Description
This is a quick maquette sculpt for the gymnast I'll be working on next. This is 16" tall. I only spent around 2 hours on this to get the proportions and pose laid out. Not too concerned about details yet. I'll be measuring up this one and making the armature for the larger one next week. I'll try and remember to take some in progress shots as I work on it.Related content

how did you keep the arms from dropping? or is the clay just that strong?

There is an wire armature inside the sculpture much like a skeleton.

And if the image used for non commercial purposes? Can it? (I just upload my work, where use of your picture, to here (DeviantArt) ).
In this case would work with using this image.

And if I show you the commercial work to use this picture, then it would be possible to agree?
(I indicate the origin of the image...)

I appreciate your interest in my work but I would rather you didn't use my images in any of your own work.
This work was a commission from Stanford University and I'm not sure they would appreciate me letting others use the images.
I hope you understand.
Thanks.
Mark.

Lookin' really good so far. I like how you flesh out the musculature, first.
Can't wait to see it finished.
Happy 2009 to you!

2 hours?!
I like the sculpt like it is now...it's all sinewy. I do look forward to seeing the finished version though!

Two hours?! *envies*
I love the dynamic look of this piece. Even unfinished, it grabs the eye.

2 hours of work for that level of structure and detail. Can't even imagine getting even a third of that done in that amount of time. Amazing. I guess constantly working in the field has made a lot of these things second nature to you.

The form is amazing, even unfinished.
In 2 hours, I could maybe finish the armature...
How many years have you been sculpting?

Damn Mark, you always blow my mind. It's gotta be so nice to knock out something that solid in 2 hours! Love It!

Besides the model being realllly good, I love how you photographed it. The same shape from two different perspectives is outstanding! The outlines are almost exactly the same.

This is really awesome, I love it how we can already see the muscles in the arms and torso, and the hands look already gorgeous

Woaaah, thas pretty cool...I'm so jealous or your super sculpting powers. D:
What kind of clay do you use?

That's one hot buttocks. The musculature is amazing. I like seeing this piece in such a raw form, emitting an almost human essence. I can feel the tension of this gymnast, hanging in the air.
