I know on your video you said it was noncommissioned. The Legasea Aquarium is being built currently by the creator Brian Barcyk in Utica Michigan. Might give them a call as they are building a HUGE shark tank.
I actually really liked the "plain" or "natural" shot from the end of the video. It gave me a better idea of how amazing this sculpture actually looks!
I just don't have the right words for BOTH of you guys' talent. 1200 hours seems like nothing compared to what I would have guessed. The engineering on the mechanism is only matched by the talent on the carving and design. I loved the collaboration! Thanks for letting us in.
Before you even mentioned it, I thought that the "battle scars" were a perfect compliment. I was hoping that you wouldn't eliminate them, and I was pleased to see that you incorporated it with the design.
This was such a fun project to work on. I really enjoyed collaborating with Blake and working together to bring this thing to life. We coordinated our separate efforts and then were able to unite and work together to see the pursuit in motion. More than anything, I love it when a plan comes together. I can’t thank Blake enough for asking me to join the project and for the wonderful hospitality that the McFarland family provided me for a week. This was a dream collaboration and I can’t wait to see if there is something else we could make in the future… What else could we make?
A wolf chasing a deer, or grizzly chasing a baby elk since he likes doing bears maybe. It would be much harder though cause you would have to engineer a way for the legs to love along with the body. But I got faith in ya you've done harder stuff before
Amazing work. This collab brought me so much fascination and mirth. I was thinking of an Otter family playing with a fish in seaweed. Momma teaching the pups how to fish. Seaweed waving with currents. Maybe a little bioluminescence in seaweed. Jelly fish floating in the water. Or... The "alien" popping out of Bishops belly.
A beating human heart; use an old cardiac monitor that you could put to pacing mode that would control the speed of the heart. Add the monitor to the base.
Gosh, I hope this gets to be in an aquarium or a children's museum. I can see this inspiring so many children to try art and engineering. Amazing job, you two. This sculpture is beautiful.
You should definitely do more ocean themed projects. Seeing something from the water come to life out of something from the land is poetically and visually perfect. Top tier stuff
Children’s Museum of Indianapolis… Also you could send this thing on tour from museum to museum along with a special edit of building the sculpture and how it’s made. Great for anyone in general, not just kids.
this thing deserves a place in a Museum... I'm thinking ''Natural History'' just because of the ''pursuit''... it would never fit in an Aquarium for the same reason... perspective!... wonderful job, congrats to both of you!...
The shark was awesome to watch you give shape to, and then the motion made it come alive. The seal, though, brought me so much joy. I feel like the seal is a smug little fellow, darting and staying just ahead of the shark, playing. Meanwhile, the shark is all patience, stealth and silent strength and subtlety, biding its time with the hope that persistence will see the seal slip up.
An interesting sculpture you could make is to make a coral reef with fish and stuff, then pour epoxy over it, then carv out the epoxy to the shape of a fish, whale, shark, jellyfish, octopus or something, so that it looks like an animal with a coral reef inside.
I knew you were up to something epic, but WOW! Thanks for the shoutout and I am beyond impressed/inspired by this project. Absolutely gorgeous work you guys 👏🏼👏🏼
Learnt something new in this episode. If you want to find out a tree specie then what you do is 1. Sniff it 2. Observe it, then 3. Give it a taste - These three steps will give you the correct specie as well as the year it first began it’s life. Who knew aye 😂😂
I think smell/taste can give you the species, and then knowing that, the size of the root base or the diameter of a log can give you a rough idea of the age.
I don’t think you could have found a better chunk of wood for that shark! Not only is it gorgeous but the bug holes were a bonus! And those individual teeth are awesome! The mechanics are beautiful as well and they certainly bring the shark and seal to life…the view from behind is sooo cooool. What an awesome sight! You guys are a great team!
@@BMSculptures Actually, thank you!! 😊 Thank you both for not only collaborating on this beautiful project but for making this great video which made it possible for so many to see what goes into creating such an amazing artful moving sculpture! I love creativity!
I've got artists in my family. My maternal grandmother did oils on canvas and my aunt on my dad's side worked mostly with acrylics. I've always tended to like sculpture. I just think there's "more" to it than a flat painting could ever be. But you've raised it to a whole new level. practically bringing the sculpture to life. If I had the money I'd build a room with this as the centerpiece.
These are the sort of collabs I love, respect for the other's work while working to make an incredible piece. The end product is absolutely incredible you guys did a fantastic job.
Yes those last shots under normal light were friggin awesome, and THE LASER BEAM Was the swizzle. Maybe Mike Myers would appreciate having the opportunity to acquire the piece.
Oh my goodness, with every sculpture you make, they become even more amazing than the last one. This one is truly spectacular- the wood and the fluidity are stunning ( like you, I love the view from behind. Very well done to you both.
Gasp! 😮 That is magnificent!!! 🎉 Capturing the sheer essence of the great white shark and having the fluid motions and it chasing its prey the seal are just breathe taking beautiful! ❤❤❤ I always look forward to each of your beautiful and amazing wood sculptures with or without resin! It is so relaxing to watch you work and explain you ideas of how it's going to look and everything! ❤❤❤
I am filled with so much joy❤ I just watched grown men pour their engineering degrees and probably decades worth of combined trade knowledge into a wooden shark toy with nifty wiggling abilities. Seeing that laser beam thrash around with all the accuracy of a Star Wars Stormtrooper had me laughing out loud. This is the most sophisticated combination of "children at heart" and "boys and their toys" that I've ever seen 😂❤🦈
It brings me, and surely others, so much joy to see people working with their hands, engaging their brains, their ingenuity, and perhaps even channeling the divine, in order to bring such beautiful and imaginative things into our world. And not only that, but documenting the entire process for the benefit of others. So thank you.
That is an awesome creation…my only complaint/issue would be the extended gap on the tail fin part of the shark….looks a bit bigger than the rest …..but still I give it an A++ rating
I have seen a LOT of woodworking collaborations on RUclips. This was by far the best I've ever seen! Amazing sculpting and mechanics. Fantastic finish! Thank you for this video. Made my day!
The admiration for each others skill set is quiet cool to hear. As somebody who has intrest in both to see two different masters in their own fields work together to bring something to life like this is awe-inspiring
I wonder if the Georgia Aquarium would be interested...one of the biggest and best aquariums in the nation. We just happen to be going in a couple of days!
This is one of my favorite video channels. Blake is a stunning artist. From concept to design to execution and finish, his work is brilliant. I am fortunate. I live close enough to his studio that I get to see his next idea become a work of art.
What a Real WOW!! All that time........... Yep you two greats have made a diamond! I'm curious about what the finish is that is followed with the IR lite? This puts "Capital A" in Awesome, Thank you for your Talents
OH. The sculpture is beautiful. You should definitely do more ocean-themed projects. Seeing something from water come to life from something from land is visually and poetically perfect.
Every time you mention how blown away you are by the mechanics and engineering, I can't help but imagine how many minute calculations you did in your own mind to carve angles, facets, and curves and then the experience and artistry required to smooth and sand that much wood to have it looking so amazing. In appreciating someone else's expertise you realise how long it must take to get to the point of mastery.
I find myself screaming at the screen “go seal! Go!!!” Gorgeous piece of walnut and the workmanship from both Artists really brings this idea to life. 💖
I have watched a bunch of your videos, but this is by far my favorite! I am stunned by how well this turned out, and the effort that went into this. In a world that routinely settles for "good enough," you two have shown that there is room for extraordinary excellence! Seriously, I don't know how you can "top this." But, I will eagerly awaiting. . .
This made my eyes water-it’s so beautiful! You should reach out to museums and oceanographic institutes! I think they would be thrilled to buy this. Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution comes to mind. Wow! I’m completely gobsmacked. Well done!
You have no idea how grateful i am that i found your channel, everytime i watch you I learn sth new and i couldnt be more thankful to you. Thanks for being you and thanks for the entertaining sculptures and videos ❤❤❤
I love your anatomical details, and seeing that sinuous shark motion next to the seal’s rather goofier mammal-swim with the vertical motion is awesome.
Just a wonderful piece! I can't tell you how many wood sculpting videos I have watched and they always blow me away... This one definitely belongs in a museum. Kids discovery or modern art... Either way, it belongs on display. Very cool.thanks for sharing 🦈
The only bit of constructive criticism I have is that there shouldn’t have been a hard edge around the eyes. The wood should have been contoured down to the edge of the resin. But man this project blew me away, you’re both amazing at your crafts.
Outstanding piece as expected. As a scuba diver, that ominous serpentine movement is nearly perfect. This coming from a guy thats been up close. One personal note if I may. Many years ago I created a giant redwood puzzle I called Quest. it was officially recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as the World's largest mechanical puzzle. To the point... I created a mountain of wood chips and saw dust doing it and was approached by the owner of a dog kennel. He wanted it for bedding for his dogs. Maybe thats an option for your waste material? Thanks for the video. I'm never disappointed.
Hey I'm a long time bespoke post customer but I'm also a huge fan of this artist and an even bigger fan of new artists. The selection of wood is exquisite, as is an artist that appreciates wood to begin with. I'm just so fascinated with this! Thank you I suppose
Fun shark biology connection to your sculpture! Great White Sharks are one of a handful of shark species that are “obligate ran ventilators” - which means their ability to breathe is dependent on their constant motion in water. To stay alive, they literally can not stop swimming. I don’t know if it was intentional or not, but major kudos to you both for creating an even more life-like great white! I love all your work but this one is a new favourite - bringing together art, engineering, and biology!
Immediately heard Robert Shaw’s voice in my head the minute you started carving out the holes for its eyes. Thanks for reading my mind, and for making this amazing piece. The reveal at the end was mesmerising. 🇬🇧
The amount of time you both spent creating this 'illusion' was well worth the out come! These 2 sculptures and the mechanics for making the shark and seal fluid are beyond words! For myself, I enjoy seeing the REAL look of a project. Makes it look more natural. Thanks to you both for showing us your creativity!
The imperfections that you get in wood eais one of the reasons i love wood so much. This build is absolutely awesome words don't do it justice you guys should become partners sbest collaboration ever!!
Amazing and breath taking! It's so real feeling that I kept waiting for the shark to overtake the seal. Wonderful work in the shark, and the mechanism driving the the display is just genius. Thanks for sharing.

how could that take 1200 hours to carve ...100 max... ur dumb
I'd actually like to see the pursuit in the Boston aquarium
I actually really liked the "plain" or "natural" shot from the end of the video. It gave me a better idea of how amazing this sculpture actually looks!

1200 hours is not much compared to how many hours people put into wow and ff14
Before you even mentioned it, I thought that the "battle scars" were a perfect compliment. I was hoping that you wouldn't eliminate them, and I was pleased to see that you incorporated it with the design.
Thank you Rick!
Adding the seal was a great idea. Made it into a story and 100x better
Thank you!
Was a bad idea, the shark flows much better. Seal looks like it has that disease that turns flesh into bone.
@@CobbidoAs if you could do better.

DINOSAURRRR, do a DINOSAUR
A bird in flight. Maybe a Hummingbird.

I hope to do so... Whales/fish/sharks are some of my favorite to carve because of how smooth they are.
Thanks for the mention Blake.
I could relate to your pain of chopping it into pieces :) Beautifull work !
Thank you for the inspiration for this piece! You do amazing work.

That would be amazing
Amazing and so much work went into it.
You are amazing! 1200 hours is a insane time , cant wait to watch the video
Over 3 months. 2 of us working together on it!

I am a biologist and i will say it looks awesome!!!
I am a shark and I agree!!!
I am a reach truck driver and I will say it looks awesome as well !!!
I build a lot of terrariums and do a lot of dreaming of things I can make. This is hands-down, one of the coolest projects I’ve seen!
Lol I got so pissed. I settled in to watch, not realizing it was a promo for the actual video
Haha sorry!!! Trying something new with this premier mode so I can be in the live chat during the viewing
Bro srsly ? I started the video and read this … I home you’re just messing with everyone here
Nvm this was just amazing to watch!!
Would you say that build went, "swimmingly"? 😆🤙🏽
This might be the best video on RUclips rn
You should donate it to Brian Barczyk's Legacy Aquarium and Reptarium
I would have ABSOLUTELY have used real shark teeth for this. Otherwise its amazing.
That is an awesome creation…my only complaint/issue would be the extended gap on the tail fin part of the shark….looks a bit bigger than the rest …..but still I give it an A++ rating
Only thing I didnt care for from Bespoke was how cheap the stuff seemed to be made, it was clearly mass produced, so it wasn't of good quality.
''I just love the fluidness of it'' as it wobbles around visibly lol.
Get this guy outta here 👎
Let me know when you upload your version of it because OBVIOUSLY you could do a better job 🙄
This is super cool! Reminds me of the life sized wooden seal swim bait another creator made! I believe he made a shark as well.
127 parts :)
I have seen a LOT of woodworking collaborations on RUclips. This was by far the best I've ever seen! Amazing sculpting and mechanics. Fantastic finish! Thank you for this video. Made my day!
Certainly there are dozens of zoos, aquariums, or museums who would love to have this amazing piece.
We hope so!
I think the bug holes add a lot of character to the wood. as long as they're not compromising the wood's structural integrity, i like them
The admiration for each others skill set is quiet cool to hear. As somebody who has intrest in both to see two different masters in their own fields work together to bring something to life like this is awe-inspiring
