black colour in your previous carves. Does the burning make a nicer texture or finished look? Thanks. Thumbs up everyone 👍👍👍👍👍

@TayMarie23

Жыл бұрын

Burning gets rid of all the fuzzies (aka wood fibers that get all fluffed up from the texturing process). They burn up and leave a much softer and less splintery texture! Burning also helps remove any sap, it’s super flammable so it catches and I let it burn off so it doesn’t wreck the finish later :) hope that helps! Thank you for the support as always 💛

👍👍👊

I’m totally new to sculpting…especially with wood haha! Did some clay stuff in grade school but that’s the extent of it 😂 I have always been able to see things in 3D rather easily which I think has helped quite a bit! Trust me…there are many many things I can’t do! Never be afraid to make mistakes is my best advice! I have learned the most from the many mistakes I have made along this journey:) I seriously appreciate your kind words!
