[zapidante]

GENIOUS! 10/10

What do you use clay? Grassroots What type of wire is commonly used? xD I'm a newbie.

[juliankhor]

@zapidante

You can use Super Sculpey. However I prefer to mix my sculpey. I like a softer consistency then the default Super Sculpey. Do a search on my channel on How to mix your own Sculpey.

[SaixTheWerewolf]

so now that your done sculpting do you cut the wire and add clay to the holes and smooth is out? what degree do you put your statue in? whats the best paints to use when painting the statue?

[juliankhor]

@SaixTheWerewolf

Yes eventually I will cut away the wires and smooth out the holes. I usually boil my figures. This way I wont over bake and burn them. Try boiling for 30 minutes in a pot.

[Mattisebastian]

the music is disturbing

[oceanical]

What clay do u used to sculpt by the way great stuff I love it

[Narcomics]

Beautiful work!

[juliankhor]

@Narcomics

Thanks appreciate it :)

[EPworld]

will it get hard itself?

[juliankhor]

@EPworld

No it won't . It's polymer clay , it will only get hard if you apply high heat on it. Usually I'd either bake it or boil it to get it hardened after the sculpt is completed.

[EPworld]

@juliankhor thank you I asked, just because my hobby is to make the costumes figures, but I would like to make extra limbs / accessories such as wings or weapons. but I do not know how they could create so that they would last

[playadude2006]

This is one of the best depictions of exaggerated musculature that I've seen.  Fantastic job!

[juliankhor]

@playadude2006

Thanks man!

[CHAMELEON1974]

Do you have any pictures of the finished piece? and did you completely join the limbs before firing? Apologies for all the questions I ran out of space on my last post. Any tips you could share would be greatly appreciated. Thanks once again for sharing your work, it was truly inspiring.

[juliankhor]

@CHAMELEON1974

I have not finish on this one so can't post any final pics. Eventually I will join all the limbs together. For now I kept them separated so I can access the area that was blocked easier. I hope to make a DVD out of this with proper narration and how to tips.

[CHAMELEON1974]

Julian, that was nothing short of amazing. What was the ratio of the clays to get to your optimum? You have also opened my eyes to the often forgotten art of making the Armature, that in itself was pretty damn good, also how you made the mount, when you started removing the clay I thought WTF, something I do all too often. After seeing your adjustment it was clear. I have Sculpey Firm and agree it's hard work I had thought of mixing it with regular Sculpey but so far haven't tried. Excellent....

[juliankhor]

@CHAMELEON1974

I mixed the sculpey mainly for the consistency I was looking for. The firmness that you can't get from sculpey and the softness you can't get from sculpey firm. Sorry if this is confusing. I guess end of the day, it's what level of softness/firmness you are aftering for. So for mine it's a ratio of 1 original Sculpey to 1 box of normal sculpey. And it also depend on the level of freshness you got from the store.

[Sento35]

does this putty stuff turn hard after its finished?

[juliankhor]

@Sento35

If you mean the yellow stuff?, they are epoxy putty. The one I used in the video gets hard in 30 minutes. If you mean the grey stuff, they are super sculpey. A type of polymer clay that only hardens when you bake it.

[Sento35]

@juliankhor did you bake it lol?

[juliankhor]

@Sento35

It's not done yet. So no have not bake it yet. But soon. Currently busy making an instructional sculpting DVD of a wolverine figure I sculpted some time back. Had a lot of request for this :)

[SolidSnakeInMyPants]

What song is this?

[Rulictar]

Hey, I understand I might have insulted you on one of the videos, not over the sculpting, I love the sculpting, the music really, I'm not a jazz fan, but can I ask something. Will you sculpt a character, my favorite character, many's favorite character, Master chief from the halo franchise.

[juliankhor]

@Rulictar

You cut me deep with that music remark : /.... kidding.. I am cool.

I might sculpt Master Chief... but I need to be inspired by it. Usually some ' ching.. ching..' will do the trick . Wink :)

[juliankhor]

@Rulictar

I'm all cool :)... I do accept commission work :)

[Rulictar]

@juliankhor I couldn't pay you, I just wanted to know if you were able to do it for youtube to get views.

[juliankhor]

@Rulictar

:).. I'd love too.. but it will have to be slotted into one of my many to do list. But I will definitely look into doing this :)

[2007suprasport]

Wow that absolutely amazing. Do you use Aves Apoxie sculpt? thanks

[juliankhor]

@2007suprasport

Thanks man.. I use mainly SUper sculpey

[0714boskittles]

Will there be any up coming videos on finishing, removing wire handles and painting, sealing and stuff like that? Your boiling idea i like I have a turkey fryer and that will work fine even for the big sculpts (turkey is better from the oven you know) I can't stop watching.

[juliankhor]

@0714boskittles

Yes I will. At the moment.. Kinda tied up with a sculpting competition . Probably will upload some videos here soon.
