CurlyGeorge Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 NICE!! Great job, Beth. I too would be interested in how you did it. Thanks for sharing the picture. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marksnagel Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Hey Beth, Great casting! It appears that Mr Fox is not as sly as Mr Bird. Best place to hide is in plain sight. Mark <>< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beth Posted July 4, 2011 Author Share Posted July 4, 2011 yes mark - it would appear they are friends ! jk - no i did not take a class, unless you count my degree which was in sculpture about 15 years ago! we did some casting then, but i have done none since kids bla bla bla you know my story no the foundry did this one, i made him out of clay, they cast and finished him. i DO need to sell him though! i actually have a little gas fired crucible thingy in my workshop which has led under the table for ages, which i got from a school which i keep meaning to try - i need to change the nozzle for different gas, but its nearly new. i have also heaps of stuff i could melt. .. that would be fun eh?

Bentiron1946 Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Nice fox! How big is that exactly? Looks to be good sized compared to the dogs in the background but who really knows, could only be a foot long. I do like to see a garden. When I lived in town, and had flood irrigation, I had a garden and do so miss having green growing things like flowers, grass, don't miss the mowing, fruit tree and my veggies.

kustomsteel Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Nice sculpture Beth! I have to admit the form caught my eye first and then i had to check for seams (i was a finisher in a bronze foundry), the chasing looked great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
