- 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 / urbantrash . His videos are fantastic and were a huge inspiration for this one. - Krátké a kreslené filmy
dont know why this doesnt have more views. the world needs more videos like this, literally just a guy sculpting and explaining the process; every other video is either really low quality and messy or theyre really all over the place and boring, idk, ur vid kinda struck a chord with me, its simple and to the point.
great job dude hopefully youll make more vids in the future
A little trick my grandfather taught me was use a sponge as the backing of the sandpapers.. You can also use a glue to shape the sponge (to slightly harden it) and then glue sand directly to it...some finishes require you to screen the sand for size...and when you do this use (olive oil) to wet sand....given a little time it will polish to a mirror finish...good work though...👍 much impressed

Small channels are the future of this platform
Yes
I hope Christian sees this : hello from 2022. You’re inspiring many with your process and art!
"He's very talented." - my mom
John Dorigo Jones #Followed BTW I am your 13th like!
Thanks for sharing - Great job. I would love to get into stone carving, very inspiring!
wow man awesome job....you have found your calling in my opinion! that looks amazing!
This is AMAZING... I am going to attempt this project (maybe add some hieroglyphics too)... once again, amazing work!
Love the 2001 intro! 👏 excellent project!
Thanks man,im from northwest of brazil and i allready a painter. I want to start to make sculptures. Tnks for this video
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.
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.
Thanks for the tutorial, we finna build this for tutenkhamun
Greetings from 1322 BCE
I'd love more stone carving videos!
Turned out great!
Awesome man!
well done from EGYPT with love 🇪🇬❤️👍
This is nice to see something taking shape from a block. I can't help but think how they did this is the time of the Egyptians working without power tools.
you don't have to go back that far. Many homes built from stone prior to electricity with elaborate stone carvings and detailed woodwork like curved staircases/railings.
Lots of talent wow keep up the videos.
Very great video,,great comentary on it,,, deservessss mooore views
very nice piece of art nice work
Nice work! Thanks!
Great job bro!
Well done. Thank you!
Well done!
That is freakin awesome ...
Really cool
This guy actually pretty good
"It's always nice to give a pharaoh a nice bath"
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?
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.
You sound like a smack head
Great job good stuff
MARVELLOUS LOVED EVERY SECOND
Use water with ur buff and the buff and a slow speed so material won’t melt onto the stone.
Good video!
Okay that opening was hilarious! You should have thrown the pencil up at the end and cut to the ISS.
Fantastic job, - I would love to know what type of stone that is?
Love the vvitch soundtrack at the beginning
Good job 👍
i got some carbide chisels at harbor freight. work way better than i thought they would for 13 dollars. and a lifetime warrantee. if it breaks or bends you get new ones. and i just went to a bridge, got a big peice of GRAVEL limestone rock thing....and started carving it...thanks for this tips.. oh but i do have some more expensive chisels... tungsten.
Like the video and the explanation; but it is the first time I see a sculpting video using a dremel to be honest; and of course it is a lot of work; that is the fun part of sculpting :)
As we all know the one thing that will be around in 20,000 years is this stone sculpture well unless it's smashed. The one material that stands the test of time for several Millenia
You can change the chuck to a smaller one to fit your bit!
Are you going to do more videos like this?
Awesome
Cool video
I've been an artist all my life. Even after watching this, how you sculpturists do this is baffling.
Jet lighter or low flame blowtorch will quickly get rid of the red polish in the groves.. Nice work by the way
Very nice vid dude
Inspiring
Thats impressive. Now try do that with stone tools. 20m high out of a 2000T piece of granite. And replicate it to the mm 4 times.
Duuud this video is great! The comments the cammera the angle the light now, imagine a jean paul gaultier le male bottle made of stone
That would be amazing
I'm subscribing to your channer hoping more vids like this maby small things whatever would be great
Sorry for my bad english
Saludos de Perú
Pd: maby you can clean the red lines with carb cleaner for cars and motorcycles its like iso-alcohol in a spry can
Actually is really cool man. I've got a block of alabaster I'm hoping to carve into a little terracotta warrior figure.
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
It's a miracle
thank you for this! where did you get the block of stone?
Yea where
Thank you for sharing this project, I admire your tenacity to see it through. It makes me think of how much work the Egyptians took on. I understand what you mean about getting fatigued and just wanting to finish it. That mindset change is the hardest to move past, I find. It’s almost like the true test of life is to continue on and keep shaping and never resting or being completely satisfied. Even if someone spent 50 years shaping a massive obelisk, I can’t imagine it’s easy to just lay down the tools and say “well I’m finished with this one.” So much time invested into perfecting a masterpiece, I think it would be almost impossible to not see a tiny surface you want to just touch up a little. Lol 😂Awesome work man 👍👌🇨🇦😎🍻
Great great!
Do you find the dremel is heavy when carving for hours?
Just imagine how hard it was for the Egyptians to me this is proof that they had high technology power tools or something because their sculptures are so perfect there is one sculpture and it may be many more that are perfectly symmetrical on both sides I don't know it just makes me think that they definitely were smarter than we thought all ancient builders
Any idea how ancient Egyptians made their diorite statues with such precision and mastery? What tools and techniques they were using?
the cut the work with flint, and use a simple string tool to meause a level to within 1/10th of a mm. :Scientists against myths" channel carves granite using only tool found in egypt.
@@taylorgall9516 😂😂😂
Cool, if you make another you would have book ends.
Using water with the Dremel would make the blade last longer and avoid the dust.
How in the world did you stop making sculptures ?
Very nice. I wonder how the ancient Egyptians did this four thousand years ago before iron was invented.
Manually with other metals but took a lot of time and patience 😊
@@axolotyllane9242 sure sure
You should get a keyless Chuck for your Dremmel
19:25 "I find the rod is a little too small to catch my dremmel" - that's what SHE SAID! Just kidding - good video!
Amazing! do you sell these?
What sort of stone is it.
for the bits, im sure you know by now...use diamond sanding burr drums for stone.
Your channel is cool
what kind of stone is this?
Yeah man, that's exactly how I pictured the ancients cutting and shaping stone.
This rock looks so soft
I would use a solid table as Well
Good stuff much respect for the effort on the other hand why didn't you just do it the way the Egyptians did it
i am so fucjing high
👍🏆
I'M SURPRISED, you're not working with a solid foundation.
(Shaking table) ???
That dust gets into your pores. (wear gloves and the proper clothing).
How many hours did it take ?
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.
No thanks.
What a strange request. Let me guess, someone told you that such a statue actually exists?
Michelangelo would draw it so many times before touching the stone,every angle 100s of times then he would crave
I want a lot of those how much
Practice makes it right
..
Damn
What's kind of stone???
He says in the beginning of the video.
Use a pressure washer to clean it out. 2 min work, maximum
😲👏👍😍
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.
Oddly all these type of videos seem to skip showing the most difficult parts!
he sit.
he do a commune with the gods.
Idea: Paint or draw your outlines on a tablet, then project the results onto your model. You can even use full 3D models to project even more accurate side views
Symmetry is my problem. I can't replicate both sides very well :(. That's why I can only really 3d model.
Is this wonderstone? Looks like wonderstone
Yes, I believe I say so in the video.
What the fuck, why you dont use granite or gneiss and what are those electronic tools? and the size...
lol
Use High corn sandpapir instead of polish
You could have left the nose off. Many of today's Egypt's statues are missing the nose. Say it was intentional 🤣
cause they were blacks
Ya wanna sell it
Great documentary !!! leads into Zecharia Sitchin work on Anunaki, cuneiform tablets and the flood story of gilgamesh & creation of man, the book, 12th planet. his theory's are interesting.
Just noticed that is impossible that you have done it yourself.
It was probably a lost civilizations from 12000 years ago.
17:32 😬
Monolith
Great but how the hell did the ancient Egyptians do it without any motor driven tools, and there faces were huge and perfect.
They had A LOT of free time lol
I dont think there is anyway around it, they had to have power tools that had same properties as our current day modern tools or better !! to archive the splendor and magnificent the statues and temples provide I want to see a modern day carver do this, on the harder diorite / basalt stone with our current tools and bits, if they cant do it, that means ancient alien tech was employed period..........
@@roninnovastar1321 Have you seen Baalbek in the bekaa valley lebbonon on CZcams, stones the size of juggernaut,s 1000 tons how did they move them.
@@davidellis5135 Yes, blows my mind and its perplexing !! I think it would take 20 cranes to lift.
@@roninnovastar1321 The base stones of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem which are under the ground built during the time of king Solomon, are the same size but only way 300 tons but how did they move them. There is a mobile Russian crane today that may be just about heavy enough to lift the stones at Baalbek but I say ‘may”.
Whats with the edgy music at the beginning?
As Egyptian, after seeing this , now I got more respect to the Egyptian ancient sculptures ,,, but nice try tho 🤝🏻👏🏻 keep it up and learn more
