Bull Bulls are beautiful and powerful animals And under appreciated, especially in Spanish culture where they get abused and killed just for the entertainment of people 😢

Buffalo
I think the bull fits better for an "not natural pattern" than a buffalo

I fel like the Buffalo would of came out better with that patern
Hey Blake, with that pattern I would choose the horse. The bull or buffalo would require a more “aggressive” pattern…I think. If I could I would have living room full of your sculptures. Very nice work! Thanks. Steve.

exactly what i was thinking!
I think a sea turtle would be cool. The turtle shell has a design to them that could be made using or gluing different wood grains together I think. Making even one of those huge old tortoises would be cool as well. 🐢

I have done one before! check out my video of it
This sculpture is phenomenal. I know you did a bison of tires and a horse head of wood and epoxy, but I would love to see a full-size HORSE! That Buckeye burl makes the most spectacular art pieces ❤
What an incerdible result! That Swan has such a calm and graceful spirit to it.

Thanks Jonas! I'm just trying to draw inspiration from your work 👌
Definitely got to go for the horse Blake! An elegant animal for an elegant piece of wood.
This swan turned out very beautiful and elegant. Another masterpiece to your catalogue! I think the horse or buffalo for that pattern but leaning more towards horse because of how dainty the pattern is and seems more appropriate for an animal of similar nature. Cheers!

The wood choice for the beak was really nice. Beautiful piece overall. I think the endgrain pattern works best on the bull.

Agree!
Can I just take a few minutes here to say how proud I am of you Blake? I mean, literally what 2 years ago if even that, you were a new KZreadr making tire sculptures and custom patio furniture without a clue on what the viewers like in terms of editing. And now of days you have found your style of not only videos but art. You continue your occasional tire sculptures which I’m all for, however the epoxy/wood sculptures are amazing, unique, and take an unbelievably amount of time and talent and skill. It’s YOUR style Blake it belongs to YOU. I would love to see you try dyed epoxy next!! Like a tortoise with a wooden shell and green epoxy limbs or something like that! I really enjoy your editing style, a good amount of commentary, explanations, and also background music with time lapses, close ups, the whole 9 yards of professional KZread videos. Absolutely killing it man, I’m very proud that you’ve found your style in both video creating/ editing, and art. The cutting boards are stunning too man! So unique and mesmerizing. As for the animal of choice… imma say buffalo. I think it’s the most challenging. You’ve done a bull already with the tires, idk that you’ve done a horse but it seems basic, however a buffalo with lots of fur would be a real good challenge with an amazing result. Can’t wait man! Till next time !

If you have seen some of my previous videos you will see the progression. I have made MANY MANY mistakes in the past.
The SWAN was perfect! But you put so much heart into your work, how could it not be perfect. Keep up the great work. Adorable children by the way. God Bless! Horse would be my choice also.
Loved it! I vote for Buffalo 🦬
I think your sculptures are amazing, if you were to use the design you showed I think a horse would be so stunning. Because of the design in the wood, and then the shapes, that would be highlighted in the muscular structures of the horse.
Turning Scrap Wood Into $12,000... after having spend several thousand on tools, equipment, my time, shop space, miscellaneous safety equipment. I made a whole $473.00 on this project after all was said and done. Not too shabby if I do say so myself.
This turned out beautiful. I really love that you did the eyes and beak in wood!
Suggestion here: i think you could add a sort of handle to the cutting boards to make it easier to hold and carry and hang 🙏🏼
When you were showing the options, I thought the horse was the best because of the colors and design that you’re going to use on the sculpture and you’re amazing at what you do❤🎉😊.
Wow. Beautiful piece. It’s so graceful and flowing. I love the long neck, you’d never know it was cast separately. I’d love to see a full horse sculpture.
I wish, I had all your sculptures in one big room with light 💡 to watch all time.
Stunning absolutely stunning!!!
Stunning! Honestly it’s difficult to describe how beautiful this is. You must feel so proud and satisfied with your pieces when they are completed. I’d love to see a full sized horse. ❤
Gorgeous work as always. It's amazing how much the little details matter. I think the wooden eye makes a huge difference. I"m always amazed at the precision and quality of your work. Well done!

The sculpture stands as a testament to the sheer brilliance and artistic mastery of its creator. Every chisel mark seems to breathe life into the wood, rendering it a sublime work of art that transcends the boundaries of the medium. It is a masterpiece that not only celebrates your profound talents Blake ,but also enriches the world of art with its captivating presence. Keep it up mate.

You could turn those tiny off-cuts into coasters too. People LOVE their handmade coasters.. heck, I would love some from you!❤❤❤
The horse silhouette looked really good!
*WOW.... that swan is amazing.... I guess packing it and shipping it cost the new owner a fortune too. I hope they are really appreciating what went into making this statue. 🙂.*

Hi Blake! Are you freaking kidding me! This is amazing. The neck is so so stunning. It’s seamless. It looks like one pour. Genius! Thank you Blake
Stunning swan! I always enjoy watching your sculptures come to life, they are amazing. I vote for a HORSE!
HORSE, for sure!!! Granted, I LOVE horses, but i would also love to see you make one in your style. That would be epic!❤❤❤
The visible seam in the neck is such a bummer. Great job on the rest though!

Never, I'm never disappointed with your work. Thankfully, your baseball career afforded you the financial opportunity to pursue your other passion of mixed mediums into truly artistic works. They're all beautiful. My vote on your next piece. Buffalo 🦬 Americana, strength, resilience. I'm already looking forward to your next endeavor. Keep those kids working!
I think all three would look spectacular, however the contrast with the Bull would be the best fit.
The swan is beautiful-I love the colours in the beak. I’d like o see the horse in the next sculpture if possible.
Choose the BULL.

Blake. I think this is the most beautiful sculpture yet. You do amazing work.
Brother another awesome sculpture. My vote is for the Buffalo. God bless you and your family my friend.
I would LOVE to see a Stegosaurus with the wood on top, making up its back and plates, and clear resin on the bottom, for its legs and belly.
Taiwan will absolutely love this Swan!! Truly beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
Absolutely gorgeous! Just insane talent. Everything is so beautifully done. I don’t know if you’re just a natural with this art but you sure make it look as if you are. Thank you for posting.

I think the horse would look fantastic in the end grain block carving. Great job this project!
Buffalo would be my pick. Don't see many of them. Amazing job on the swan!! Awesome!
Well done Blake.
Another beautiful work of art. I love how you take an otherwise discarded mass of wood and turn it into a one of a kind masterpiece, revealing the natural beauty of it.

I think this is my favourite. It's stunning. I think the horse would look amazing.
I think the horse because the pattern is more regal. Love the swan Blake! Always a treat!
This is gorgeous and I'd like to see the buffalo
You can tell your getting better at carving and doing the molds. I hope your issues with the freezer have resolved
Your work is exquisite! You are very talented! I love your cutting boards too! It must be fun making all those patterns.
Please, please, please, a horse. The Swan is absolutely beautiful, your talent is amazing and you are truly gifted x
I would love to see some sort of buffalo, even if it isn't end grain. With your skill, it would look amazing. Keep up the amazing work Blake!
Wow!!!! Incredible ❤❤ What a lovely sculpture!
So beautiful!!!
Blake thank you for sharing all of your videos ,each piece of your artwork is beautiful. wlould love to see an elephant in one of your future pieces
The bull for sure! Looks like it will be awesome inside the design you are looking at.
Fantastic! 👍🏻👍🏻
I like how the swan came out the beak looks really cool almost like it has gold leaf in it. Hard to decide which one is better
Phenomenal swan!! And I vote Bull for the board
What a beautiful Swan, absolutely gorgeous, definitely this is one must be one of my favorites sculpures that you carve, I vote definitely for a horse. Cheers, bro!!!!!
