Join master sculptor Josh Guge for this 3 day seminar on making bird feet! These demonstration videos were made during a class he taught at his studio in Elgin. The seminar includes 34 demonstration videos ranging from 5 to 25 minutes in length. The videos are loaded with important information you need to learn how to use brass, and epoxy to create the birds legs and toes. He also discuses positioning and mounting the bird to the legs and mounting the bird to a branch.
Josh covers every detail in the process including: preliminary sketching on paper, in depth lesson on the (anisodactyl) style of songbird feet. soldering the legs to a brass branch, making a brass armature for legs and toes, shaping the nails, using (fix- it epoxy) to create shape and form, carving the epoxy after it is dry, creating all minute details, and attaching the toes to the legs and mounting the bird. He also shares all the anatomy knowledge needed to make realistic feet.
(This is not a painting class!)
Josh is known for simplifying this complex process and helping students of all skill levels reach their personal goals.
