Stone Carving a Seated Nobleman - Start to Finish
I made this sculpture back in 2020 and then sat on the footage until now. I was never especially thrilled with the result. Worse, I feel I made many of the same mistakes on this piece as with my previous sculpture. Ultimately, I'm releasing this for my own catharsis, but I do hope it can still be entertaining and instructive to someone.
My reference is on display at the Boston MFA:

Summer-long project in stone. This was a lot of fun. If you liked this format of video, please check out Frank Howarth on CZcams at czcams.com/users/urbanTrash . His videos are fantastic and were a huge inspiration for this one.

I sit down and make something. Sorry for the quality, this was completely off-the-cuff.

Just a quick and rough painting I did to get back into the swing of things. Thought this might interest some.

    Hi! Christian, Excellent your diorite stone sculpture. The diorite is too hard for calving, but beautiful black stone for sculpture a Pharaoh. Thanks for job carving sculpture on CZcams channel.

    Just noticed that is impossible that you have done it yourself. It was probably a lost civilizations from 12000 years ago.

      an even better stone age statue is the Thinkers of Cernavoda

    Now do it without power tools! Make sure it’s a perfect mirror image and accurate to a couple thousandths overall. Then polish it to a mirror finish, don’t forget the small details like fingernails.

  • @El_Chompo
    @El_Chompo Před 2 lety

    Excellent work. I came here because I was curious how egyptians were able to carve such hard stone into such perfectly smooth surfaces, possibly just with hand tools, and it made me realize that they most likely had some kind of way of sanding for the final finish or else how else would they ever have gotten things so incredibly perfectly smooth in such hard rock that was carved?

    • @EGCblackknight
      @EGCblackknight Před 2 lety

      Abraisive like silicon and alumina oxides occure naturally and were the go too until the introduction of diamond abrasives in early 20th century. The speed it can be done with today is the only real change.

    Esa piedra es de papel.....tallar eso es como tallar arcilla..... Imaginen a los egipcios de la antigüedad, tallando granito o una piedra más dura aún : la diorita...... Y no me digan esa estupidez que fue hecho por los extraterrestres.... Tenían pocas herramientas pero les sobraba capacidad e ingenio.....una combinación que hoy se reemplazó por un ejercito de máquinas y una creatividad pobre, dando como resultado : el "arte" moderno....

    The footage skips from having a blocky outline of a statue directly to there being a figure carved into it and you showed none of the process of getting there.

    Can you do a video without modern tools and from basalt or granite? Just like the egyptians supposed to make statues weighing tons but then smaller

    This is really cool. I've been wanting to stone sculpt for a while, but I live in an apartment complex, so I can't. There're very few videos on stone sculping here, so this was nice to see.
