@EmileeKieffer 11 месяцев назад

Some (hopefully helpful) advice for the next time you work for epoxy sculpt: I work in layers when I'm working with it! So I'll make something, wait for it to harden up and then sculpt on top of that! BONUS! Waiting a bit for epoxy sculpt to harden up (but not COMPLETELY dry and hardened!) You can do more detailed sculpting! So if you ever sculpt a teeny tiny face ever again, make the base of the head, wait for that to harden, and then add the facial features so you don't end up smooshing it! THAT ALL BEING SAID: this turned out SO CUTE and now you got me wanting to sculpt tiny art nouveau women 😂

Just for the epoxy process, I’d recommend using a set of scales next time! That way it’ll be much easier to accurately measure and will therefore hopefully mean the curing process is perfect each time. I’d also recommend a chopping board of some description, and a clay-rolling pin. Just suggestions though! Thought the video was brilliant :D Sending love from England

@BusinessCasualLabCoat 11 месяцев назад

Aluminum foil works great to bulk out armatures for projects like these, and with clay that needs to be baked. Bonus hack: if you're sculpting a figure with a long skirt, you can totally skip sculpting the legs underneath. Just bulk out the shape with foil and lay sheets of clay on top like fabric.

@CranesCreatures 22 дня назад

a little bit too late but as a sculptor myself i would recommend not only to mix epoxy sculpt making two snakes and twisting them together like a DNA (it's WAAAY easier to blend them doing this way), but also to use cold porcelain when you need to imitate fabric. this material is used in artificial floral art and it's very elastic and can be rolled to a very thin layer! p.s. i love your channel and your chaotic energy and your art so much, you inspire me to keep doing my own stuff

I'm sure a tone of other people will have suggested it already, but you can also bulk up a wire armature with tinfoil to give it more mass and stability. That way you won't use as much clay, and it will hold itself upright better instead of smooshing under its own weight. Anyway thank you for introducing me to the world of art nouveau lamps, I am now PINING for the tiffany snail lamp that i cannot afford lmao

@DinosaurMermaidArt 11 месяцев назад

My advice about the apoxie sculpt and smooshy face issues: Mix up smaller amounts at once, and do the base layer first, and let it harden, and build more on top of it with fresh clay. If you do have parts where you added too much, it can be sanded, carved, cut, or filed away. If the bit of clay you're working with at any given time is too smooshy, walk away for 10 minutes and come back when it's firmed up a bit. (but don't forget about it hahaha don't ask how I know)

My arms look like a kaleidoscope each day when I get done, but when you get that perfect rosy pink flesh tone out of a few sprays of pink and yellow and just a spritz of white... *chef's kiss*. It makes me happy. The project is going to take me forever, but atm I've got that creative drive to do it.

Rachel had a good time. I had a good time. Everyone had a good time. This video is a gem!

My favorite era with the Arts and Crafts movement. Stupendous job Rachel.

It can be so hard to decorate in front of something so dramatic. But she fits so perfectly in the space, exactly like an occupant of your forest scene.

Rachel looking at lamps, channeling her inner moth❤

For sculpting, you can take tinfoil to build up the structure and you can also use smaller wire to make the head and fingers. I think the channel is AceSculpting, or something to that akin, and he’s a really phenomenal sculptor and his videos are easy and simple to follow!!

SO LOVELY!!!! Also! You can always start with some apoxie sculpt for the face and let that cure then add onto it (and/or also use some exacto blades, carving and sanding tools on it after it cures!) This was a wonderful project! loved every second of it!

I'm amazed at how creative you've managed to stay and how diverse your video topics are. I love when you bring new things to the channel, from a little felt frog boi to making costumes for your dog to a near perfect recreation of a movie dress to making/remaking furniture pieces, to... turning yourself into furniture pieces? It's such a bright spot in my week!❤

The good luck spot made me think of the Juliet statue in Verona.

i definitely thought you were making YOURSELF into a lamp, a la Lumiere But Make it Vintage, but this is ALSO awesome. also, "give it the old art school try" absolutely gave me flashbacks XD it's true and you should say it!!

Sculpting yourself onto a lamp, or cosplaying as an art nouveau lamp, either way, I'm going to have a good time and Rachel is going to enjoy herself (the most important part) ✨🌙✨

Rub n’ Buff over black is a game changer. It’s a wax based product, I think. I simply love your lamp lady!

You did a fabulous job sculpting with a very difficult medium. I use epoxy sculpt for doll modifications, the best part is because it responds so well to carving after the fact. That you were able to get as much detail in the face as you did, without carving and sanding after, is super impressive.

This turned out wayyyy better than I would have expected. Scultping this level of detail is harrrrrd. I was wondering if you could bypass the whole sculpting process by taking an old barbie, making her they way you want the result to look (curl her hair, glue fabric to her to make the dress) and soak the whole thing in spray glue to make it hard. Then plastidip, then paint. I think I will try that myself at some point in the future when I am in dire need of a vintage lamp.
