    everyone's talking about the detail but the fact that the artisan kept such good track of the bigger picture and used that detail without muddying the larger forms is what really wows me

      @ape_object  3 месяца назад +59

      I agree with you! The most important aspect of a sculpture is a bigger picture. I think a piece without a bigger picture is like having your skin covered without bones. And the process of drawing a big picture is the most fun :)

    The fact that you're not using a vice and just holding that thing for such detailed carving is mental. Absolutely surgical level of precision.

      @@onetwo-gt2tr I think the wax will be used as a mould to cast metal later. Wax by itself is too fragile to be worn as a ring. So depending on the metal used as well as the gemstone used, its value will be higher than diamond on a metal torus.
