This is the most beautiful wood/resin sculpture I have ever seen. This is my first video I seen of yours, so I binged watch some videos. You are absolutely amazing, so talented, just beautiful work definitely a new subscriber keep up the great work.
I watch dozens of Carvers, Wood Turners, Crafters, and even a few Whittlers too, and I have never been so impressed by a piece as I was with yours! Truly stunning!
"We don't even really like him that much" - totally cracked me up! This looks absolutely amazing, you're so talented! I can tell I'm going to spend the rest of the afternoon watching the rest of your videos!
You have to start including client’s reactions to these videos. I would have started crying if I had commissioned this work and this is what I had received. Absolutely beautiful 👌🏼🏆
Thought $18500 was a hell of a lot at first but to say this sculpture is a masterpiece would be an understatement. You truly are a craftsman with exceptional talent.👍 that whale is beautiful and I’m sure your clients are extremely grateful.
@@BMSculptures I thought your concept is whale swallowing up a whole city from thumbnail... (hope it can be your next inspiration, LOL)... Overall, it's beautifully crafted... A well done job...
Like others have said, I have watched hundreds of epoxy and wood projects (lockdown pastime!) and this is by far the most beautiful, original and difficult project I have seen. If there was a master's degree in epoxy you would be the masters' master! Well done!
Dude it's like a museum piece, it's so stunning I can hardly believe it's even real.... I want one now with layes of blues going from the lights to the darkest
What an absolutely beautiful, unusual and totally mesmerising sculpture. The time and effort you must've put into its planning through to completion is a testament to your skills and abilities as an artist. I love it and using the leftovers for something wonderful too is a great idea. I'm an oldie and I just love to watch things like this. Ps..... does anyone else think that instead of a seascape 😂 it really looks like a cityscape with the differing heights of wooden blocks.??? Well done!!!!❤
I love this! I really love how the end piece looked like a city skyline inside and made me think how the built environment has impacted on the natural environment.
So pleased this channel came up in my recommendations. Not only a breathtaking finished piece, but very therapeutic to watch (though possibly not for you to execute). Incredible talent and genuine originality. Subscribed!
I always love the fact that he’s not an idiot and uses protective gear. Seriously the amount of channels out there that just go without eye and inhalant protection is ridiculous.
I am amazed with your sculpting capabilities. I once tried to carve a hand showing "thumbs up". Its on my channel. I was carving it for a long time and I couldn't believe how hard is to carve out "the right things" to make it look lifelike. I know exactly how a hand should look like, but seeing it in a piece of wood is a whole another thing. Then grabbing a dremel and start shaving off everything that is not a hand is a pure witchcraft! But it turned out quite nice, taking into the account my abilities.
thats awesome. Hands are actually really difficult to carve because they are always bent in different directions and angles with lots of folds and creases.
I absolutely love seeing someone’s hard work and creativity come together to make something beautiful! Thanks for sharing. Very glad you were not injured.
100/100 for design, skill and sheer effort! The wood composition in conjunction with the sculpting work is simply genius, and you're obviously a grandmaster with all types of tools. I couldn't stop worrying about all that toxic fine dust around and in your house though. I also hope that this brand and type of epoxy doesn't turn yellow after a few years in sunlight.
A perfect balance of wood and resin. I especially love the pieces of wood that are "floating". You were wise to include "exotic" wood - it adds addition spectrum of colors and tones. Congratulations on a job well done.+++++
The texture the plastic left behind was actually really nice, it looked like a sort of blurred shower glass door, or raindrops on a window 🤩 Edit: With the resin/wood chips I feel like you could use those to make cloud-like or short curly hair textures in projects 🤔
You never fail to drop my jaw to the floor with your amazing work. Also, I’ve never seen anyone hold their sculpture like a new born and honesty, it’s everything!
OMG, that took my breath away. Your Whale is the most stunning sculpture I have ever seen made of resin. I did guess the coasters which are beautiful as well. Congratulations on a magnificent sculpture. Since I was a kid I have wanted to make large sculptures but have never tried, I never thought about using a chain saw on resin so I might give it a try and finally make a sculpture. Never too late to start I guess. I make trays and coasters out of resin so I know how to use it but I have never made anything from wood.
One of the most beautiful sculptures I’ve ever seen, you were blessed with a wonderful talent that will only grow more and more with time. Good luck, be well and never stop creating🌹
Beautiful work! I love the use of penetrating epoxy to suppress bubbles long before the bulk pour! Another way to address your epoxy wastage challenge would be to build your normal mold, and carve or build up displacement blocks to fill in the bulk of the wastage areas. Foam or wood can be used, just make sure they're well secured. The advantage to this is that you don't have to worry about the mold failing catastrophically and spilling all your epoxy out. Both methods are used in various types of casting. What you did is similar to a custom mold tool for laying up composites. Using plugs to fill voids is used in metal sand castings when a void needs to be cast in the middle of a part.
Very inspiring. My best friend "the whale" had conniptions, seeing the making of a whale sculpture that ended up with curved wooden "ribs". Too close to memories of old wooden whaling boats and all that, but I told him it was a symbol of the whales overcoming the old technology, and I think he's fine now. Given the price of Epoxy, I might have gone for some sort of central wooden core, with the wood radiating out at different lengths, guided by a bent wire armature, and then building a compound curve female mould out of rings of plaster or cheap poly resin , painted with release coatings. Looks like I will need to do my own video and put my ideas where my mouth is :-)
First off, incredible work as always. Second, I think I might be alone in this but I find sanding to be very therapeutic. I use a full face PAPR mask, some good noise cancelling headphones with an audiobook and just let myself get lost in the work. Watching a piece slowly transform from a rough carve to polished finish is probably my favorite part of the process.
You’re not alone on sanding being therapeutic, one of the projects I was working on just wasn’t going how I wanted it so I just decided to sand the parts that were done and it improved my mood
My favorite sculpture to date!!! You absolutely executed such a beautiful piece and your client is going to love it. Amazing work my friend, simply amazing work!!!

That is the most beautiful sculpture. I could stare at it for hours. The attention to detail is excellent. Stunning. Just found your channel. Sometimes a video like this brings such calm just watching you work. Beautiful and so calming. Would love to see it on show in real life. Truly stunning.
"We don't even like him that much!" Haha that came out of nowere... I had a spit take of my coffee because I could barely keep it in from laughing. Nice one, dude! And GREAT work btw! You are awesome! Keep it up. Greetings from Sweden
Absolutely beautiful work. Love all the wood types used and the precision in everything. Part of me wants to know what such a thing would be invoiced at, but I won't pressure that publicly.
I'm only 4 minutes in, but I just wanted to stop and say how much I appreciate the work that you put into this project. You can really tell when someone has a passion for something and I see it in this work... Never stop. 👍 *edit* Just had to lol at your decision to bring the giant tub of curing epoxy resin into the nursery, right next to the crib... 😆 🤣
What an incredibly beautiful peace of art, appears to have a very tactile feel to it, fabulous work, absolutely love it, would certainly look great in my house so whoever the client was they are incredibly lucky 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
If I had to guess I'd say in the 5-10k range, factoring in material costs of the exotic wood, epoxy, plus the guy who made the base, nameplate and supports, then all the labor time involved carving, sanding, polishing, plus shipping.
Holyshit, that's beyond amazing. I absolutely love to watch creative people shining while doing what they love. I completely get the tedium of this type of work, but once it's finished the sense of accomplishment is almost overwhelming. Great Job, from a new sub!!
I love your work and the funny thing is if I seen this alone and someone told me it cost $10,000 I wouldn't say it's worth it but after watching the world that goes into it I would happily pay over $10,000 for this P.s. bro I gotta give you bonus points for that hairline
@@BMSculptures not at all bro your hair is looking good I wish mine was that thick I was being serious I started losing mine in the 20s and just gave up 🤣
What I find astonishing is that we live in a world where a banana taped to a wall goes for hundreds of thousands, when there are masterpieces like this...
We live in a world which has turned its back on the God of truth, and so it has a hatred for the truth, including true beauty. It's very sad, because we are heading for destruction!!! ;( We must turn from our rebelliousness against his laws, and cry out to him to have mercy on us because of Christ's sacrifice to pay the punishment for the sins of those who would put their trust in him. If we do this, he promises to hear us and forgive all of our sins and adopt us as one of his own children who will be taken to Heaven at our death. We must then spread this message of hope to our perishing fellow-men, in the hope that they will listen and turn from their evil ways and live. Please do this, my friend!!! Jonathan
When it comes to the world of investing, most people don't know where to start. Fortunately, great us investors of the past and present can provide us with guidance.
My first investment with Mr Dave Jevans gave me the assurance that have made me invest without the fear of losing, I got four of my friends involved with him already
I looked it up and it says as long as it’s exposed to moisture, air and UV light then it will yellow and there doesn’t seem to be a way to reverse it.😕 update another site says you can sand off the yellow resin to remove the top layer or paint or dye it.
factor in the cost, skill, talent, initial cost of all the tools and space as well as the threat to personal safety (dude did almost cut himself with a chainsaw)
not true at all, 18k is crazy and u r dumb as a rock if you pay that but 800$ come on lmao. Epoxy and wood alone was probably half that and then labor and cost for him having all the tools it should be around 4-5k on the very high end.
It took him a very long time to make the sculptures so it should be more than 800 bucks. That being said 18000 is an outrageous amount I would pay about 3000-4500
Bro I live in Yuma Az. I can literally walk across the border and get better results for a faction of the cost. You must be in league with housing realtors in the US.
Then go do it. And they aren’t creating original pieces of art like this in Mexico. They copy creative people like this guy but people don’t like uncreative lazy copycats. There’s nothing special about that. People want a piece of art featured on his channel from a guy building sculptures all over the world. One of the absolute most low IQ takes about things like this is the “just get me a piece of paper and I’ll do it for a fraction of the cost”. Do you not understand people are paying for the name? His name has value for collectors. People always say that “man i could go to the 3rd world and get that for a fraction of the cost”. It’s cheaper because they are always behind. It takes more money and time to actually create things that no one else has made. It’s cheaper and doesn’t take as long to copy stuff.
That looks like some dirty and musty ol pile of crap you'd find at a Goodwill for less than a dollar. It's never surprising the kind of garbage people who inherited mommy and papa's money will spend it on.
What do you guys want to see me carve next???
Horse
What about a giraffe with cool patterns? Btw, it looks like a city inside the whale, next lvl awesomeness.
A full sized person
A bull
A flying saucer, a pyramid, a virus, one inside of the other. No joke. Super essoteric, but cool.

@@fightmaster-xu6zw Price to the client? My guess. . . $4400. . .
@@Cyberdactyl i would pay a lot for that u know
@@Cyberdactyl i would think closer to $10,000. it looks like it took a long time, maybe a month?
Great project and video. Also great narration :)
Thanks Amir!
I don't really see any comments on it but the coasters are so cute and probably so meaningful
That is the most beautiful piece of art I have ever seen in my life. You are so talented and gifted
That is the most beautiful sculpture. I could stare at it for hours. The attention to detail is excellent. Stunning. Just found your channel. Sometimes a video like this brings such calm just watching you work. Beautiful and so calming. Would love to see it on show in real life. Truly stunning.
"We don't even like him that much!" Haha that came out of nowere... I had a spit take of my coffee because I could barely keep it in from laughing. Nice one, dude! And GREAT work btw! You are awesome! Keep it up. Greetings from Sweden
Absolutely beautiful work. Love all the wood types used and the precision in everything.
Part of me wants to know what such a thing would be invoiced at, but I won't pressure that publicly.
I'm only 4 minutes in, but I just wanted to stop and say how much I appreciate the work that you put into this project. You can really tell when someone has a passion for something and I see it in this work...
Never stop. 👍
*edit* Just had to lol at your decision to bring the giant tub of curing epoxy resin into the nursery, right next to the crib... 😆 🤣
That is beautiful! Have you ever considered making hexagonal blocks of wood? Yeah it is considerably more work but the look may be worth it.
hmmmmm... This is very interesting. or even a bunch of squares in random positions
Flawless. Magnificent. ❤
You are super talented, love these sculpture results
Thanks so much 😊
What an incredibly beautiful peace of art, appears to have a very tactile feel to it, fabulous work, absolutely love it, would certainly look great in my house so whoever the client was they are incredibly lucky 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Curious what a commission like this costs? Absolutely incredible.
If I had to guess I'd say in the 5-10k range, factoring in material costs of the exotic wood, epoxy, plus the guy who made the base, nameplate and supports, then all the labor time involved carving, sanding, polishing, plus shipping.
@@MultiTravellingman Yup, plus the skill needed. If he is smart he defo went for a 6-10k range.
10 K plus
Before you even started sanding I thought it was the most beautiful idea I had ever seen.
It looks cool but the fin looks like they are backward 🤔
The humpback is the only whale that has that ripple look at the front.
wow. that truly looks amazing. were you ever afraid that those fins would break off? i don't know how strong this is.
Holyshit, that's beyond amazing. I absolutely love to watch creative people shining while doing what they love. I completely get the tedium of this type of work, but once it's finished the sense of accomplishment is almost overwhelming. Great Job, from a new sub!!
It looks like there's a whole city in the whale. As a statement, that's a whole lot to think about.
Super creative!
I love your work and the funny thing is if I seen this alone and someone told me it cost $10,000 I wouldn't say it's worth it but after watching the world that goes into it I would happily pay over $10,000 for this
P.s. bro I gotta give you bonus points for that hairline
I appreciate it... I always like showing people all the details that go into it... Man am I losing some hair or what!??
@@BMSculptures not at all bro your hair is looking good I wish mine was that thick I was being serious I started losing mine in the 20s and just gave up 🤣
What I find astonishing is that we live in a world where a banana taped to a wall goes for hundreds of thousands, when there are masterpieces like this...
We live in a world which has turned its back on the God of truth, and so it has a hatred for the truth, including true beauty. It's very sad, because we are heading for destruction!!! ;( We must turn from our rebelliousness against his laws, and cry out to him to have mercy on us because of Christ's sacrifice to pay the punishment for the sins of those who would put their trust in him. If we do this, he promises to hear us and forgive all of our sins and adopt us as one of his own children who will be taken to Heaven at our death. We must then spread this message of hope to our perishing fellow-men, in the hope that they will listen and turn from their evil ways and live. Please do this, my friend!!! Jonathan
Ain’t no way someone paid 18,500$ for this. I should really start making and selling things
lol wait until you hear about the woman who sells paintings she does with a mop
$18,500 is a lowball offer
The whale that ate the city! Simply gorgeous.
When it comes to the world of investing, most people don't know where to start. Fortunately, great us investors of the past and present can provide us with guidance.
@Alice Spencer How does this whole process works? I'm interested in investing in crypto but still confused by the fluctuations in price🙁
I heard that his strategies are really good
@@Sanlee578 Yeah, My first investment with Mr Dave Jevans he earned me profit of over $25,530 US dollars, and ever since then he has been delivering
He has really made a good name for himself.
My first investment with Mr Dave Jevans gave me the assurance that have made me invest without the fear of losing, I got four of my friends involved with him already
Won’t it turn yellow with time?
I looked it up and it says as long as it’s exposed to moisture, air and UV light then it will yellow and there doesn’t seem to be a way to reverse it.😕 update another site says you can sand off the yellow resin to remove the top layer or paint or dye it.
18.5k for some epoxy and wood.. i think i'll change careers
factor in the cost, skill, talent, initial cost of all the tools and space as well as the threat to personal safety (dude did almost cut himself with a chainsaw)
Bruno did such a good job!!
Amateur hour over there. Idiots that paid 18000 for that. Worth 800$
not true at all, 18k is crazy and u r dumb as a rock if you pay that but 800$ come on lmao. Epoxy and wood alone was probably half that and then labor and cost for him having all the tools it should be around 4-5k on the very high end.
It took him a very long time to make the sculptures so it should be more than 800 bucks. That being said 18000 is an outrageous amount I would pay about 3000-4500
Bro I live in Yuma Az. I can literally walk across the border and get better results for a faction of the cost. You must be in league with housing realtors in the US.
That's messed up dude
Then go do it. And they aren’t creating original pieces of art like this in Mexico. They copy creative people like this guy but people don’t like uncreative lazy copycats. There’s nothing special about that. People want a piece of art featured on his channel from a guy building sculptures all over the world. One of the absolute most low IQ takes about things like this is the “just get me a piece of paper and I’ll do it for a fraction of the cost”. Do you not understand people are paying for the name? His name has value for collectors.
People always say that “man i could go to the 3rd world and get that for a fraction of the cost”. It’s cheaper because they are always behind. It takes more money and time to actually create things that no one else has made. It’s cheaper and doesn’t take as long to copy stuff.
BEYOND THRILLED you said ! WOW ! I SHOULD SAY SO ! ITS A MAGNIFICENT PIECE !
$18,000 my ass. This thing is worth around a grand.
definitely not worth 18k but who know some dumb rich house wife will probably pay that
That looks like some dirty and musty ol pile of crap you'd find at a Goodwill for less than a dollar.
It's never surprising the kind of garbage people who inherited mommy and papa's money will spend it on.
