This is amazing! You really are an inspiration like the other comments say since im studying art at a level and i really want to work ceramics in the future (my course has already given me experience) and i just clicked on this to get more of a demonstration. Clearly i still have a lot to learn but thank you, i didnt expect to learn so much in so little time, ive always struggled when it comes to the best method for creating scales:)
Truly inspirational work, I wish the video was a little slower. I would like to see what exactly you are doing in key steps. Can you explain what you are doing to make the scales; are you using a tool, what tool or are you carving them? Also, what mold material and casting material are you using? Thanks for sharing and keep up the amazing work!
+polydragon1 Hi, I am pinching the clay into a triangle and then using a dental tool with a spoon like base I mash the clay onto the sculpt. I used super sculpey firm.
Fantastic work Dave, a well earned thumbs up, really awe inspiring. I draw as a hobbey and I really love to put in those small and tiny details that may not seem like much to anyone else but when others see the finished result, they then realise it was worth it, and I really love the fact that you take that pain staking step to work on the tiny details too. Although I know it's not for everyone and you need the time and the patience to work on those small but very important details. Everyone has their own definition of art, personally contemporary art has never moved me but this, is MY definition, absolutely Fantastic. I really hope you upload more vids. Just one question sir...do you sell your work at all?
+borgeslindu1 The original sculpt was done with Super Sculpey (www.sculpey.com/product/super-sculpey/). The final piece that I sell is cast in resin and then hand painted. davidleepancake.com/shop/#!/Dragons-Tear/p/54610770/category=14480458
Im blown away!!!! I love dragons and from 1 fellow artist to another THIS IS AWESOME!! Seriously Awesome im feeling like i should jst throw my clay in the bin after watching this haha Only joking But gee whizz! Amazing work!! Well done you Rock \m/. Tx
+Christy fun Hi, I had about 80 hours to finish the original. Once the mold was made casting in resin was easy. It takes about 20 to 30 minutes to paint.
Anyway you can do a video on how exactly you are doing the scales? I watched it several times and still cant seem to replicate it. What is I said SUPER DUPER please!
I went out and bought a hat just so i could take it off to you Sir. Just........just.....wow.....phenomenal
Wow that is a LOT of TINY scales!!! Amazing piece, love it!
+Polymer Clay Artist this piece was done with Super Sculpey.
David Lee Pancake stunning workmanship, did you count the scales??
Marc billions and billions...

Amazing work David. You are an inspiration.
I am so glad that was for casting. That was too much work for a one off. Inspiring work you do, Sir!
Cant tell you how big my eyes got when I saw the final product :D
This is called talent.

quá tuyệt vời , tôi rất rất yêu những tác phẩm của bạn.
superb job, I use jesmonite, it colours beautifully, odourless and non toxic, bert strong.
Saw this at school in art. We are doing a gargoyle project. Our teacher showed us this to show us details we could add
Great detail work...amazing!

That's awesome, but I would be in the nearest bell tower if I tried something half as tedious as that looked.
That is so So SO BEAUTIFUL! I love it! (Do you sell your creations?)
Yes, I do. You can find this one on my website at: davidleepancake.com/shop/Dragons-Tear-p54610770 Thanks!
How much time does it takes to finish one side ? Cause it looks amazing !
And what is the song ?
+Christy fun Hi, I had about 80 hours to finish the original. Once the mold was made casting in resin was easy. It takes about 20 to 30 minutes to paint.
Awesome work yoo
Anyway you can do a video on how exactly you are doing the scales? I watched it several times and still cant seem to replicate it. What is I said SUPER DUPER please!
I second this. Please show us more about the tool you used for those scales.
Katies Nana hes placing tiny peaces of clay to the sculpture
beutiful work
goodness gracious techno rave and dragons....
love the details on the dragons.fuckin awesome.....👍👍👍
Amazing!
wow that's amazing
Fantastic mate!!! how do you sculpt dragon scales?
Martyn Wootton I'm pretty sure he took a bit of clay with a thin end and made it pointed so that when he put it on, he wouldn't need to mess with it
+Martyn Wootton Each scale is laid down individually. I pinch the clay into a triangle and mash it onto the sculpt.
+David Lee Pancake that is a brilliant technique!
Nevalen Shierson you are correct. The More tooling of the work the worse it looks. Better to shape the scale and push it down with a smooth tool.
i wish i seen more of how the color was done and what not.
Working on that. I will have a painting demo soon. Thanks for your comment.
Wow.. Amazing
I LIVE IT
BECAUSE IM A DRAGON💘💞💖💕💚💗💙❤😍😮💓💜💛
WOW Perfect !!

Tell me something.. WHY ARENT U FAMOUS?!?
Very nice. Very annoying bg music..
DARKHITEKT thought it suited the video content well
DARKHITEKT I love some EDM/metal but it's very repetitive and makes me anxious. Cool sculpture:)
That is what the "mute" button is for, lol.
Alas, a musician I am not😎
That was rude. Try the mute button next time you are so annoyed watching your free video.
im a dragon and a girl
I'd just get lazy and make a ripof
not glas
ขอบคุณครับที่เอาดีวีโอดีๆแบบนี้มาให้ดู
This "music" is a crime against humanity.
irritating music
not very informative & music drives me up the wall
that awfull music
