Hello everybody.
For a long time I could not show anything new. Unfortunately. Now in my life there are big changes and I had to change my place of residence with my family. So far, new circumstances and conditions are very unusual and very different from what I'm used to. Now I do not have the opportunity to go online regularly. Therefore, I immediately want to apologize that I can not respond quickly to comments. Do not be offended, I do not ignore your comments, and I will definitely answer as soon as a good opportunity appears.
Over the years, I was busy with another project. I really liked it, I enjoyed working with this order. But now I will not show what I got after the finish. I will show a small fragment. Maybe someone can find out or guess what kind of figure it is. The only clue from me - this ship knows everything!
Sincerely, Alexander

Следующая часть фотографий. Они показывают, что скульптура постепенно теряет вес. Скорее всего, посещение тренажерного зала.
Очевидно, что теперь на скульптуре появляется сумка.
 

 
 








Что я могу добавить к тому, что уже видно? Я не могу сказать, что есть некоторые секреты в работе с инструментом. На этом этапе я использую большие долота и ножи. Меня не волнует, насколько тщательно материал может быть разрезан. Я не обращаю внимания на мелкие расщепления и дрейфы. Они скоро исчезнут, когда сцена начнется с более детального изучения фигуры. Но все так ясно, даже если я не писал об этом.
Я хочу написать что-то, что не видно на фотографии. Я говорю о времени. Когда вы смотрите на эти фотографии, изменения быстро проходят через ваши глаза. Фактически, между этапами, когда я фотографировал, проходили дни или недели. Причины этого разные. С одной стороны, у меня есть другие проблемы, кроме резьбы. У меня есть семья, дети. И я тоже должен провести с ними время. Мне также приходится иметь дело с другими вопросами. Но это не значит, что у меня недостаточно времени. Даже если резьба была моей основной профессией (и теперь она стала такой), я по-прежнему буду распространять свое расписание, чтобы не заниматься чрезмерной резьбой. Я попытаюсь объяснить свою идею, и я очень надеюсь, что это будет ясно, несмотря на проблемы перевода. Работа, связанная с художественным вкусом, отличается от других видов бизнеса.
Например, если бы я строил дом, я бы пришел на работу утром и постарался сделать как можно больше работы для смены. Это означает, что я могу закончить строительство раньше и получить за это деньги. Но эта техника не будет работать, если вы будете работать художником. Если вы смотрели фильмы о художниках, вы, скорее всего, видели, как они рисуют картины очень медленно. Иногда я хочу сказать: что это за глупость? Он' Это просто бездельник! Как вы можете сидеть в течение месяца на одной картинке? Это неправильно, приятель! Если вы не закончите завтра, тогда я увожу вас! У вас были схожие мысли, когда вы смотрели на художников? Я также художник, но у меня также были такие мысли, хотя я понимаю, почему художники работают медленно.
Теперь я попытаюсь объяснить, что видят глаза художника, когда он делает свою работу. Может, ты меня поймешь.
 
Когда вы точно знаете рецепт правильного действия, вы просто это делаете. Но художник похож на изобретателя, который не знает, что думать о его изобретении. И каждый шаг он делает так, чтобы этот шаг не случайно разрушил уже построенный. И только через короткое время можно понять, был ли новый шаг правильным или неправильным. Это первая причина, по которой художники работают медленно и осторожно, как сапер на минном поле.
Есть еще одна причина. Глаз устроен так, что, когда мы смотрим на то же самое в течение длительного времени, мы перестаем правильно видеть все ошибки. Я не знаю, какой пример может объяснить это, и я расскажу вам о подобной ситуации из военной разведки. В армии, когда необходимо следить за вражеской разведкой, ставят наблюдателей. Их задача - внимательно следить и заметить, если вдруг враг начнет готовиться к атаке. Но враг также знает, что за ним следят. И поэтому он может перехитрить интеллект, делая очень медленную прогрессию. Чтобы наблюдатель этого не заметил. Для этого разведка посылает нового разведчика наблюдателю, который только что отдыхал. Он был на посту вчера или позавчера, а затем отдыхал. И такой отдохнувший наблюдатель незамедлительно заметит любые изменения. Он увидит, что его партнер, который весь день смотрел, не заметил. Который только что отдохнул. Он был на посту вчера или позавчера, а затем отдыхал. И такой отдохнувший наблюдатель незамедлительно заметит любые изменения. Он увидит, что его партнер, который весь день смотрел, не заметил. Который только что отдохнул. Он был на посту вчера или позавчера, а затем отдыхал. И такой отдохнувший наблюдатель незамедлительно заметит любые изменения. Он увидит, что его партнер, который весь день смотрел, не заметил.
Тот же эффект возникает и у художника, когда он сидит за столом долго и смотрит на свою работу. Усталый глаз не может правильно оценить ситуацию, и тогда художник может легко совершить ошибку. Например, сделать руку у скульптуры слишком короткой или слишком длинной. Бывает, что вы заканчиваете рабочий день и думаете, что все в порядке, а утром вы приходите к столу, возьмите свою скульптуру в руки и подумайте: «О, что я сделал! Как я могу исправить это сейчас?
С этим Ангелом я имел тот же самый момент. Теперь я показываю фото 2 попытки. Первый стал браком только потому, что я не мог своевременно заметить, что я делаю неправильно. И было уже поздно исправить это и должно было начаться с самого начала.
И чем дольше вы работаете, тем больше становится цена любой ошибки. Очень обидно испортить все, что почти доходит до конца.
По этой причине художники работают не так быстро. В течение одного месяца у одного хозяина будет время построить высокий дом, а другой просто нарисуйте 1 фотографию или сделайте 1 скульптуру. Такая жизнь.
Поэтому я дам один странный совет: если вы хотите попытаться вырезать из дерева или камня, нарисовать картины или сделать некоторые произведения искусства - не работайте слишком быстро. Дайте время вашим глазам, чтобы они могли отдохнуть от долгого взгляда на работу. Это важно! Со временем вы поймете, сколько времени вам нужно. Слишком много перерывов тоже не может. Я думаю, что причина этого должна быть ясной, я не знаю, имеет ли смысл ее описать. Если вы хотите, чтобы я написал это, напишите, и я попытаюсь затронуть эту тему в следующих частях моей истории.

Now it's time to go on to the technical description of the work itself.
The first thing with which any of us starts to do a new thing is transferring the scheme to the workpiece. Here I have no new inventions. It's simple: I printed a drawing or a scheme printed on the right scale, I paste it on the workpiece. Although with this angel I had to think a little. The volumetric sculpture differs from many details of the ship. Often, one type is enough to make a ship element. Even in the carving, I often have only one circuit, for example, projections from the side. But with the angel it was not enough. I needed to combine 2 types: profile and type of face (front). I do not remember now why I did not draw a front with a pencil and decided to go a longer way. There was a time when I was interested to understand different 3D programs and build human figures in them. Around that time, I studied Zet Brash, but this does not apply to this topic. Maybe for this reason, instead of a pencil, I created a front view using the Poser program. Maybe for someone it will be an interesting solution. In this program, you can simulate any movement of a person. You can do both a man and a woman. Consider from any angle how complex and incomprehensible moments look like and much more on the table you can see what I did and the view from above). So I have 2 types on the workpiece: a front view and a side view.
 

 

 
The same stage shows the first stage of processing the workpiece. I did this with a circular saw. Sense, I think and so clear. Now I look at these photos and I myself try to remember what I wanted to do at that moment. I noticed that there was a patch untouched on the workpiece above the head. 
I think that I did it on purpose. Most likely I left it, so as not to spoil the view from above. I think there was glued there another kind. Means then it was then more convenient. It is interesting to consider old photographs.
P.S. I'll pause for this while I go to sleep. I'll continue tomorrow.

So, this story will go about this sculpture.

I'll start with a little prehistory.
 Once upon a time I saved a few photos from one marine forum, where this sculpture was made by an Italian master. I did not remember the name of that magnificent master, I have only photos of his work. She impressed me very much. At that time, I never tried to carve. And I liked this figure so much that I wanted to try to cut it out one day. So one day I decided to start work. She was just for me. This is not an order for someone. I started doing it for myself. In St. Petersburg was supposed to pass the University Cup competition and I decided to go there and try to participate in C3 with my carving. In that year, Ivan Trtan was supposed to come to the Cup, and I really wanted to see his carving with my own eyes, to talk with him personally. This happens only once in a lifetime. It was because of him that I wanted to become a member of the Cup, so that he looked at my work, gave me advice. By this point, I had 2 sculptures ready, and I decided that I could make another figure. And this 3 figure was this very figure from the ship Le Ambitieux.
Unfortunately, I do not know exactly who it is. I know that there was a lion in the book, and I do not know for what reason the Italian maestro decided to change it. Then there was no Google translation and I did not understand what was written in the forum where I first saw the photos. I still do not know who it really is: an angel or maybe it's some kind of character of ancient myths, like Perseus. He was not like Perseus, and I began to call him an angel. Although maybe I'm wrong. If someone suddenly knows who is actually writing, I will be very interested in learning the history of this sculpture.

Hello everybody.
For a long time I could not show anything new. Unfortunately. Now in my life there are big changes and I had to change my place of residence with my family. So far, new circumstances and conditions are very unusual and very different from what I'm used to. Now I do not have the opportunity to go online regularly. Therefore, I immediately want to apologize that I can not respond quickly to comments. Do not be offended, I do not ignore your comments, and I will definitely answer as soon as a good opportunity appears.
Over the years, I was busy with another project. I really liked it, I enjoyed working with this order. But now I will not show what I got after the finish. I will show a small fragment. Maybe someone can find out or guess what kind of figure it is. The only clue from me - this ship knows everything!

That's all!
I tried to talk about my tricks and technologies.
As I said before, I do not have any special and secret techniques. I do not look like a wizard, all my tricks are ordinary and many people know them. I just take the workpiece, the tool and try to get the image I need, which hides inside the workpiece. In the end, I will show a few more photos, there is no point in commenting on them, everything is clear.
 


If suddenly my story about one of my works will help the others, then I will be very happy. If I wrote something incomprehensible and the meaning ran off during the translation, or I did not tell you about a particular reception, then ask your questions. I will try to answer them. All the warmest greetings!

Now it's time to get rid of most of the billet. In the meantime, it is already hampering the work. I separate the sculpture from the workpiece. Still here it is clear that I started working on the helmet and angel hair and over the bag of an angel. You can see how the color of the figure changes. The oil absorbs more deeply into the material and the wood is no longer as dark as recently.

 
Next series of photos. They show that I again covered the sculpture with oil. At this stage of my work, I began working on the folds of the angel's. And as I gradually remove excess material from the wings of the angel.needed. I do not cover the whole figure while working. Only when the work is finished.
 

 
Most likely, several days have passed. Now the wrinkles on the clothes began to appear.

I will continue to write further. Now I'll show you the photos that show that I'm not doing anything special. I just cut the unnecessary parts of the wood.
 


 


Only now the incomprehensible form begins to become clear. And the strange figure of the seal begins to turn into a man
 







At this stage, I have nothing to tell. The secret is simple: you sit at the table, take knives, turn on a movie or your favorite music. A few hours later you suddenly find yourself sitting in the very center of the mountain with wooden shavings and sawdust. And at this moment you feel that for some strange reason you are very tired and the only thing you can do is take a broom and a brush and remove the mountain of garbage. That's the whole secret. 
 

Last time show a finished action figure





 
 

Came the turn of the hind paws

Now crown





cut small parts separately



and the last item




well that's all. in the end I want to open another one of my secret. Photographing process work is also very useful. Often you can see that just not visible. Pictures help to see their mistakes. When working, don't remember how it looked figurine of a week ago. And if you suddenly have to start all over again (this happens), then you can better understand where to make changes and do not make a mistake опять.У photos have another benefit. When it was all over and the thread goes to the customer on the memory remains of those pictures.
 
 

Now is the time to work on a shield with lilies . First I 'll show pictures, and then open another little secret.   So the lion looked at the beginning of work on the shield So after So in fact what happened in the end is not quite what is photographed at the beginning . The shield with lilies actually different. Note that in the first picture , this part is not as convex  as in the end. I did not succeed. I was frustrated. I cut below and try again. Again bad. So shield became quite flat and on it was impossible to fix. What to do? Redo it all over again? This is so offensively . I decided to try to fix everything. But first, another blank tree I began to cut again inside with lilies. I liked it, now you need to carefully move it to the figure.    That's why I made the first shot. And the line is not there by accident and not for beauty. With her help I was able to print this part of the correct scale on cardboard. Then tried to cut the exact shape, and what was inside the wreath. It was laborious, it was necessary to try a lot. Several times had to start anew. And finally, everything worked, I cut out cardboard replica of what I wanted.    I now had a pattern. I have attached it to a new piece with lilies and transferred all nyuansy.Ostalos all neatly cut and paste the new piece into place. So the whole figure was saved.   

continuation    Unfortunately, when there was work on the head of a lion I ran out of batteries in the camera, so more photos with a ready thread head. You can see that part of the excess from the last attempt is cut and inserted into the groove on the blank bar. Now until the end of the thread it will be on it. If you look closely, you can see that the color of the wood has changed a bit , especially on the head figurines This is because of the oil , and which is impregnated with a lion's head . I put a brush oil on the thread. Tung oil is absorbed quickly and makes the tree a little different . Now it is pricked as before and is very convenient for carving even the smallest elements. Now you know a little secret.

Home. 
You can see that for simplicity I glued the paper with the drawing on the workpiece. The first thing to do for landing slot


 
Then I switched on the machine circular saw, so faster



 
The following picture shows that this thread I had a second. The first attempt was a little different, and the customer has not approved it.

 
PS To be continued.
sorry, have to run for job

This is still my last job. I finished it a few days ago. 
Here's a French lion   turned out.





If interested, and in that sense, I can show pictures during operation.
 

covered with oil:


 
after drying oil tinting:




 
Everything. And so it did:
