    This is absolutely insane!...removing the armature from inside the model is like taking off your underwear in one piece without removing your pants!
    You are a wizard, Sir! It is very likely the most amazing clay sculpture I have ever seen!
    My most sincere congratulations... AND THE HORSE LOOKS UNBELIEVABLY AWESOME!

      It is an obligation if you want to bake it, indeed it explode during the firing. If you want to see more spectacular removing of armature see this than! czcams.com/video/YezLYN-Byao/video.html. But Philippe is one of best sculptor he works also stone, and other materials, a true master. cheers

    Absolutely amazing work... brilliant skill... and so full of meaning and significance (as with all great art). A powerful symbol of strength subjected to servitude and oppression. Very moving. Would be dramatic next to a similarly inspired sculpture of a horse running free. This sculpture conveys so much, not just the skill of the artist but a deep insight.

    Beautiful and stunning. A few, very tiny suggestions though -
    A draft horse generally has a docked tail to keep hair from getting tangled in the hitch.
    A draft horse pulling as much weight as your suggesting with this posture will be pulling with chains, not leather.
    The hock on that one rear leg is a little off and should be higher.

    The confidence with which you sliced away segments to hollow it out for firing was really something. I'm amazed the legs (and a dowel) were able to hold the weight of the sculpture. Did you wait any amount of time for the legs to stiffen up a bit before removing the supporting armature or did you just go in non-stop whole hog? Thanks.

    • @sculpit

    It makes me wonder what I could be capable of with enough training (I'm mostly a self-taught sculptor).
    I'm also fascinated by this clay: fine enough for minuscule details, leaves no residue on your hands while forming, yet dense/firm enough to hold the weight of the horse's body at the leather dry stage.
    I have yet to see any pieces which have been fired in it.
