Hey I Just used My hands and at last I used knife to just cut extras

My second sculpture (since I was a kid), loved it! Used a turning wheel i had lying around, a safety pin, knife and a loop tool i made from some wire and a takeout chopstick

This is my first sculpt for this course. I recently attented a 5 hour workshop for model making using Chavant NSP but the tutor recommended Monster Clay for continuing my own exploration. The workshop was enough to get my interest, I've worked a little with Fimo before but like the idea that oil-based clays can be reworked, and taking casts for anything that I think worthy (or for experience). For this sculpt I used Monster Clay and didn't use the foil core as shown in the demo (as I was sure I wanted to reclaim the clay from a first attempt!). The clay was still quite soft from being heated a little to get it out of the tray, and I think this meant that the sculpt was too inclined to relax the pose as worked. I found it tricky to try and match the pose to the reference images, so need to work on that more. I decided to stop at this point, as I felt there were too many mistakes building up so will take another go.

Hi, first post for the 5$ Sculpture assignment! I used school-grade plasticine that is found at local store (around 1.5$ in my country), and a modified old ballpoint pen with a wire loop on top for the tool. Mostly I focused on the overall gesture and form from all angles- although I realized eventually that the legs are too short. But I'm proud of what I'm making! Can't want to follow the next lesson!

My first sculpture ever. I have only made a clay ball before this. I messed up the proportions, but it was nonetheless a great experience! Used my fingers, and a little pin.

My second attempt at the $5 Sculpt Challenge.

My first attempt at the $5 Sculpture Challenge. I have to do it over since I got confused about one of the rules.

I want to video me progress are you using your phone?

Hi Andrew, here is the first attempt of my sculpture... I have face a challenge making the armature, couldn't find the wire which is flexible to play around, thats one of the reason the right hand became shorter... ordered a aluminium wire hope it will reach soon.

My first sculpt. The clay I'm using is too soft and sticky to allow for details, I didn't make the bean small enough and the hard aluminum foil was getting in the way, I eye-balled the proportions (which mostly worked), the pose is not the correct tilt and a lot more mistakes I can see, but decided to move on and leave it as it is. It's fun to see how drawing, rudimendary anathomy knowledge and 3d modelling come together to help with sculpturing. For tools, I picked.. tooth picks :D, because the limbs were not holding on, a lot of aluminum foil for the bean, and.. a knife, just because it was in the video, but didn't need to use it except for drawing center lines.

My first sculpt since 2017! I'm happy with the results given this is the third sculpt I've ever done. I used Chavant clay instead of dollar brand clay because the stores around me did not have them available. So I thought to spend a little extra on medium oil based clay. The rest of the tools were around the house. A small piece of wood block, a paper clip, a safety pin, and a butter knife! (Took about an hour and twenty minutes).

Hello. This is my first-ever sculpture! :) I used Monster Clay Medium + these two tools and of course my hands :) Time spent two hours.

My first ever sculpture! Thanks Andrew, really enjoying the course and looking forward to progressing! Used a nail file as my tool.

5$Sculpture challenge! what a blast! Had a chop stick as my 'tool' but used it just for the centre line - found it easier to use my hands for the rest. Thank You.

I retook some photos of my torso sculpture from the $5 sculpture Challenge since a lot of the comments about the sculptures was about photographing them in a nice, consistent environment.

Hi, my name is Claudia. I used a knife, scissor, wire, tape, foil, water, paper clip and clay. First I wanted to try the whole figure "trisha" but I could not get the foil into shape. Then I tried to build a shape out of wire/foil/tape. When I looked at the shape, I thought aaah naaa I'd rather start small :) So I chose the right foot of "trisha" (a toe would have been small). I don't know anything about anatomy, so I'm going to take classes to learn it. The same goes for drawing. I tried to get at least the ankle, a couple of tendons sculpted. I should have compressed the foot more. It is so flat. And the toes... :) But it was fun! I'm glad I finally freed up time to learn sculpting. So here is my worst work but not my best :) (English is not my native language so please bear with me)

First time try. Used some Filo plastilina and a wooden knife.

Hallo there, this is my clip figure, I was ispired by Michelangelo drawing "birth of Adam" is no more detail, it was vary funny for my use one tool! and Work too for my suprise !
