This guy loves what he's doing. You see that smile across his face? I love that! It feels good to learn from someone who's genuinely happy about what he's doing. I think it really makes a difference.
Thank you for taking the time to show us your sculpting, I'm just starting out with sculpting and watching videos like this gives encouragement. Thanks again
goldrick wang Hi - the tools you will find at this link are all recommended for beginners www.jacksonsart.com/Art_Departments-A-Z_All_Departments-Sculpture-Sculpture_Tools-CWR_Modelling_Tools/c2129_2128_2178_31127_33872/index.html good luck!
+Mr. VonMeister sometimes +Jake Corrick stops by to answer questions like this, fingers crossed!! But I imagine that the foil underneath the sculpey makes it easy to lift it from the pipe as the foil would not stick to the pipe
What a great teacher he is, and a fine artist. I am just starting out producing downloadable art lessons myself and he has really helped me formulate my own style. Brilliant and fun to watch Jake
I have been using Sculpy ever since I was introduced to it briefly in a college art class. Over the last 16 years I have been slowly building my skills on my own. Never once did I ever think to pop online and take a peak at how other's do it. I learned some very valuable things from this as well as validated some of the techniques you shared that I learned on my own. Very cool. Thank you!
Thank you :) yours is one of the only videos that actually shows what some of these tools do texture-wise rather than people showing what's in their tool box and saying what it does rather than showing. Also the foil is a great idea, was worried I was going to have to make my big project out of one large, thick piece of clay.
that was SUPER helpful. The alcohol and just your process in itself was helpful. I just finished my first sculpture and was wondering about baking. I got so much more from your video. Thanks.
Holy smokes you're a serious master. Thank you for sharing you process in such a user friendly way. Your creative use cheap tools and straightforward instructions are appreciated.
I've been sculpting for years and I'm still learning new methods and techniques everyday. Thanks for posting this vid. Lots of what you've shared I've echoed in my own work but I've shied away from using those wire tools. I'm excited to give them a go after seeing how you've used them.
This guy is super cool and really seems to enjoy what he's doing. i love people who are eager to teach others, world is full of jerks only wanting to hold each other down.
Great tutorial ,i have been doing sculying for a year now using this great product and also using the hard eyes ,from being a drawer to using the SS has change my life ai so many ways ....Love this product and picked up a lot of pointers on how to use those looped scrapers ......Appreciate your assistance and knowledge .
Hi Jake. Thank you for sharing your amazing work and explaining your process so well. I really enjoyed watching this video and I gained a lot from it, especially how you build durable custom rake tools and also reinforcing how the detailing work should be a continuation of the underlying form already established in the beginning. I'm looking forward to applying your techniques to my future creations.
One of the best videos on here! Excellent job explaining the process. I just picked up some sculpey and am gonna be giving this a go. Thanks for the info!! Great video👍
Hello! You are very polite, this is the first video of yours I have stumbled upon. subscribed, thank you for explaining things in such detail. I appreciate it when someone helps me learn things
I just love this tutorial, it is great! I'm not very good at English, but I can understand much of what you said. I think I'm ready to start my adventer with sculpting. Thanks a lot. :)
You're a great teacher thank you (completely new at this... like I've only sculpted a small heart). So much useful info in this fairly short video. Hope to see more!
Thank you for sharing what you know with us.....it was very helpful....im just getting started to sculp....my clay just got here so these videos are awesome!!!!
Got plenty of guitar strings. I change mine about every other week. Alsi..I use a lava rock for skin texture . Great video ...will be back often to learn more
Hi Jake, absolutely loved this video! I'm very new to sculpey and obviously I'll be starting small and then working up to projects like this. I was curious where you bought your eyeforms/glass eyes from?
Great tips Jake!! I would really like to see an extension of this video of what it looked like after you baked it and the painting process!! Great Vid!! I have a stupid question...what kind of eyes do you use? Is there a possibility of these objects melting during the baking process??
+Mokie R Thank you! hoping to do a paint process tutorial soon. You can absolutely melt the eyes in the oven, but Sculpey bakes at a low enough temperature that it is never normally a problem. I prefer to bake my sculptures low and slow so that I never have to worry.
Just adding this since it has come up a few times: The base is removable after baking. I use the same setup that I have had for years for nearly all of the busts I do in this scale. Once everything is baked, and if you were careful to not put too much sculpey at the bottom between where the sculpture meets the pipe, you can slowly spin and lift your piece off, and the excess armature wire can be snipped at the bottom. Good luck everyone, thanks so much for watching this. hope it is helping. I plan to do another video covering painting techniques, and maybe one for a full body figure if people are interested!
really nice video. im new in sculpting and just started a figure with super sculpey. would need advice on which acrylic paint i can use for a nice result? martha stewart or apple barrel or folk art.any advice? thx
This guy loves what he's doing. You see that smile across his face? I love that! It feels good to learn from someone who's genuinely happy about what he's doing. I think it really makes a difference.
Reminds me of Jonnie the paper mache lady. The energy and love for what they do is remarkable.
That rubbing alcohol method for smoothing is an amazing tip. My life just got like 30% easier.
28.7%
My life got 30% worse. Then I read somewere you're not supposed to drink the rubbing alcohol.
I feel like I would watch anything that this guy is in. He's super likable. Awesome video too.
One of the absolute best sculpting instructional videos I have seen. Well done.
The way you speak and carry yourself is very magnetic. Your talent is incredible. The whole package!
Thank you for taking the time to show us your sculpting, I'm just starting out with sculpting and watching videos like this gives encouragement. Thanks again
