It's mind-blowing to me how accurate and realistic that looks. I just bought some sculpting clay today (6-26-19) and already having a very hard time attempting to sculpt my face. The face I made looked like a cartoon character on my 1st attempt. Good job with that sculpting tho Mr. Schnitz Pro
hi, have you a good level now ? 2 years later
@@icicestparis Hello, and I did better on an attempt to sculpt my face as of August of 2019. I still couldn't get the clay form to look exactly like me, but I added some of my hair to it after a haircut. I haven't attempted to sculpt from clay again ever since. It's just too complicated for me.
@@bracebrooks967 Sounds like you had very unrealistic expectations from your yourself as a beginner. Practice and learn the proportions of body parts, their scale and geometry. You will get there. My sculpting is at a completely different level than when I first started. It's a learning process that's fun, and progress made from mistakes is a big confidence booster.👍
@@skateboardingjesus4006 I'd rather pay someone with sculpting experience to make a statue of me, and pay him or her for it, but in order to even consider doing that I'd have to become rich first.
@@bracebrooks967 Did you air-dry the sculpture? Did it get cracks?
I’m about to dive into clay sculpturing for the first time. I’m particularly interested in faces and busts for some unknown reason. So I’m scouring UA-cam videos to get an idea on how to begin. Thanks for a wonderful video. You’ve kinda inspired me even more! Thanks. Peace be with you 🙏☮️
Would you mind sharing if you found any other good ones? I’ve been wanting to get into sculpting for years; so I’m on the same boat. I’ve finally decided I don’t want to keep pushing it off.
looks like manuel neuer :) good job
Muad'dib I doubt that's a coincidence
Exactly what I was thinking at the thumbnail :)
It is Manuel Neuer!
Thats what I thought😵😵
@@maugrmx550 That’s what he was going for. Look at the background and you’ll see pictures of him lol

#Lots of love from Kerala🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Thank You, good luck. best regards
Looks familiar....
Great job on this demo and the work on your website.
Oh yes, i am inspired by your videos as well. I have your book in my bookshelf with honoured place. You are master, i hope one day to do it so good as you too. Thank you, best regards!
Mesmerizing to watch!
Oh thank you very much, I'm glad. Many greetings Simeon
This reminds me of watching Mustafa Naguib doing a demo in red clay back about 1970,and when he finished he took the glasses off the man's face and put them on the clay head.
Looks great so smooth
Thank you Claire!
Mr. Schnitz Pro How much for 30cm head to chest sculpt????
Looks like air dry clay, most clay sculpting artists use that type of clay. Easy to use & easier to apply paint after it fully dried after a few hours or few days. Which depends on the size of it & how much water was added during the sculpting process.
Yep o found a new hobby thanks for the video great 👍 👌 work........
Was about to say that's Neuer!! Then seen the man in the background 😂👏🏻
amazing! You're incredibly talented!!!!
Thank You :)
Sagenhaft! Mir gefällt besonders, dass du die "Vorarbeiten" und "Nacharbeiten" zeigst.
Danke ich versuch es weiterhin
Thanks for the content. Do you have any videos show casing how you set up and what you use to begin the sculpting of a head
Amazing…
What type of clay ?
Probably ceramic cone 06
Neueeer! Nice job
Thank you Ryan! Neueeer!
Amazing 😊
So smooth! Nice job! 👌
What type of clay are you using...please respond🙂
Nice
Same question I’m asking . Wondering where to get it as well I’d love to try
Polymer clay
Can you show how you make the structure your clay sits on? I couldn’t really tell what it is. Thanks!
Thank you for this amazing video sir 🙂🙂
Wow that is so amazing. But id like to know the recipe for the clay used please.
مبدع ابمعنا الكلمه 👍
Hey I’m sculpting a human head for my Art teacher so this is helpful
there's a very art deco feel to the man's features. also it feels like you skipped a bunch - as Benjamin Gomez states between 1:10 and 1:12....
Frumos 👏👏👏
So was it okay to burn tape in the klin?
I really need some glue or tape to surpport the stuffed paper, but will it be toxic fume or anything?
Can I use high temp clay? Cause I’ve been told that when you use high temp it breaks if thickness is greater than 2 mm
Yes, you can also use high temperature clay, the wall should not exceed 20mm.
You can use stoneware clay, lathe clay, or building clay. best regards Simeon
What sort of clay did you use
Nice work sir 🙏👏👏🌼
❤ how long does this take?
Fantastic work. He looks a bit like Gary Numan!
How many grams that you used on that
You are amazing!
Cool. Looks like marble.
yes, it's a nice material!
Hi, He looks fantastic. How do you remove it and how to dry it ? If you could kindly respond I will be very pleased . Thanks
that is exactly what I need to know??
Very nice!
thank's
When actions speak louder than words!!🎉😂❤
Ele faz parecer tão fácil
Gorgeous!
I really liked how this piece came out. Is this piece fired?
Thank you,
The clay is called Terra 100 from Boesner, which is a fine chamotte clay with 25% chamotte, very creamy and suitable for details. Yes the head was fired once
Beautiful, congratulations!
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. I'm an artist, but I've never tried this. However, for some reason I feel sculpting might be somewhat easier than drawing? Not to this level of course, but I feel like you can reach better accuracy when you can play with your hands to create an object than when you have to simplify it and bring it to a flat surface (I don't know if anyone understands what I'm trying to say, my language is not English)
hi, can i ask which clay did you use for this one?
How did you do that ear part
Bellissimo
Now do Dwyane Wade statue face
Tom Hankses son?
Woow👏🏿👏🏿❤
Thank you :)
Hey if someone could answer soon that would be nice. I’m 14 and I LOVE sculpting and making things with clay. Normally I do it at school so they provide all the equipment and everything I need. But I would like to buy my own stand to do clay on st home ! What should I buy? I’ve looked at different stands but non of them seem to be the same shape/structure as the ones at school or in videos on UA-cam.
Sharae Williams You can build your own head armature stand for cheap. I built mine yesterday. You just need a couple pieces of metal pipe, a flange and a wooden disk.
Where can I get my brother head made
with me of course :)
Amazing
magnifique
отличная работа
Fantastic work. What clay is it. Do you need to bake it after completion or does it get hard after drying.
Thank you,
The clay is called Terra 100 from Boesner, which is a fine chamotte clay with 25% chamotte, very creamy and suitable for details. Yes the head was fired once. best regards Simeon
Hi, wie heisst das Material und Werkzeug und wo kann ich das kaufen, danke
Muy bueno me gusta enhorabuena
sattisfying...
Amazing!
How much clay? What type?
Which is the best clay of the world to sculpt?
perfect woww what is your name s clay?
Did you bake or did it just dry with air?
This was beautiful and so inspiring. I want to purchase some clay for my adult daughter. Can you recommend what the and quantity clay to create something this size?
Thank you so much! I use clay with proportion of 25% chamotte in a grain size from 0 - 0,2 mm. With 10 kg ( approx 22 pound) you can already do something. Best regards Simeon
Mr. Schnitz Pro gee. Lol. I understood none of that. You mix it? I was looking for maybe a brand?
the clay is already mixed with chamotte (Schamotte) Otherwise go to a potter and ask him.
Wich clay do you use
Omg ❤❤❤❤
Brilliant!
You shoulda make Ronaldo!! lol
How to sculpt Manuel Neuer
what is the thing you done called when you draw the lines at 0.25 seconds??
Have you seen images of the proportions of the face? If you google image you can see. The sculptor is marking out the lines for the eyes and nose at 0.25 seconds. Hope that helps :-)
I made a face with WED clay and I planing to put on the wood and hanging to the wall. Somebody told me that sculpture will be fall and broke. Is that true? Is so, what can I do? Is there any product to seal the clay and be protected for cracks?
ROD Boricua dry clay can be heavy, not even a whole bottle of super glue will hold it up, but perhaps if you put it on a sterdy nailed in shelf, and let it rest there rather than hanging it up.
Ok, so you recommend me not hanging on the wall and is better is I just make like a base and then put on top of the table? that should be secure and will not be broke?
Hi there! I'm an art student and for my exam, I'm doing a sculpture of an ethereal beauty /faerie kind of woman (head and shoulders 40cm x 40cm x 40cm). I've never made a sculpture before, and I'm not sure what kind of clay to use. Could you tell me what clay you used in this video?
Thank you! I love your work, by the way :D
Hello Jane thats sounds very good, you should use clay with 25% chamotte, this is good for building stufe. And I use clay with a little grain size from 0 - 0,2mm but you can use 0,5 mm as well. The most important thing is actually the chamotte. I wish you all the best for you exam! Best Regards Simeon Decker
I'm on a low budget, as my school won't provide money for the project, so what if I used paper clay? The texture of the sculpture will probably not be the same, but do you think it will work?
Jane Goh paper clay is hard to work with, I would recommend oil based clay!
did you ever happen to find a decent clay that is durable enough to sculpt, but also reliable enough to harden and keep?
ich habe eine Frage,
wie viel kg Ton haben sie benutzt und kann ich das etwa mehr als 3 wochen bearbeiten? ich meine wird das nicht trocknen?
Love xxxxx
I was like oooh handsome fa-EMERGENCY LOBOTOMY.
What type of clay is that one? Did you burned or just leave like that?
teacher, beautiful work, what kind of clay do you use to sculpt?
Apparently its a closely guarded secret but looks like Roman clay
Wow sir,tis demo use for me...
Tell me the type of the clay u used and I'll press the subscribe button😁
marvelous
How much do you charge?
Nice
What type of clay is he using?
Thank you,
The clay is called Terra 100 from Boesner, which is a fine chamotte clay with 25% chamotte, very creamy and suitable for details. Yes the head was fired once
What kind of clay are you using here?
Amazing! Roughly how long did this take you?
20 hours
Beautiful, i have question. Why you take out the paper from head? Can i leave it there?
Because the smoke has to be extracted by burning, and this is not possible with all pottery.
looks like manuel neuer
c'est magnifique... combien de temps a t'il fallu pour cette sculpture ? merci
Oh merci beaucoup, environ trois jours 20/24 heures, cordialement Siméon (google translation)
How long did it take to make?
👍👍👍👏🌞🌞🌞
Teach me how to make it
My clay starts to crack (1/4 to 1/2") up the neck across the head as soon as I'm ready to let it air dry....WHY PLEASE if you know? D.
I think it might be that you used too much water?
looks great at about one minute ..then it gets ruined by finishing it
👌 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Please show slowly
is it just me or is that literally manuel neuer
yes he is it
@@mr.schnitzpro9817help idk how I didn't see the pics in the back
Was für ein toller Mann... Manuel Neuer, klassisch schöner deutscher Mann!
bravo
thank's
