That's it for now. Thoughts? Been doing this for 3-4 years. Just finished my freshman year of college

While i think all those look very well made, they lack any kind of creativity. Wich is very optional of course, as all these things are for every day use. But they also appear bulky/chunky. Something many potters seem to do.
I'd prefer something more delicate.

>>2552787
the thing for holding the cup and the big finger rest thingy- I like them, the idea itself, the execution is the one which is lacking in my opinion. I think it would have been better to make them out of one peace, for that ''brush economy'' if I may use drawing term
>>2552782
I like them, very simple, good proportions
>>2552780
seem like the work of a professional
>>2552779
is this the same thing as above? I don't like how tall it is, what I like instead is the way the cover is meant to seal, sitting on the ring on the inside of the jar (?). I assume when the cover is put, it continues the silhouette of the jar
>>2552778
I don't like any of those, maybe the one staying flat
>>2552777
I like the one on the right, also witnessed

>I am not a potter, just telling you my taste

Anyone have a good book for learning Figurative Sculpting?

I think there's some poop left right at the hole.

>>2555346
holy fucc

>>2555650
why is she wearing a grape wig

>>2555317
make the petals individually and then stick them on it.
so far it looks like you just carved it out of one mass of clay, which is odd because clay petals are pretty straight-forward to make and will give it far more depth.

>>2555688
They were suppose to have been glazed green to reseemble foliage but idk I like grapes

>>2555886
Self portrait ?

>>2555886
pretty cool. let see a frontal pic

I'm just about to start the figure sculpting hobby. Hardest fucking part is finding what materials and stuff I need to make armatures for busts and bodies. Fuck's sake.

>>2555317
you should send your portfolio to bad dragon

>>2555886
do you make out with it during the process?

>>2555886

>>2558273
I tried doing some quick design on this one but it didn't come out that well. I still like it though

>>2558251
youre too poor to afford more materials?

>>2558251

How do I make a weed smoking pipe with this material? Is it possible? Hard?

>>2558769
It's easy but thin ceramics are brittle, far more than glass.

When I smoked weed I'd just make a very primitive pipe and dry it out and use that a few times until it broke and make another rather than trying to transport a pipe around with me.

>>2555886

Woah what a cutie, got more pics? ref?

Just started getting into sculpting, and was wondering what are the different types of exercises and books I should get into so that I could progress properly.

>>2560698
also only have oil based clay to work with at the moment, should I get other materials?

>>2558769
It's easy is u can fire and glaze because unfired clay might contain harmful elements it'll make it tough and more of a smoking pleasure, look I made a bong disguised as a mushroom

>>2552117
Is there any site i can see your work at?

>>2561793
No , I do post on Instagram sometimes
