Tutorials

Ever find yourself wondering just how someone managed to create an image using different effects?

Here are three simple tutorials we hope will encourage you to try something new.

The Hot Seat

A lifelong interest in landscape photography has led Eyal Oren to make a study of his adopted hometown of Marblehead, MA. As you can see, his dedication is paying off!

Africa!

Dgrinners Harryb, Pathfinder, and others joined Andy Williams and Marc Muench on Safari in East Africa recently. Here are some awesome threads to check out!

Here is the building of a sculpture. I haven't touched clay in over 40 years. I was getting restless (yeah, yeah I know, it takes me a while ). I have no ego for this stuff, I'm doing it for the money, maybe I can sell some of these.

This is how one guy builds a model to be cast in bronze

The piece is an iconic sculpture of ... you guess. Structurally its like sculpting an elephants head resting on his trunk; there are engineering issues. Anyway , no problems getting the model done in 17 days (with one molder's redo)

6 I had to seal all porous material for the mold maker


There was some additional finishing to the hair after this, but this is about how it went. These models are rarely pretty & it will be destroyed upon opening the mold.
