A video introduction to my current sculpting project 'Jabberslythe.' This will be the first of a series of videos. The videos to follow will log the progress of completing the sculpture and provide some 'how to' elements.
@sTaInR I attach sculptures to the armature stand by soldering a length of thick fencing wire to the armature which is cut long enough that it will pass out of the sculpture. I loop the other end of this wire and pass the the threaded end of the horizontal bar through it. It then gets squeezed tight between two nuts to secure the lot to the stand. Once baked I simply loosen the nuts and remove the sculpture, and cut the length of fencing wire and conceal it with a bit of clay or putty.
@sTaInR Thank you. The armature stand was one that I made at my place of work. It is made from stainless steel bar primarily. The two lengths of bar that make up the vertical and horizontal supports pass through a single piece of octagonal steel which has two machine screws that can be loosened and tightened to adjust the height and extension of the armature arms. The vertical bar is threaded on one end and bolted to a 3/4 inch piece of ply wood.
Great video and inspiration to keep on sculpting. BTW that stand support looks great and sturdy enough to sculpt on. Did you made it or buy it? Care to share?
@malcio100 Thanks, I appreciate it. You won't have to wait long for the next vid though because I should have one up in the next day. Feel free to pass the video on and thanks for taking the time to comment.
Great work Jeremy, especially I like the bones, I mean its detailed finish. I think that you have developed your skills significantly in the last year.
