Update on the new war memorial.
29 December, 2020 – 10:28 amI have managed to spend a couple of days working on the 1st world war soldier but as you can imagine it was quite busy at Taurus Crafts. I am looking forward to getting back on with the carving in January.
I have put some short videos on my YouTube channel it shows some of the methods and chisels that I have been using. At this stage there isn’t any detailed work going on as I am roughing out the outlines to make sure that I have enough stone to create the right levels and detail.
I sculpted a portrait of George Hyett in clay from a photo taken over 100 years ago and I am using a photo of a 1st world war soldier to make sure I have all the details right.
