Your work never ceases to amaze me! Great job as always. I have just one question. How do you texturise the surface so well, it looks almost as a real rock. I usually end up with a mud-like surface.
Gosh its so cool! I can totally see someone buying this for their black mexican snake named Lord Vader xD Question, can the mixture of grout and polystyrine balls be left in the closed bucket and be usable days later?
This would be awesome if it could be used in an aquarium as an African cichlid background. Your work is extraordinary. I salute you and your artistic creativity.
Sure, but u will need to presoak it around 2 weeks, before put fishes in it. Also like any cement based stuff, it will harder your water. So u cant use it with fishes or plants ,which are sensitive to water hardness.
You are an artist. Surely you don't just do animal enclosure backgrounds? Do you have garden sculptures, other sculptures in you r home you could show?
No i dont. :D Well sometimes i working on some escaperoom desings but thats very rarely! And ofc thats not public to show. But i dont rly have time for do sculpts to myself. :(
what do you think of SerpaDesign new video "Creating Paradise for the World’s Most Hated Toad (Cane Toad Vivarium)" and the technique he and Materials he used for the background? since i seen that video i been looking at Aquarium Backgrounds here on youtube your the goat hands down did you go to art school to become that good?
He did the same just i did with less practice, using the material which used by most zoo project and which is complicated to buy in my country. :D Well i dont think im good but yeah i finished some art school. But direcly i never learnd sculpting. That was self-taught. :D
I used your technique today, amazing. But how do you know where to put the cracks that it looks natural? And what do you use to make texture in the stoned, is it a hard brush? Thanks in advance 🙏
I dont know. :D I just did. U shoud watch natural rock formations! Its might help to feel it. I use brush for the textures, yes. Different hard brushes make different textures. Also it depends on the drying of the material. Need to practice a lot. :(
@@zoltanbackground honestly I've done one single slick video and it was so much work I never did it again haha. I think your video is great just as it is 😊
Very basic sculpting tools. In this video i use a faster timelapse method so its not rly visible but if u watch some of my first ones there u can seen it clearly, and a brush. :D
Thank you! :D I dont have fix mix ratio i just mix it for feel. But mostly i mix it till its something like the clay. Sometimes like a dry dirt. Its uppon the texture i want to create and the angle of the surface, because u cant use too dry mix for the ceiling or steep walls because it does not stick as well like the wet mix. You have to experience it!
Thank you! :D Sad reality i did not tried anything else material like the adhesive. Its just simply easy to get. :S I dont even sure i can buy here the mix u mention!
Amazing work! I have a question and it is about colors. The adhesive baumit… which color is it? and the acrylic colors you use are mixing you do or you work with just basic colors? Can you share them? Thanks!
So you don't seal it after painting the colors? 😮 won't the paint come of after time? Your talent is insane! I watch every single video and everything from you to learn as much as possible from you! 😍 Sadly I really don't have any talent in building backgrounds..😅
You are so talented and your work is incredible! What kind of ingredients are in the tile adhesive? I’m in the US and not really sure what to look for.
WOW amazing work, love all your videos. Can you list the tile adhesive you use? I’m definitely trying this on my next enclosure. Thanks keep up the awesome work 🙌🏻
@@zoltanbackground that's cool to hear. And you mentioned that any cement is fine but what about the hobby sand? I'm quite new so I'm not sure. Do you mean burrowing sand? Play sand? Is kinetic sand just the same thing?
