    i love it when he smooths out it always looks like an unfinished piece and suddenly it looks like he chopped off someones hand and just mounted it there. thats how realistic it is

      yeah its nuts what a difference a bit of polish makes. I mean literally i wouldn't have thought the thing my art was missing was literal polish but thats all he does, a few well placed cuts and some polish and it all changes

      male and female hand have different finger lengths, thicker / thinner fingers and more / less fat pads in the palm. all those details are attained in the general shapes, as well as how much he shaves away

    • @jamilynn322
      @jamilynn322 10 лет назад +2

      In his early books, Philippe works with WED clay, which is a very smooth water based clay and is easy to blend and shape. I've worked with it and it's great for practice and making masters, but it's not a permanent material. I think he may work with another water-based clay now, but they're very similar.

    • @jamilynn322
      @jamilynn322 10 лет назад +3

      I have to correct my earlier comment about the WED - I went back through my notes and found it was Laguna Clay company that recommended the WED as "a favorite of movie and large-scale figurative artists"; Mr. Faraut was not the one who recommended it. I have personally used WED and think it's outstanding, but it's not what he's using in this video. Sorry for the incorrect information.

    What's very interesting about this is how intuitively we can understand the concept even if we probably can't do it quite as well. It's easy to make the shape of a hand, you look at yours all the time. You probably even remember what they look like. This is one of those videos that shows you: you can do it. You can.
