It's truly an amazing sculpt. Mine should be here -hopefully- any day soon, and I'm already gathering all the required pieces (tattoo included) to complete the figure.

Thanks for the gift of your talent, Trevor!

No? I love wax...It's always given me such control over this tiny stuff...I don't often sculpt large, though, so...that's the biggest reason I like it. Maybe you haven't tried good wax blends? I'm pretty particular about what I like, myself...

Don't we all rust? Β Don't we all show time's slowly deteriorating effect upon our faces, our minds, our hopes and dreams corroding like a once-beautiful piece of chrome and steel, left out in the world, abandoned to the elements, to the rains, changing us from something strong and solid to rust? Β ...to rust? Β Ain't that the whole ball of wax, my friend?

Hahaha!!
I think you may have Pizzolatto beat, actually. Well done, Tim!!! I think you found this on the back of a can of KILZ primer, though.

Your work is great I wish I could do the same , Would U make some tutorials on how U do that ? Or give me some hints from where should I start ?Β

Thanks!
I've always meant to do a piece specifically as a time-lapse video of how I work, but I'm always so busy trying to stay on top of my work schedule, I never seem to have time to do it. And I'm not tech savvy, so I don't really know how to do any of it.
I'm happy to help anyone who wants to know how to start in sculpture...basically, you just need to start playing around. The good news is, there is no right way, only whatever is right for you. You have to discover what you like. For sculpting humans, you want to have a good basic understanding of anatomy...in fact, knowing anatomy helps in any figureal sculpture...It gives the work confidence and learning anatomy trains your eye to be more observant.
The actual sculpting work itself can be done any number of ways. I usually recommend getting a block of Super Sculpey to start playing around. You can bake your final sculpture solid when you're done, and it's a relatively inexpensive medium. It's best to use some aluminum armature wire to support your piece...or if you just want to start with a bust, you can start out with some tin-foil forms to build the clay over and support your sculpture.
I work in wax to make pieces like this, but some people do not like working in wax. I like it for its control and because making small work in soft clays is hard. Softer mediums are best for larger works.
I hope that helps some!

What type of wax U are using ? I've used bee's wax "sarinov.deviantart.com/art/Hea… "
my work is not that good but I wanted to create frightening figure .

TrevorGrove In reply to Sarinov [2015-11-09 00:37:38 +0000 UTC]

Hey! I use a wax that's not as soft as something like bee's wax. The hardness gives you a lot of control in detailing and sanding. Here's a link to it:
