So happy to see this video. Few of my goals of being good at sculpting are to make my dad, my family members, and my pet's statue. I will not stop practicing until I can sculpt as good as you! Thank you for sharing, your work is inspiring.
Thanks Chanida 🙂 I had very similar goal when I started sculpting, and went on to sculpt a portrait of my parents for their 25th wedding anniversary. It was one of the hardest challenges I'd set myself - sculpting the likeness of someone i knew so well, but also so incredibly rewarding. At the best for your sculpting ventures 😊
Rlca
I know it’s been 9 months but I hope your sculpting is going well and that you’ve been improving to your liking! ❤️
Oh my goodness it turned out so precious! As someone who owns a little chi and is currently in and out of hospital a lot, something like that would mean the absolute world to me. I’m so glad Kat has such a wonderful friend!
Thank you, thats so sweet. Yeah dogs are the best therapy!!
This was such a heartwarming video to watch! From cute little “Bitten”, all the way to the surprise for your friend! The finished product was awesome! I wish I could sculpt my 3 furboys!😍😍
What a wonderful gift to give for your friend! You are such a good friend to make that for her! Bitten looked amazing in sculpture form. I love that you added his fang and the trick you used to harden the fang, that was a useful tip! I am only just starting in sculpture. What advice would you give me as a complete noobie? Thank you for a great video. Love your work.
Tremendous video. Easy to follow- quickly into the project without having to hear your life’s story. Really well done and lived the joy of your friend when she saw her dog and the beautiful sculpture.
DOGGO!!!! 🤗🤗 Yeah I would also kidnap doggo 😅 LOOK AT THAT CUTE FACE! So cute. Amazing sculpture as always! Tho in the shots where doggo appeared...I was just looking at doggo 😄 the cuteness was distracting. Hehe.
Haha yeah she is pretty cute and distracting aye! 😉
I've just found you & I'm quite pleased that my first viewing is filled with adorable dogs and artwork! Your sculpture was amazing - and how lovely to create such a beautiful gift for your friend! I enjoyed learning about the process, too. Obviously, I subscribed immediately ☺️♥️
STUNNING ❣️🥰 Any pup mum would be so overwhelmed 😍 with the love that what you made represents.
This is so incredible! Seeing it makes me wanna try sculpture, your commentary was really wonderful and interesting 🥺
So sweet of you to bring the doggy to the hospital! Love it!!! Love it!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
As a sculptor who is owned by a Chihuahua (yep they own us, not the other way around lol), I couldn't love this more! I sculpt mostly food and fantasy miniatures, so this is going to be a challenge, but all your tips will absolutely help me. So happy I have tons of Cosclay to use as well. Thank you for sharing this! It turned out amazing!
Beautiful! I would've loved to have seen the flexible ears after it was baked and painted. Amazing work, and in such a short period of time!
Lovely seeing YOU, KAT, ROCKY AND BITTEN and a little bit of DENMARK!!! Another great sculpture…….
I really appreciate this video. I've been thinking about getting into sculpting and wouldn't mind trying to make one of my Chihuahua for my parents. I think they like my dog more than me! 🤣
Haha dogs tend to have that affect 😄 ive gotten used to people greeting my dog before saying hello to me.
@@SofiaBue Same. I live in a pretty small town where it seems like everyone has a dog, and we're all used to greeting the dog before the person lol.
Your knowledge of animal anatomy is what makes this amazing. :)
I am absolutely amazed that you did that in one day! You are a fantastic artist and a wonderful friend to make such a gift. The one little tooth?!!! :)
what a lovely gift for your friend, I wish I had a friend who could do the same for me and my 4 legged crew. great sculpture, thanks for sharing
5:31 i love you had to timelapse this because it was probably so addictive and funny to keepdoing that with the ears. lol.
amazing piece btw. i want to sculpt my mothers dog (who became mine after my mum passed) who is a poodle and pomeranian cross, though she looks more like a little terrier, the long hair of her tail gives away she's just a terror, not a terrier. And this video, while just a bust, taught me so much. especially the tip about using cosclay for things like the ears.
This video made me so happy! You are an incredible sculptor and so kind to make this for your friend. Just discovered you and wanted to say thanks for putting a smile on my face!
Aww you did amazing! What a nice gift to get ❤️
awhhh he’s soo cutee! I would just wanna squeeze him!! good job on the sculpture!
So much talent and work, amazing!
A longer shot of the sculpture on a rotating stand so we could admire all the details would be awesome!
Such a cute sculpture. I have a Chihuahua so I definitely am glad to see a tutorial of one being done. The eyes are my weakness. If you can't get the eyes right then it's not going to look like the dog. I like that you got the symmetry blocked off before sculpting details. Again really cute gift
You are such an amazing friend who happens to be very talented!. My Dog saved my life from many occasions. Without him, I probably would've been dead already. I can't imagine how much joy I would've felt if I received his sculpture. You are such a sweet friend Sofia! It feels good to know that there are still people out there who are willing to dedicate their time, love, effort, and energy into something that will make someone happy.
Thanks S ❤ What a lovely and heartwarming comment.
And indeed, dogs are lifesavers and the best therapy on earth!
Wow! THANK YOU for this lovely present! Such a wonderful surprice 🤩😎🥳 I love it! You make so incredible art!! 🧡
You did the fur so well! Amazing sculpting skills!
That's the best gift idea and the cutest model too ☺️ So happy to have found your channel!
this was SUCH a sweet project! And it turned out amazing!
This is wonderful. You are such a great friend❣️
Aww thank you 😊
This is a wonderful video! Really informative, well edited, and creative. Incredible job! Keep up the good work!
Thank you! That is lovely to hear from a fellow creator 😊
Omg this is amazing, you're an amazing friend, the sculpture is breathtaking 👍❤️🤓
You're brilliantly incredible as a person, a sculptor, and it would be delightfully pleasant for anyone to have you as a friend.
Stay you and brilliantly bright always, Sofia Bue.
Same is said to everyone.
Ttyl!♥️
So glad this popped up in my feed. Cute dog and great sculpt!
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching! 😊
amazing sculpt, what a nice friend you are, cute pup.
Thank you for such a lovely video 😊
Cool. The algorithm brought me here. You are very talented. I'm off to watch more of your videos.
I typically don't like small dogs, but that little one is so stinken cute! 🤗😍 You did an amazing job!
Haha thank you 😁
I love this style of content from you!
Wow what a lovely gift. 💜 My dog Maggie died 2 months ago and she as some features of a Chihuahua. 🐾I would really like a sculpture of her. I admire your work and wish you a bright future for your channel.
Amazing job! Congratulations, I'm watching you from Portugal!
Wow! You are so talented! 🥰
This was so ambitious! Well done.
this is incredible!!! you did such a good job
I love Chihuaha dogs so so much. Especially after two roommates had a little blonde shorthaired 🍎 head. His name was Freddie. I loved that little thing and then we all moved away. I'd love to have one for myself someday. Great job on picking up the details. 😸
What a lovely video. Love your work.
Fantastic! Absolutely beautiful! Well done 👍
Thank you 😊
She’s so happy!
Oh wow so gelling. When my dogs past I was looking for something like this for one of them... now I wish I had a talent for it like you do. Do you ever sell your work
Прекрасная работа , отличная собачка и не менее приятная хозяйка -скульптор
It's beautiful! What a great friendship = )
Omg. I can’t get over how cute she is! New sub. The sculpture is gorgeous! Your so underrated! Love the little snaggle tooth on the mouth too ☺️
thank you so much 😊
How cute when the little doggy was bitten the bag to reveal the awesome present to the master! 😉
You’re amazing! Keep up the great work 😍
Thank you 🥰
Little guy very patient 👏👏👏❤👍🏻
I just found your channel and subscribed. This is awesome! What talent! You're an inspiration!
Thanks so much Karen :)
What an amazing artist and friend
That's such a cute woofer ❤❤❤
Fantastic job!
really nice sculpture!
You are amazingly talented
Such lovely video Thank you!
Wow!!! That's really amazing!
Thank you 😊
Appleheads always have the cutest, doofiest, brain-dead little smiles, and I love them lol
Increíble!! 😍
Amazing dog, how realistic this is!
Omg!! I can’t believe I came across your video. I making a clay big guy holding a tiny Chihuahua. So your video is incredibly helpful. Thank you!
This is awesome! and the chihuahua is just a muse🤩
This is so satisfying. I wish I learn how to do that.
Just found your channel, loving your work. Do you have trouble with your spray paints reacting with your polymer clay? I’ve had bad luck in the past and am hesitant to use them, but I love the effect you achieved on this. Thanks for sharing 🙏
Very precious
I've got no idea why this popped up on suggestions, I watch a few terrain building channels but nothing like this. I'm so glad it was suggested though! It was really fascinating and revealed a few new techniques I didn't know about. Were the eyes made from prehardened clay like the tooth? Also I kinda love chihuahuas 😍 thanks for sharing and I hope Kat is OK and out of hospital now!
It's not theft, your dog sitting, I wouldn't want to think the dog was alone while your friend was in hospital. Hope Kat was ok.
I think the best part of making a present is the reaction of the person who is receiving it :)
Amazing work
Beautiful! Have you worked with air dry clay? I want to try it but I have to be careful of odors because of my chemical allergies. What type of clay do you suggest that has the least odors?
This is soo cuteeeeeee
so amazing and cute
Lâu lắm rồi mới được nghe lại bài này. Hay lắm ạ 😘
Nice Video and thanks for the Bake and Bound layer tip, I had some Issues by using Fimo soft clay as Base Bake Layer and my Sculpy did not stick to it very well will try it in my next Sculpt ^^
Thank you and glad you found the tip helpful. Yes the Bake and Bond is great and works across all polymer brands I've come across!
What a lovely pupper 🐕
you did a really cool job on this!
Thank you 😊
@@SofiaBue you are welcome! i have two chihuahuas,and you did a good job dog-sitting.
Ameiii.Trabalho magnífico!
Really cute ❤️
That was amazing.
such a lovely video
The sculpting was amazing......It didn't quite feel like she was in hospital though, eh eh.
Thank you 😊 there are many types of hospitals though 🙃
I love it and want to try this with our dogs. How did you make those eyes?
Thanks! The eyes are cast in resin from a mold (so much easier than sculpting new ones each time). I actually have an eyeball tutotrial coming up in the near future 😊
Amazing sculpture 😄🐶❤️ also couldn’t help but notice the bag - which indicates to me that you’re a Dane 😄 I’am too and would like to ask you were you buy supplies do you get them from Amazon or are there something’s you can cheap here in Denmark? 😊 as I want to get into polymer clay myself 😄
HI ... YOUR VIDEOS ARE GREAT PLEASE KEEP POSTING REGULARLY .... I WANNA KNOW WHICH CLAY IS THE BEST ONE FOR THE SCULPTURE TO LAST LONG FOR YEARS WITHOUT CRACKING, SCULPTURE SHOULD HOLD EVERY DETAIL, SHOULD DRY WHEN BAKED, AND SHOULD BE CHEAP. CAN YOU PLEASE SUGGEST ONE, THAT'D BE SOO HELPFUL.
love, Love, LOVE!!!
So nice!!
Tak Ruth 😊
Beautiful ❤. Can you heat the wood in the oven ?
I’m sorry but this stuff is amazing and you are wayyy underrated. I also hope your friend is ok!
I have a question, im recently new to clay and ive been watching a few of your videos to help, maybe its the type of clay, im working with air dry, but im trying to sculpt a head, ive sculpted before and it turned out great but it was with much higher quality as it was in school, but this time by my self it wasnt exactly sticking and it all fell apart and im not sure what i did wrong. Im very supprised that your head was able to stay up on the pole like that and i was wondering how? How did it not slip or fall off, was it not too top heavy? I find this is what mine was wrong with, it had too big of a head and the neck wasnt studry enough, is there anything i could do or is there any tips or tricks?
Oh no, it's so cute that I now need to make one of my family dog.
Oh Thats awesome!
Her dog is so cutee!
This was a total masterpiece
dam thats sick well done
Ej er skuffet over jeg først har fundet dig nu ! Hvor er du fantastisk ❤😮
