Thank you Iron Wolf . Ive gotta first finish a horse and then a human sprinter but after that I accept your challenge , Time will tell . cheers mate!!!

Thank you Old South . I also think its the best Ive done so far. So I better get off my butt and make something better!! lol

Spanky I don't know about jewellery . I use penetrol straight over rust or clean metal Steel /iron . I used to use "fishoil" but penetrol seems to last longer in the weather .

Thank you Charlotte and phabib for those kind words . We all do the best we can given time , money & recourses . I also am guilty of looking and learning (yes it is stealing) at other artists ideas . this is not too big a crime as it drives achievement upwards . Don't rest on your laurels you wont be at the top too long before someone nocks you off!

Thank you Daswulf and Stan !

Thank you everyone!!!!!! Ausfire : This time I used "Penetrol" and applied it BEFORE I allowed the metal to go rusty. Daswulf: Think of your sculpture as comprising 100 small sculptures. FOCUS only on the(small) sculpture you are working on . So to build a set of hands you need fingers and each finger needs 3 joints and the end of each of the last joint of each finger has a different size nail which must be separately made. Don't save any of your "good"bits of scrap for another sculpture. make each of your small sculptures the best you can using your best bits THEN when you assemble all your small sculptures into....... one experiment with different poses. something will jump out at you when you do this and it will be something you did not consider . Try this method you will be amazed at the result!

Thank you Ausfire and Charlotte . The location and details are confidential it gone to a private collector.

Thank you everyone for those words of encouragement. Live every day like its your last!

Thank you Spanky . I would love to learn how to use a forge but I just cant find the time. I still have to show you guys the 3 year old girl on the floor!

Thanks everyone for the compliments . Dave and Alan These jokes must stop its just not punny anymore !

here is a few teasers for a sculpture I just delivered yesterday. details of buyer and location are confidential. I will post more pics in the coming weeks

ewe guys just don't no wether the grass is greener or the wool is being pulled over you eyes. Lamb chops are a lovely alternative to mutton about this stuff,. Peace doods!

No Thomas , I like the rust and if its not in a coastal area there Is no maintenance and the steel is thick enough to last 100 years after my passing. matter of personal choice.

Thank you Bush Bugger and Ausfire . Good luck with the miner that subject gives you lots to work with (strength , musculature , fatigue . weather beaten face . movement & effort ) it will be a winnwr . please post progress.

No worries, you are most welcome to visit and stay overnight if you choose .Just bring Beer!

Sure you can have it Stephen ! yours for a meagre $25,000 AUD cheers mate

Thank you Andy

Thank you Ciron. glad u like!

I estimate it would weigh about 750 lb . It does separate into 14 separate pieces so that I can install it any where . All pieces will fit through a standard house doorway!

Thank you Old South!

Hi Thors Hammer 82 here is one I built in 2009 . I hope it is of some help to you. Cheers

Yes Darryl ,the site was doing that to me for a while , I found that if I logged in again I was able to post. The eyes are teeth off a road stabilising machine when I worked for local government on the roads I would ask the operator for the worn out bits Ive now got about 500 of the little fellas and yes a very versatile scrap item. cheers andrew

Thank you John!
