Absolutely!! When I first subscribed I was worried it was all going to be wood/resin carvings of animals. And don't get me wrong I still watched them all, and.i will continue to, but as an artist myself, I love the use of new mediums in forms they normally don't take. Mainly the tire sculptures! I love multimedium art, and one of my favorite pieces I've done is actually a very large American flag I made from shiny new and old oxidized US pennies. Because how often do you see pennies framed on a wall?

So awesome you still wore the maid outfit lol. The trophy came out great! I personally like the epoxy and wood sculptures a bit more just because it adds so much more depth and options with mixing wood types and cuts. Sharks are my favorite animals too, so definitely can't wait to see what you do!

Agree with previous comment. I would never tell an artist what to make! Love it all. What’s most interesting is to see how, when your materials “fail” you, how you adjust the process. As artists, we all know what those challenges are like and we all solve them in clever and surprising ways.

The trick to molding the hand is to put part of a full size nerf ball in the bottom of the bucket and pour a thin layer of alginate. When it sets you can perfectly place your hand around it.

@Melfan370

Smart!

A couple of things that would help tremendously with the vibration on the lathe: having it on a more substantial base the fact that there's an open space under the table allows the amount of vibration to increase over time. But the main issue is it doesn't have a speed control! That would scare the crap out of me! Reducing or increasing the speed can have a huge effect on the amount of vibration.

@@BMSculptures That lathe _does_ have some (rudmentary) speed control. @7:35 we can see a stepped pulley set up. If you change the pulley that the belt is on, then it will change the speed that the spindle turns at. That one looks like it has only 4 settings, and such systems are a pain to actually change, but it does have some degree of adjustment. The setting it's on at that timestamp is '3 of 4' - I'm not sure if that's the second fastest or second slowest, but unless you changed that, then there potentially was either one or two steps slower that that lathe could have gone. You may well have used that (and it didn't make the edit; which would make sense, it's not a lathe how to after all!), but thought I add that for others that might be in a similar situation.

Honestly the blank may have been off centered a bit too. Which isn’t a huge problem if it’s in the chuck correctly and you work it down quickly. But if he was going to do a lot of projects on the lathe. Too many off centered projects can put stress on the chuck which is no bueno.

I’ll be honest dude, everything I’ve seen you make has been incredible. Do what you feel like that’s my suggestion 👍

Hey man, i have been watching your videos for a few years and only recently subscribed, I like watching all your epoxy and wood sculptures, in my opinion if you are enjoying the work then that's what i will enjoy most, nothing worse than a forced "fun" video. keep up the good work

The T-Rex was amazing, would love to see more of that!

I don't even like sports but think this trophy is gorgeous. You did a superb job. I love the gold leafing.. a perfect touch.

Well done big man! I admire how you didn't give up on that shaky lathe and eventually conquered it. Oh yeah, definitely go with the solid log for your great white shark. Can't wait to see it.

I like you making it out of wood fully!

I just like whatever you sculpt with whatever material you use. It's just a fascinating process!

I love your sculptures, they are always so creative! For the shark idea, i prefer the slab stone walnut, and it would be cool if you use the irregular side for the shape of the tail!

Dude, everything you do is dope, I'm here for the art. I love your creativity and versatility.., the medium is not important.... . You got a great imagination, for the viewer its rewarding enough to watch each piece evolve from scraps and transform into something beautiful that everyone can relate to.

Definitely prefer the wood only, but still very happy to watch wood & epoxy! Great job, looks beautiful!

I personally love both your works. Wood/Epoxy and 100% wood. I think you're doing a wonderfull job, its a calming exeperience to watch your work grow. Keep both things coming.

Please keep doing both. You are so talented and sculptures are so beautiful.

100% prefer the all wood sculptures

I love both options of wood and resin and pure wood as each have their own fun mix to what they can make. I also remember making a hand for a project out of plaster before, though I've made one out of ceramic as well (though a bit bigger than a real one)

Beautiful work!

Gorgeous! love the concept especially now being passed around & shared with friends.

I expected to pretty much jump to the end and see the finished product, but I never found a dull spot to skip! This turned out awesome, and I love the pace of the video.

Tell you the truth your animal sculptures are my absolute favorite. Absolutely beautiful

I found your videos the other day. I cant stop watching. Your work is outstanding. I love the pace of your videos too.

I like both. I love the originality and it inspires me to try sculpting things for myself.

Awesome turning/sculpture. I'd be surprised of none of the guys said anything about the hand holding the football incorrectly. 😂

This one-of-a-kind trophy is something every guy's club needs. My father played pool with his mates every week ("The Boys' Night Out" eh, it stuck). Their trophy was an autographed framed photo of Minnesota Fats, and on the back the victor put their name and the year they won the tournament (in light pencil), and got to hang it up in their 'mancave' so long as they kept winning. The day I played pool well-enough to compete with them, my father got me my own pool cue as a sign of recognition and it's my most prized possession. The photograph was buried with my father as it was his originally.

I like the wood and epoxy combination.

If the NFL see this beautiful sculptured artwork they would probably want one from themselves. You did an excellent job on that.🤗🤗

I like all of your sculptures! Wood and epoxy can be combined in so many different ways!!!!

I absolutely love the wood/epoxy sculptures, so that would be my preference, but I will not shy away from pure wood sculptures either.

KZread suggested this video and it didn’t disappoint. Beautiful work!

I work on the lathe a lot making pens and some other things. It is amazing to watch how others go through their process. People are amazed when they ask how I come up with the shape and material for a pen and I tell them that when I pick up a piece, I have to see a pen in it or it goes back in the pile until I get the right pen for it. I once started to make a large egg out of a root burl, but halfway through, it became an acorn. lol The shape just fit the wood much better. The pens are the same, as it "evolves" and the grain is exposed, sometimes the shape changes.

Amazing piece of craftsman ship. I love it and they way the purple heart and canary wood look absolutely breathtaking.

Wow, I absolutely love watching your epoxy/wood sculptures come to life! They're definitely my favorite, but honestly, all of your videos are so mesmerizing to watch. It's incredible to see the process and the stunning finishes of all your art pieces. Keep up the amazing work!

Anything and everything you make is a pleasure to watch and marvel at!!! You seem to be able to master any medium you choose to work on!!!

I understand your fears when it comes to lath work. Back in the 60s a highschool student had glued up some wood to turn into a bowl. He too had misgivings and had put on a motorcycle helmet. But to no avail, the pieces of wood he'd glued together came apart at one point. Part of this came apart and sliced through the helmet and the top of his skull. It was said that the teacher lost it and tried scooping up the boy's brains and tried to put them back in. It affected him so bad, he ceased teaching woodshop and as far as I know never went into that area of the school ever again. So you're standing back and watching it vibrate is very understandable.
