You just keep on doin what your doin caus I like what you make...
It's art is all that stuff...
Thanks again Glenn, i'll check out your channel..all the best :)
Not only are you an inventive sculpture, you can paint too. Excellent job!
Thank you for such kind words Ronnie, their very much appreciated :)
I think this looks amazing, I didn’t realise you could tack weld modern pennies… I guess it’s the high nickel. I would like todo this for a dragon body scales.. love your work and creations.. I make things myself so I know how hard it can be to get things right …. Love the idea… the whole side of the head on a wall would be incredible.
This is stunning. Another brilliant piece
As a novice to welding I have learned two things from this ...
1 - You can heat metal for bending with a tig torch.
2 - you can actually weld two dissimilar metals
Very informative. I love watching these creations grow
Thank you, more coming soon :)
cool artist,great work
Many thanks again Rissa👨🏭👍
Wonderful! Amazing! Brilliant! Eye of Smaug, Bravo master of Golden hands.
Thank you my friend, I'm glad you like it 👍
Wow, Wow and more WOW! Fantastic and imaginative use of the different materials! Truly a master work of art!
Thanks guys, yeah it really was a fun project...many thanks again :)
Limitless Imagination, You are a real artist, I really admire your work
Thank you Joseph for such a kind comment, It's very much appreciated :)
Wow bro you really have an eye for this stuff!!! But thanks for the video. As you know I love watching your working on the sculptures. But I truly appreciate the painting you do on them too! Thank again bro Anthony Kent
Thanks Anthony, yeah it was good to do a little painting again and it was a nice change to use a paint brush instead of the airbrush. ..thanks for commenting :)
Getting better every time. Love it.
Thanks for your support Thomas :)
How can anyone give this a thumbs down? Amazing purely amazing. This has got to be up there with the most piece's welded! And in time the dragon will grow older and greener due to the patina of the copper, but seeing it all spruced up with the wire brush I think thatI would be buying a few brushes! BIG THUMBS UP from me all day long mate👍😉👍
Lol just no pleasing some people Andrew... not to worry :)
Yeah there was a lot of welding in this one, my arms were aching after wire brushing it ... many thanks again for you much appreciated support :)
Awesome... truly awesome..
Thank you Richard :)
Wow! that is awesome. I really like how you used the coins in this design
Cheers Jonas, Yeah they worked well.
Outrageous!!!,,, awesome!!!!! Excellent!!!,,
Cheers Rich...thanks for your support :)

Superb rooster as usual
Thanks for that bud :)
Awesome
Thank again :)
Simply awesome!!!!!!! I am working on a full size rooster that I was commissioned to do. Cheers.
Thanks pat, i look forward to seeing the rooster build :)
Another amazing piece! When I grow up, I wanna be like you! :-). Plasma cutting spoons, welding on pennies, so awesome how you got all these tricks up your sleeve..lol. Welding Magician!
Hi again Jean Claude,Lol yeah I've been doing this a long time now, the welding pennies isn't as easy as you'd think, their copper plated so you hve to burn through the copper to get to the steel. I'm still learning little tricks every day, using a tig torch to heat metal for bending for instance. Thanks for commenting and supporting my channel, Stay tuned for more builds coming soon. 😀👍👍
@@roosterscreations Ahh, sounds tricky, I'm usually only good at burning through my paper money..lol..a whole different thing..😋 You've got all the tricks up your sleeve that all those years of experience bring, that's awesome my friend! Love everything you make!!
@@Jeanclaudevanderfield cheers mate, I don't know if you noticed, I've got you on my featured channels on my main page, hopefully get you some more views and subscribers 👍
@@roosterscreations Thank you so very much my friend!! I did notice an increase in views and suscribers!! You are too kind!! So you're an incredible sculptor AND and a great hearted guy, super combination!! Ill have to figure out what "featured" is, and return the favor somehow! You're awesome, buddy!!👍👍😁👍
beautiful!!!!!!!
Many thanks :)
Lindo parabens,todas as tuas obras de arte são lindas mesmo merece uma exposição em grande estilo sim parabens
Obrigado meu amigo :)
Where on earth do you get such alien level creativity?
Thank you for your kind words, this one was inspired from watching a wood carver carving a dragon's eye... many thanks again :)
Or they lost a bag of coins recently.
absolutely amazing
Mais uma vez fico facinado pelo seu trabalho muito lindo um olho de animal pré histórico fico pensando como seria enorme a peça com todo o corpo muito bem montado parabéns 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷👏👏👏👏👏👏
Obrigado mais uma vez meu amigo, eu poderia começar a fazer a cabeça cheia um dia :)
je suis francais , ton travail c est de l art bravo toutes tes realisations sont superbe : laurent de france
Merci pour vos bons mots mon ami :)
Absolutely awesome. I thought for sure you were going to make the scales with the spoons. Until next time *Chris *
Thanks Chris, the reason i used the coins was the dragon is hiding in the mountain of gold coins in the movie, and when it wakes up, all you see is the eye peering out ..thanks again for your support :)
@@roosterscreations i don't know much about the movie, but it'snot awesome job. I'm heading out tomorrow together parts to start accumulating pieces to work with.
@@preserving_the_past Fantastic!!.let me know what you make when it's done :)
@@roosterscreations 👍

Я обязательно попробую, сделать для себя 👍
Wow this is awesome!+.+ i am also a wannabe sculpture creator..maybe someday i will become one :) but need a lot of equipment for steel processing:/
Hi thanks, you don't need a lot, just a cheap welder and a grinder :)
Badassary!
Thank you :)
Buenisimo !!!!!
Gracias mi amigo :)
красата какая прям мичта нумизмата
super tare
wow
Thank you :)
Lindas mesmo queria ter grana suficiente para um dia adquirir uma delas
I think I’ve ask before but do you research a piece before you start, draw it, build as you go, or wing it. However they are amazing. Thanks for the lessons..
MIS RESPETOS ARTISTA FELICITACIONES
Gracias mi amigo :)
Soy de Ecuador y e visto sus trabajos y son de lujo yo también hago arte en metal reciclado
Gracias por el amable cumplido, siempre es bueno recibir de un compañero Artista :)
What do you recommend arc welding for this kind of work or gasless mig welder
Hi there preferably gas mig as its a lot cleaner welds gas-less is a nice cheaper alternative though..cheers 👍
That looks awesome! About how heavy is it? And what wire did you use when welding on the coins? I've heard of brazing mig wire, is that what you used?
Hi there, its not all that heavy poss 5-7 kg no it was just mild steel wire as the coins are made from steel.
Never seen using a TIG torch to heat metal. Can yu please tell me how far do you keep the tip from the metal? With gas or no gas? Amperage? Thank you and keep up the great work
👍👌👏
Zbychu Lolo 😀👍👍
Bellissimo
Grazie amico mio :)
omg im gob smacked ...did you spray lacquer the eye or coat it in clear resin ...its a fantastic peace of work
Hi, Many thanks . it's done with spray lacquer :)
i love it so much so i want to try and make one if that ok by you i may just end up with a lump of metal though lol
Thanks again....Why not try ? it's quite a simple build :)
cheers ..(-;
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Благодарю вас!
👏😊
did i just saw u cut a spoon with ur tig torch ????
Hi there...Lol no it was my plasma torch i was using...cheers :)
what are those coins made of are you in uk? our coins are crap here in australia
Hi there, their made from steel copper coated...I'm in Scotland :)
yeah ours are 75% copper and 25% nickel im going to give braising or soldering them a crack . I really love your work have been watching your creations a couple of years. my stuff is usually a little larger but im trying to downsize a bit make the shed/yard more easy to manage lol yeah I only asked the question because our coins aren't magnetic.
@@brokenanvilmetalcraft4916 Thank you for supporting my channel over the years, its very much appreciated :) braising or soldering should work just fine but time consuming :( Yeah i used to do larger works but found that most of my customers prefer table top pieces... thanks again for commenting and i'm glad I'm inspiring you :)
Where do you source your raw materials
Hi Casey, i have been gathering for many years now, i buy from auctions, house clearance,car boot sales and people just give me stuff.
@@roosterscreations wow thanks I didn't even think about estate sales
:)
yes im subscribed to him as well but i prefer yours
Thanks for that :)
im inspired thanks
Now that’s worth $omethin… lol
Molta fantasia
Molta bravura
OK 10+++
That is a nice piece, however there is one thing that is bothering me. I believe that you put the scales on the wrong way. I think you should have started the scales from the bottom up. So that way water and moister runs down, much like a roof, you install shingles from the bottom up so water don’t get trapped. If you look at nature scales and feathers alway start from the bottom up to the head. Anyhow I’ve seen several of your videos and you are an amazing sculpture.
What scales??? This is smaugs eye looking out from the mountain of coins, the coins are the giveaway.
