Sculpting a Draft Horse in Clay 

This is absolutely insane!...removing the armature from inside the model is like taking off your underwear in one piece without removing your pants! You are a wizard, Sir! It is very likely the most amazing clay sculpture I have ever seen! My most sincere congratulations... AND THE HORSE LOOKS UNBELIEVABLY AWESOME!

Finally! A clay modeler who uses fitting music for the model! Your great in more ways than one!

Wow! You know it's art when you feel sorry for the horse.

I liked how you showed how you hollowed out the horse, other sculptors videos leave that out too often and it’s important for drying correctly.

I would never in a million years thought to cut it open and thin it out and remove the armature. And a beautiful sculpture. Wow!

Absolutely amazing work... brilliant skill... and so full of meaning and significance (as with all great art). A powerful symbol of strength subjected to servitude and oppression. Very moving. Would be dramatic next to a similarly inspired sculpture of a horse running free. This sculpture conveys so much, not just the skill of the artist but a deep insight.

Love watching Phillipe sculpt. Especially laying down the planes of the form.

I can feel the emotions of the horse through this sculpture. This artist really knows the emotional life of horses, in addition to being a master sculptor.

I've never seen anyone hollow out a clay sculpture like that. Very interesting. Thanks for showing your technique.

Really appreciate that you show the hollowing out process and removal of the armature. That tends to get skipped in these videos. Very informative.

It was so amazing to see all the construction work to achieve this delicate figure. How the different stages of support structures give the clay just enough time to set properly. So apart from the of course brilliant artwork, I just was so amazed about the techniques.

I never knew how sculptures are created. Thank You so much for this demonstration. I was startled when you took the underside off to make adjustments but now I see why it was necessary. Beautiful work!

I have not thought to use twine that's brilliant! Thank you! Beautiful sculpture!

So nice to watch, gorgeous sculpture, you can feel the strength of the horse pulling through the mud! Love it.

As an artist of 2D, I am SERIOUSLY impressed!! It looks AMAZING!!!

Excellent! I didn't realise want goes into making a sculpture like this. Thank you for sharing.

Beautiful, as usual. Thank you for showing how to remove the armature and to hollow it out.

Welcome back! So glad that you channel is alive again!

Great job! A living sculpture!

Just love this. Beautiful !

Wow, there is so much movement in that sculpture

This guy knows a lot more about life than just art! Thanks for the video!

4:33 At this moment I was like “Yo wtf” and he just be dismantlin da horse

Love this video. The horse,The music. Very enjoyable!

The pose and musculature and incredible, you can almost feel the strain. Absolutely incredible piece of art.

I farmed with draft horses, and know every muscle , angle, and weight balance on the draft horse. This is wonderful.

this is child play for you, I got goosebumps when you cut open that horse, but you have so much precision, you are master of clay.

Ou, beautiful project! As alive 🐴. Nice work. 👌

The bit where the supporting frame was removed made me feel squeamish, which probably tells you how great this sculpture was!

Momentary heart attack when you started cutting into it. I get it now :) Lovely work

Full of life motion and strength, a marvelous creation, enjoyed watching, true craftsmanship.

Amazing job And the Music 😍

Nádhera tohle je fakt super.

Awesome work

All I can say is WOW!!!

It was very interesting to see how you used rope for the legs! I am making things in cake and the structures are so time-consuming to make and expensive to buy! It was cool to see the inners.

Magnifique travail ♥️♥️♥️

Beautiful, awesome

Stunning.

I used to be great at sculpting clay when I was younger. I've never touched a clay in years. This is great work.

Stupefacente!

The confidence with which you sliced away segments to hollow it out for firing was really something. I'm amazed the legs (and a dowel) were able to hold the weight of the sculpture. Did you wait any amount of time for the legs to stiffen up a bit before removing the supporting armature or did you just go in non-stop whole hog? Thanks.

Lovely!

Amazing. Beautiful

Espectacular!!!!

Your horse was amazing work
