Awesome
loved it
Ok now do Muhammad
it kinda looks like the Rancor beasts from star wars
Great job dude 👍
The cherub would be so epic! Not only would it be extremely difficult but insanely impressive. I know it might be hard but it would be so worth it.
He also needs to read Chapter 10 of Ezekiel, it gives more details, like that they have a ton of eyes
Facts! 🎉
But the cherub also needs to be painted. I want full realism ❤
@@BoeHawt Gonna be hard to give it a bronze glow
Yeah but if anyone can do it, it is our guy, Jazza!
As a minister by profession and an artist by hobby, I find these depictions refreshingly faithful to the text, and also to the spirit of the text. Much of the Bible is deliberately terrifying, and you have captured that well. Thank you! If you make another sculpture, I would love to see the cherub. I've never seen a cherub captured in a way that was both faithful to the text and visually coherent.
This comment was so succinct and well written. I agree with everything you said.
I love how you worded this and it’s also refreshing to see so many cathlics in these comments loving Jazza’s depictions. 🎉
The Bible is like one huge work of science fiction.
Gotta love how one is this giant crazy monster, ones a 4 headed 4 winged leopard and another a lion with wings and then you have Yogi the bear just chillin like he aint the normal one.
Babylon, Persia, Greece, and Rome are all represented in those beasts. Viewing nations as beasts with chimeric features based on their behavior.
Love the art! It's great to see these things rendered into such well-made sculptures.
Wow nice.
@@mrpgr2321 It's how the text interprets itself.
Nebuchadnezzar's dream about the descent of empire was based on material things, an idol stratified according to the quality of each layer of dead metal and stone. He saw it based on the deteorioration of value in each subsequent system of governance. Until the stone cut without hands - an unpolluted living stone as God told Abraham that a stone cut by man's hands is polluted, that is, slain - smashes into the statue's mixed and weakened feet. This stone shatters the entire empire of man into dust and grows into a mountain. Hence the reason why he erected an idol of solid gold, because it was a statement that said, "My kingdom will be eternal."
Daniel's dream allows us to see the difference between the Chaldean king and the Judaen prince, in the very essence of their subconscious minds, the depths of their souls when you consider 'nephesh' is both soul and mind.
While Nebuchadnezzar had dreamt of an idol, Daniel's dream has parallels in that it is the same progression of time, however rather than an idol of dead stone he is presented with a procession of living creatures that arise from the great sea. Revelation provides the interpretation for what waters symbolize: Multitudes of peoples, nations, and tongues. So these beasts are coalescing from large populations and their nuances are similar to the layers of the statue.
Babylon, majestic and powerful, the wings symbolize the swiftness of its conquest. Once its wings are plucked, the end of its rapid expansion, it is set up on its feet like a man and given the heart of a man as it rules.
Medo-Persia, large yet voracious, with the Persian 'shoulder' rising higher than the Medes. It devoured the flesh of many nations.
The Macedonian Greek leopard, an ambush predator with the celerity of four wings, with its four heads symbolizing the generals which would have their dynasties. The later vision of the he goat and the ram is symbolic for Alexander's conquest of Persia, his generals' rise to power, and Rome establishing its dominion.
Rome is the final beast so different from the rest, having iron teeth and brass nails, it conquered and devoured, stamping on what residue remained. This is parallel to the legs of iron, and in Revelation, the beast that rises from the waters.
To understand what Revelation is talking about requires Daniel, because it provides a key to the symbolism. What was sealed at the end of Daniel is unsealed in Revelation.
Dwagon
And the 4th beast has ten horns which represents the 10 emperors that ruled Rome and the small horn represents the general
Why is babylon represented as a beast?
I have a Christian faith, and it is frankly refreshing to see such an honest artistic approach to these beings described in the texts. But I also really appreciate you being kind and energetic throughout these two vids so far. It's easy for people to poke fun at people who believe in supernatural elements.
And to answer your prompt, I'd love to see you do more with the Cherub, I think you could do it super justice! I loooove your drawing of it.
it's IDOLATRY... And the Bible clearly warns against it.
@@bethdibella550 Yes, the Bible warns of idolatry, but idolatry requires one to be worshipping sometimes that isn't God. Crafting something in honor of God's word isn't worshipping the thing, it's worshipping God through the skills he has given us.
@@EPadraigM Exactly.
@@bethdibella550?? It’s wrong to model things? No the Bible warns against worshiping idols, not creating artistic sculptures. If you where to go and worship your sculpture as God then yea that’s a problem
@@bethdibella550building a statue isn't idolatry, worshiping it is, don't confuse the two my guy
This community has been the MOST accepting, sweetest and wonderful place to be. It’s a place where everyone can come together to draw, paint, sculpt, write, color, or do anything artistic. That’s what matters
😊😊
Not using Gods bible and contorting it for ppls pleasure.
@@tinkerbell2675how is contorted, if he only depicted exactly what the Bible said. It is pleasing to see art done well regardless of its nature. If you don’t like it, destroy all your crosses, pictures, sculptures of Jesus. Include y those bumper stickers and anything depicted from the Bible. Don’t put an angel or star on your Christmas tree either. Oh and you can forget about those dove and angel ornaments lol
Selfishly I wanna see the 7 Headed Dragon because it's badass.
The accurate angels? I think really the most difficult part of that would just be the posing, getting the interlocking/woven rings to stay put whilst you sculpted.
The Cherub however... That's gotta be the hardest of the lot for sure! Not just the base pose but the second pair of wings wrapping over but not fully around the lower torso & hands, the hooved feet, the four very different faces! The open wings need to be quite large & imposing to hold a creature like this upright whilst floating too.
For you Jazza a bit of a nightmare, for us? It'll unbelievably impressive when finished!
I think that would also be Jazza's selfish pick - last I checked he _loves_ dragons... :D
Please do the cherub!! You are one of the few artists around willing to depict them accurately! Either a large painting or a sculpture would be totally incredible! ❤
For anyone interested, the four beasts represent four of the strongest empires in history: The lion for Babylon, bear for Persian, leopard for Greek, and the final monster for the Roman empire.
Don’t know if my last comment had any influence on this vid but I am super happy to see your depiction of the 4 beasts!
Your art is spectacular as always and I look forward to a part 3…?
Also the interesting part is after they are described it brings up the Son of Man who will bring about a fith kingdom. This is a reference to the return of Christ.
They also are what represent the gospel writers.
the islamic empire was stronger than the roman the former rejects christ while the later accepted him
@@durrangodsgrief6503 interesting take never heard someone replace the Roman theory with the ottoman and other Muslim empires.
Based @@durrangodsgrief6503
If Jazza wants a Challenge, he should do the Celestial Chariot that the Cherubs stand beside
It'd also be fun to see him do Seraphs and the Four Horsemen
I agree. The Chariot is insane and numbs my imagination. Great pick!
The horsemen are a really classic subject for artists to do as well. I would love to see his take on them.
Both the Chariot and the Horsemen are things I'd love to see him design and/or sculpt.
Seraphim would be epic, but the charriot would be pretty tough accomplish.
It would be cool if he depicts the seraphim like firey serpents (as they are described Biblically).
I'm assuming you're referring to the ophanim
As a Christian, I thank you for respecting the source material. I am honored and excited to see these creations! It brings the descriptions on the page to life through your hard and meticulous work and interpretations.
What Christian
@@tyycha1324 What? You don't make any sense. He is literally reading from the source material and then extrapolating the details based on his interpretation.
@@leonardosantin3173 Thanks, I think.
@@AdamHowardTravelerdawg no I mean what is a Christian
@@leonardosantin3173A Christian is a person who believes that God created the universe, believes in the Bible in it’s entirety , that Jesus is the son of God and God himself, and that Jesus died for their sins. Hopes this helps ❤
Bulldog wants a delicious treat on this chilly winter morn. How cute, wait that's no dog aaahhhhh...
I think the Cherubim would be the most interesting creature to create. The different faces and wings would be complex but engaging, and I’m interested to see how the burnished skin would be achieved. How easy would it be to achieve the ethereal?
The Fourth Beast is epic! I love the skin texture and the smoky nostrils look awesome - he looks so imperious and aloof!
I reckon Jazza needs to pick up a copy of The Golden Legend - basically all the biblical/Catholic legends that grew after the biblical stories became established. It’s a fascinating read
it just looks like a pug to me
@@dracothewarrior4316 what looks like a pug? The fourth beast? I can sorta see what you mean, but the eyes and multiple horns are wrong
@@creepycutiecrafty6637 it looks like a pug with horns
@@dracothewarrior4316 fair enough!
You should start 3D scanning each sculpture you make not only for your own records but so fans could print their own little versions, which could lead to paint contests customisation to take for example a bust and complete creature and could lead to a whole new vertical of content for the channel, just an idea.
This is an awesome idea! You could sell the stl files. Some one should make a CZcams channel that does this
This is a pretty cool idea.
Man seeing a cherub would be so epic. It’s really cool seeing the creatures that are so cool sounding come to life. I really hope this video gets more views like it deserves
please sculpt the cherubim next!
i would love a whole series of Bible creatures and angels!!! you’re amazing!
I vote for the seven headed dragon 🐉 i think the seraphim would be funny to watch, but actually impossible to do. I like watching jazza have a challenge (and maybe go a bit insane) but be able to succeed in making something amazing in the end.
The seven headed dragon is satan
If you love sculpting and want to see a seraphim you should check out Adam from north of the border he likes to make tiny nerdy things and he made one for Christmas
Yess!❤
My dude it's EVIL IT'S SATAN
Same
Next part could be painting the big sculptures. They look so cool after all, it feels right to give em a splash of colour and really bring them to life.
That would be awesome
Yesss
I'm not sure if you actually can paint monster clay? I don't think I've seen anyone do that. They would look cool colored though
Thats sick! I forgot i actually use to make foam structures in my tech class. It was the best class to have fun and be creative
Absolutely the cherub from this video! It is gorgeous!
Emitting light
I am a Bible student, and a Christian, and I think your depictions are fantastic! The 4th beast was really something, I also envisioned a lizard like type, almost like a dinosaur, but what you made is so much cooler than what I envisioned. I also really love how you drew the cherub angels, it isn’t always easy to envision the four faces, but you did good, I think they are beautiful creations
That's really cool! Tell me, what is your take on Daniel's dream of these 4 beasts and the rest of his vision?
@@edgecruz4832 Thats a tall order lol. I reread it to refresh my memory. Essentially, from what I understood and from looking at the studies of other's who have researched it, i think we can rightly conclude that the first three beasts would have been the major ruling powers from Daniels time onward. Babylon being the first, followed by the Medo-Persian empire, the leopard being the Grecian empire, the four wings and the animal indicating the speed at which Alexander the great conquered and the four heads being his 4 Generals who took leadership after his death. Followed naturally by the roman empire being the unusually fierce beast.
However the 10 horns symbolize 10 kings coming from that empire. I am curious to think that it isn't specifically 10 actual world powers, but as the number 10 in a biblical sense often refers to an earthly complete number, the 10 horns symbolize all the following world powers that grew off from the roman world power.
As for the horn that grows in place of 3 horns, and speaks blasphemous words, this perhaps seems like a final world power that will ultimately fight against God and those who follow him as Christians. I often think this horn is represented as the Wild beast in Revelation, for it also wages war against the "holy ones' or saints for 3 and a half times.
It could very well be that this Horn that grows from this beast could be a new world power or one world government, perhaps under the UN's control? they try to establish Peace and Security as is said in 1 Thess. 5:3 this of course leading to the battle of Armegeddon?
Really though I think the final part of the vision is yet to happen
@@edgecruz4832 - The interpretation is provided in Daniel 7:16-28
"I drew near to one of those who stood by, and asked him the certainty of all this. And he spoke to me and made known to me the interpretation of the matters..." (Dan 7:16)
@@chrisdavidson2810 lol sorry to put you on the spot but people talking about the bible is not in style these days. People these days give a cold stare or just a cold shoulder when it comes to this.
I encourage you to keep going and to pursuit whatever God plans for you! God will show you the way.
@@edgecruz4832 The interpretation I heard was that the beasts represents the 'kingdoms' that will exist when christ returns. Which is which is up for debate.
As a Christian i value these sculpts, as they help to really have an image of these beasts, instead of just vague descriptions. In part 3 i would LOVE to see you attempt to make the 4 headed Cherubs. I also think that will be very hard, i want to see you struggle, as you are making this look way too easy!
Definitely the cherubim! But that 4 headed jaguar would be pretty cool, too...
As someone who has spent much time studying Revelation and the End Times as described in the KJV Bible.
THANK YOU 👍🏼
For not being ashamed of reading 📖 the book, and bringing your skill and creativity to the literal description!
I very much enjoyed this. 🎉
Fun Fact: The Creature with 10 horns later has them merge into one that spews obscenities
That said, for the Cherubs, Jazza should also read Ezekial 10, which gives more details to their appearance (verse 12 specifically confirms a ton of eyes), but props for been so accurate anyways
He should also look into the beasts in Revelations (the 7-eyed Lamb, the Lady in the Moon, the Dragon, the two Blasphemous beasts (ESPECIALLY))
This sculpture should be scanned and 3D printed in every corporate headquarters.
I commented that Wendigoon made a good video on the angel classes if that's how we want to say it
So the glimmer is actually reflections from the eyes
It did bother me that he missed the detail with the eyes but he did a great job and I loved his design of the cherub. I would love to see him perfect his drawing and maybe even sculpt it (I know that’s a large task but I saw his video with a wood carving and I think a biblically accurate cherub wood carving could be gorgeous)
I love how you drew the cherub's face, it was so gentle, ethereal, it truly looked like what an angel might look like. Also, as a Christian, I appreciate your honest desire to just draw and sculpt these incredible creatures.
As for which one you could sculpt, I'd love to see the cherub with it's four faces. Or portraying the red dragon. If I may say it, I'd love to see how you might paint it too, if that's not too much.
If that's the one in revelation, it's described as actually being fire-like in color (orange), not just red.
I think this is also similar to how Judas was considered to be a ginger for a long time.
But so was Daniel was described a similar way in the Septuagint, and same for maybe Solomon.
Take that as what you will.
@@johnsherfey3675 I was referring to the Cherubs in Ezekiel, but yeah. Both still glow
@@DragonKing-te9wy Is there another dragon somewhere in the bible?
@@johnsherfey3675 Technically the leviathan is also a dragon. The Hebrew word for dragon (tannin) is used quite a lot in the Bible actually. But so far as I know, only the KJV translates the word thus.
@@DragonKing-te9wy Tannin is used off and on.
I’m glad you took on this challenge. It’s tough to picture the descriptions in these verses. You did good especially with the sketches
I've been raised in church since I was born, and getting to see these creatures come to life like this, is just amazing!
And thank you, for your hard work, because these are just incredible!
As a Christian, I really loved seeing these artistic depictions. Super creative and well done!
Same
same here
Ditto
it's idolatry how can you love what God hates?
@bethdibella550 I appreciate your sensitivity, but God commanded the engraving of images of supernatural beings for the tabernacle and temple in the old testament. Images themselves are not idolatry, only the worship of them.
As a believing Christian (Southern Baptist in denomination), what I appreciate about this is that even though these are being made by someone who doesn't follow Christianity, it is still done in a way that doesn't mock or belittle our beliefs, and is done with respect and admiration for the depictions of these beings in the bible. Pretty incredible art.
I love how character design is slowly returning to this channel. I loved the days when Twitch chat would vote and Jazza would create amazing masterpieces (yes, even the chibi manbearpig) from the prompts. It's a shame that the algorithm does not allow for that anymore. Still these glimpses of the past in the newer videos are very nice to watch. Also thank God for Insert Art for keeping my character design craving soul satiated. 😂😂😂
These drawings are so touching and beautiful in its mastery. I love them all ♥
I'd love to see your take on various creatures from other mythologies as well. Greek, Egyptian, Norse, etc.
"from other mythologies..."
Yooo the bible isn't a myth...
Please sculpt the cherub!! I love how it would be super detailed from each angle (because of the four heads). You'd also get the different textures from the skin, short fur, mane, and feathers along with different features like the snout, beak, and human face (nose, mouth, ears, etc). I doubt you'd include the wings since you'd really have to up the scale of the design, but it'd be incredible if you did!
I was curious about where he got such a giant Bible only to find out it’s a dictionary 😂😂😂
But as a Christian and an artist I loooove how you sketched each of the beasts, dragon, and the cherubs. Also, loved the paper you used for the sketches it gave it a more historical feel. 🥰
Amazing sculpture. Reminds me of the hellhounds in ghostbusters. Not so much looking alike but having a similar feel, but that's just how it struck me. Fantastic job.
I wont lie, as a Christian its pretty awesome to see an artists depiction of these. It honestly helps me have a better picture in my mind when Im doing my devotions and come across any of these.
Thank you!
no that is false ...do not follow a non christian. He is using Gods words to entertain ppl. Making graven images that is not what the bible said. Each animal represents a nation. For example: the Lion represents England and the bear is Russia. Hmm may God bless you with wisdom. You need to follow Gods words and not by what humans do. Just saying ...to stay on the path truth come from God. Thank you.
@tinkerbell2675 listening and believing words are one thing, having a visual representation to think about when your doing your devotions is another thing entirely.
I'm not saying he is preaching the good news or that Christians need to flock to him as theor source of visual aids.
Just that his visual aids helped me as a very unartistic person visual some of the beings I found harder to picture on my own.
I understand the parables, however to see them crafted out just gives me (and assumably others) a mental picture for later when reading those parables. The artists take on the visuals does not take away from the importance of the parables they are from.
We can indeed have both as they do not oppose each other.
Much like Leonardo being a theist more than a devoted Christian. Yet, many of his commissioned pieces were churches or altars. He gave us The Last Supper, The Virgin of The Rocks, The Virgin and The Child with St Anne, etc.
"Leonardo formed in his mind a conception so heretical as not to approach any religion whatsoever, he esteemed being a philosopher."

@@tinkerbell2675 Have you ever seen The Prince of Egypt, by chance? It is a piece of media meant to entertain people while at the same time giving Christians a better look at what the Bible says to more easily understand it. Dreamworks, the company that made it, isn't inherently Christian themselves. Would you want to not watch the movie simply because it wasn't made by Christians?
@@tinkerbell2675you do realize that even if each beast was metaphysical, Daniel still saw them. If the artist was a believer they would still have a similar outcome in depiction. He was as literal as anyone could be.

God bless you
As a Theology major & an art lover, hearing about Daniel’s four prophetic beasts in a Jazz video makes me very happy.
mad respect 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 this type of desing takes way more effort and dedication than most others
Man you absolutely crushed it, through the whole 2 videos you’ve been nothing short of respectful. I’ve always wondered how to predict the creatures and beast’s within the Bible.
The depiction of the cherubim was amazing, I've seen many different depictions of cherubim as described in the Bible, but yours is the most breathtakingly angelic I've seen. Otherworldly, beyond human, majestic, truly divine.
I'm not religious, but this kind of art and creative interpretation is the kind of thing that attracts me to read religious texts. Thank you for the wonderful art!
May Allah Guide you..

I really hope you make this a series! I really appreciate this video Jazza. Thankyou
I think the hydra would be the most epic. But you did excellent on this beast. I think the horns being all over the face is so much more terrifying ands powerful.
this has nothing to do with how great these drawings look but can we talk about the paper you use? I LOVE IT IT JUST BRINGS THE WHOLE MOOD TOGETHER
I think your decision to add the smoke coming from the nostrils was a very good idea, it looked awesome in the end and I loved it. As for what I would like to see you sculpt of the others, the leopard with 4 heads was the one that called to me the most.
wait, you can comment on the video before it's posted??
wait what
how
Fun Fact, that creature actually represents the Grecian Empire under Alexander the Great, the wings symbolizing how fast it grew, and the 4 heads representing how it was split into 4 pieces after his death. And the Book of Daniel was written over 150 yrs before Alexander was even born
@@logicmeister1821 wow, you do know a lot
This work is ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE I love the sculpture so much it’s already super intimidating but the added effect of the smoke brings it to another level!!! I’m in AWE
I love how Jaza still uses the hot knifes from when he discovered and taught himself how to sculpt with foam and bought those tools.
Dude, as a Christian, I love this! You have done a fantastic job, these sculptures are wicked!!!
Yes sir👍
same
;) Wicked is right, lawls.. The Ten Horns beast is the devil himself ('and his name is blasphemy'), etc. Biblically accurate (or at least imagined as such) is a real treat though.
The goblin-esque ears are a nice touch! It gives it an orcish sort of feel. Like a primordial Orc ancestor or something.
As a Christian I believe you have done very well. I think the way you present this video has been very respectful. I always love your art work however this has special meaning to me, which makes it feel that much more wonderful to watch.
I think the whole piece came out really really well. Thank you for letting us peek into your world.
Hey Jazza, I will start off by saying that I am a Christian but from your unbelieving standpoint, you do an amazing job at not making fun of or bashing the beliefs that you are using for inspiration in your artwork. It doesn’t seem like you make it into a joke at all. It’s very refreshing. And even in my spiritual journey, it is helping me to visualize the monsters described in the scripture. It helps me to connect better with what I’m trying to read and to understand better what exactly the biblical characters are experiencing when they see these things. Even if you are not Christian, you can still have big impact on the spiritual lives of believers.
The bible is already a joke
I am a Christian, and I love that you are going straight from the Bible to draw/sculpt how these creatures might have looked (look?). I would really like to see you do a realistic Cherub. So many people think they look like cute little babies (Dang Renaissance painters!), and they are so freaking terrifying!
Most of them would probably look downright terrifying to us even the normal looking ones, even the most basic angel is still well built, massive in size, wearing robes and probably radiating gods glory and power.
But even with the most terrifying looking ones I still there's a ethereal beauty to them.
@@phoenixx913 Given Hebrews 13:2 "Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares." and how a decent portion of the time they are mentioned as "men" means that at least some of them, probably most of those seen by humans, look visually similar enough to a human to be mistaken for one. That being said, the ones who say "Do not be afraid." very likely look rather terrifying.
I always pictured the crowns on the dragon as crowns hanging from its head, as if not their own but left from whoever it faced before
This is so freaking cool! Adding the smoke feature was a great idea...just really took it next level. Watching you sketch out your creations is fascinating. 😊
TLDR: ONE GIANT FROG! (second plague in Exodus)
It should be noted that the Hebrew suffix -im is plural, so you sketched a seraph, not a seraphim. It would be fun if you sculpted something that people often mistake for being plural: the frog from the second plague in Egypt. The Bible itself is brief in its description, but the Talmud expands upon it the tiniest bit, leaving you lots of room to play with the design:
"It is stated with regard to the plagues of Egypt: 'And the frog came up and covered the land of Egypt' (Exodus 8:2). Noting that the term 'the frog' is written in the singular, Rabbi Elazar says: At first it was one frog; it spawned and filled the entire land of Egypt with frogs."
Source: Sanhedrin 67b:20
It was actually a cherub, seraphim are those with six wings and flames.
Oh, now I know what you mean, sorry.
One giant frog?? Wow I've never heard it was *one* (or at least started that way) before! Sounds like Adrian Cole might have used that information for his "Horror Under Penmire" story 😂
What you are referencing, Exodus 8:2, says "But if you refuse to let them go, behold, I will plague all your country with frogs." Or more literally, "But if refuse you to let [them] go, behold I will smite all your territory with frogs". The Hebrew "with frogs" is בַּֽצְפַרְדְּעִֽים׃ (baṣ·p̄ar·də·‘îm) which has the "im" suffix you refer to. I got this just from reading an interlinear Bible with the literal Hebrew translation.
🐸 one frog, one frog, one frog!
This one!!
Making the cherubim would be awesome! As a reborn Christian it is incredible watching you bring the creatures of the Bible to life. I’ve always tried to picture the descriptions in my mind and fail. Beautifully done! It’s also be cool to see some of the creatures in revelations be brought to life in your art!
Thanks for the quality entertainment. Found your videos a few years back. You've been an inspiration and education to help me get back into the art world. Also, your last video you were making a voice that sounded spot on like Tom Hanks. It was uncanny.
that was just insaaane!! and yes i would love the cherub, honestly any of those you would create into an epic piece!!
If this gets a part 3, I would vote for either one of the angels or Behemoth as a sculpture project!
This is so epic!! :D
yes

As a Christian, I find it so fascinating to see this! I know a lot of descriptions in the Bible is the person's best means of description that they had at the time, but it makes it even more fascinating or even creepy too! that "Biblically accurate angels" post was both enthralling and horrifying, really liked this video!
YES!!! I was hoping we would get another one of these :D
Again, super cool vídeo! Thank you jazza!
When I was about 10 on Easter my mom got me something called the Action Bible, it’s basically a comic Bible. I still have it and helped me learn a lot about the Bible and it was much more entertaining to read at a young age. But some of these things you are drawing are not to far off from what it in The Action Bible!
Totally agree with you. We just gave our grandson an Action Bible for his 10th birthday and he LOVES it. I was quite tempted to keep it for myself and I'm 62 Lol ;-)
Oh GOTTA do the 7 Headed Dragon, since i was a kid its the only part of Bible ive actually thought was so cool.
The book of Revelations has some very awesome things.
The war stories are often pretty cool when you take a moment to think about them.
The night is dark. You and your friends have been having horrible dreams about the battle to come, so sleep is coming poorly. Then, the hills burst into the light of hundreds, maybe thousands, of torches. There are trumpet blasts echoing over the hills, and a fierce clamor behind it.
Panic breaks out in camp. No one knows what's going on, but it's obvious you're under attack. Half naked soldiers are coming out of their tents swinging wildly. Those who aren't fleeing in terror are attacking your own in confusion and panic.
This is how Gideon and 300 Israelites overcame an army of 10000.
Love this, Thank you so much for making!
This series is one of my favorites for sure! I'm an Omnist but was also raised Mormon. I've doodled some Biblical creatures myself, but it is so neat to see just your depictions and sketches. The sculptures are so amazing to watch and THANK YOU for explaining your Monster Clay process. There aren't enough videos on it, imo!
Thank you for growing such a beautiful community over the years, and providing new opportunities for budding artists like myself. You are SUCH an incredible person and it has always shown!
P.S. Cherub ftw, but maybe you could continue the series with creatures from other religions? There's loads out there!
I would greatly enjoy seeing Jazza sculpt the Seraphim. Though I think the hardest would probably be the Ophanim.
Adam from North of the Border took on the ophanim and it ended up pretty cool. Should be an easy to find video - check it out!
I would love to see your rendition of the Cherub, though i think the 7 headed dragon would maybe be the hardest. great sculpts. are your going to paint them them too? i mean if you want a real challenge though sculpt them all! 😄🤪❤
Well done! Really nice to see these descriptions done with honesty and skill.
Your cherub design was so awesome! It deserves a full sculpture and a full painting 😮
it's always a treat to see talented artists like Jazza doing their thing, many times we get to appreciate the final result but not always we get to enjoy the process, amusement and education combined together, *YOU SHOULD DO BIBLICALLY ACCURATE ANGELS NEXT LOL*
While I enjoy the strange Angels as much as the next person, there's plenty of times Angels show up in the Bible that are much more, well, mundane looking? So, strictly speaking, Biblically accurate angels should range from the eldritch to... just looking like some dude.
Your design of the 4th beast is very original and cool. Most artists make it look like a horned tyrannosaur, but you actually gave it a more mythical appearence on top of giving it a lot of character.
I also found some depictions of Bible beasts made that way. My sister even received an illustrated bible, which was filled with "more accurate" depictions of monsters (and locations too), such as You said, dinosaur-like beasts. I wonder if the illustrators or writers (both catholics, obviously) wanted to make their version of bible "historical" by adding such specific depictions? But I think it is wrong and insuccesfull. Most of Bible, especially Old part is mythical, so making historical and evolution-accurate images for a creationistic book is almost propaganda. None christian book should lie about Bible's wrong statements about the world, as that's just how the ancients viewed the earth. Making Bible "scientifical" is not going to fix anything, or bring "lost sheep" back to Church.
@@karolwnuk8244 I think that, the moment you try to combine scientific theories with alegorical/mythological stories, you unintentionally raise the bar so high, at some point you have to "dissect" certain elements, such as God and/or his angels. Treating these stories as just myths the ancients made up as a way to explain the world doesn't decrease their value, if anything, it allows them to stay relevant and to capture the imagination, like how the ancient Greek, Egyptian and Nordic myths did.
If only more fundamentalists understood the meaning of the word mythical, the world would be a lot nicer of a place to live in.
Looks amazing!! Incredible!
You are just so good! I love your drawings! ❤
Q: Have you ever thought of making a mold of your epic Monster Clay sculpts? (like a two-part mold with silicone and plaster) Would have been cool if you could have done that to the Leviathan before sacrificing the eyes. OR, 3D scanning your models for posterity so you can 3D print them later, if you ever want to.
I could almost see being offered as a Halloween mask. Not sure how that would go over though. A paint a cast would be fun video too.
Great job as usual! As a Christian, I also enjoy seeing a peaceful community that enjoys artwork (and you have to admit, despite your beliefs, the art from the Bible is pretty darn cool!). If I had to nominate a creature to sculpt, it's gonna have to be the four-headed cherubim! I've always thought that was such a bizarre design, and it would look really cool if you could pull it off!
As a born again fundamental evangelical baptist atheist (yes, raised religious and now atheist) I am always fascinated by depictions of things that I picked up on, but were dismissed when I really wanted to discuss them (I went to their school 3 - 9 as well).
I used descriptions like these to try to persuade my mom that D&D wasn’t bad. Dad was an artist, so he could see merits in my arguments.
These are absolutely epic. Honestly, as cool as the sculpture is, the drawings got me far more vested. Maybe because drawing I can do, sculpting has eluded me to a degree.
As an atheist, while still at our church, I decided to read the bible cover to cover and ignore the dogma. Not in a criticizing aspect, but it can get really bonkers in places. (When reading, I will confess I skimmed a lot of who begat whom).
Really enjoy your videos and your artwork.
I cant wait until I have the money to own my own home so I can finally sculpt. I have always wanted to do this and watching your sculpting videos just brings it out more. As an artist who has been watching you for years it really brings me joy and I hope someday I can reach your potential.
I want to see the three faced leapoard come to life because it's just so cool and the expression is also so calm and shows authority. It would be soo cool if you sculpt that thing it would be just amazing and surely a part three is coming right?
Yes, me too! +++
I’m a Christian and I think this is so incredible to watch these characters come to life through art you do such an amazing job and it’s absolutely beautiful👏👏❤️ and I would love to see you do the cherub
The cherub looks so amazing 😢❤❤❤ I'm truly amazed!
I love your sculpture by the way very impressive. Thanks for sharing.
I’m not Christian, but I really do appreciate this beautiful masterpiece. I like how you depicted it with such vague descriptions.
Whatever religion you believe in, whether it be Christianity, Islam, Hinduism or even if you're an atheist or an agnostic like me, no matter what you believe in, it's always epic to see these fantastical creatures brought to life. And I can't wait to see what else you may create, Jazza. Maybe look into other mythologies or religions too? There are lots of creative stuff to pick from after all. ^^
Every religion has some wild ass creatures and I love when people interpret them.
Always love seeing your work.
Definitely the cherubim! Fantastic sculpting, you are an amazing artist!!
Q: If you've exhausted all the Biblical monsters, have you thought about monsters from other religious tomes?
I had the same idea!!!
A lot of the friendlier beasts that you would find in other religious tomes can be found as furious, hateful monsters in the bible! Fun!
Ok but isnt the bible so cool!! Just to see all these epic creatures come to life is just amazing!! If you do a third video the Cherub has my vote! The way you drew it gave me chills and I can only imagine how Daniel felt after seeing them! He was in such awe he was sick for a long time!
The word of God is pure. Thats all I gotta say
@@trustme3781girl what
@@Autumn_Leaves_Falling What what?
You're incredibly talented man !!! I'm in awe!
These are looking great! I hope you make more!
I was raised Christian and also love the use of religious lore (Christian and others) in stories like comics and anime. So started writing my own comic centred around biblical stories. So this series not only inspires myself to work harder but also shows me that there are like-minded people with an interest and tolerance for seeing someone else’s interpretation of these religious texts
The monster turned out epic! The cherubim would be a cool one to make!!
The leopard beast looks the most interesting to me. The line "and it was given authority to rule" sounds so cool and i loved your interpretation.
Definitely the cherub, that would look amazing, especially if you made the full body
The Ophanim with the eyed wheels would be the coolest to see depicted in an actual physical medium.
As a bible student, I am really impressed with how you literally drew the pictures. The Cherubim was drawn exactly as artists have depicted (that I've come across) in my childhood, so I loved how you made the picture come to life.
Amazing work here. I would love to see you tackle sculpting a cherub.
