@rkingslien... I really like the videos that you put together, but I have to say, there is one thing that truly gets under my skin with your narration. You tend to be so "psychological" in your analysis. Quit trying to explain to me about how someone "felt" when they were sculpting. I get that art is about a flow and a feeling, but do you have to be soooo analytical in your interpretation of the thought process, maybe it isn't so complicated. Maybe, possibly, Cesar just smashed clay around.
@KickingMinutes I am sure there is some smashing of clay Cesar does, however, I think that Ryan knows a bit more about Cesar's thoughts, and feelings simply because he has worked with him enough to know what his process is for creating his artwork.
@GolfPiggy Cesar uses the layers to do the bulk of this work. Its a bit of a process though. Here are the steps: 1) create a layer and pull out the large hooks 2) adjust the layer intensity 3) create a new layer and use H Polish to make it more of a nub. 4) adjust both layers to see what works best for you. We'll cover that in the class. A really cool workflow.
on the topic of cuts. damian standard brush is mega awesome, been using it for years. i was very pleased to see it promoted into the package install. with this post i only wanted to add props to MAHcutMech A and B brushes which also are two great brushes but for precision cuts. i hope these get adopted into the install as dam_stand was. i found them on zBc
Darth Vader would like to have a word with you, mister!
Love your tuts, Ryan!
