A close up look at how the wind sculpts the sand dunes here in Death Valley.

Hope you all have a wonderful new week ahead!

Thank you for your support and visit.

This magnificent carved marble sarcophagus at the entrance to the Rolin Museum in Autun dates from the 2nd-3rd century and comes from Arles. It depicts a famous scene from Greek mythology, the Calydonian boar hunt.

Les pierres ont-elles des pouvoirs ?

Nos ancêtres le croyaient, ils les ont taillés, dressés sculptés, gravés.

Do stones have powers?

Our ancestors believed it, they cut it, trained it carved, engraved.

Tympan du 13ème siècle de l'église Saint Yved de Braine.

Après la destruction du massif occidental et des quatre premières travées de la nef de l'église à partir de 1832, une partie du décor sculpté a été recueillie par le musée de Soissons. Le tympan illustrant la Descente aux limbes et l'Enfer (inv. 93.7.2492) était jusqu'alors encastré dans le mur de la tribune de l'orgue, mais il ornait probablement à l'origine un des portails latéraux de la façade occidentale. Le traitement pittoresque de l'Enfer rappelle les scènes de même sujet provenant du jubé de la cathédrale de Bourges, probablement contemporain, mais avec une plus grande intensité dramatique. La procession des damnés et la figure du Christ, en revanche, sont représentées avec plus de rigueur qui annonce les figures du jubé de Notre-Dame de Paris, daté de la deuxième décennie du 14e siècle. Le manque de cohérence entre les deux scènes, formées de blocs découpés et assemblés à une époque récente, peut laisser penser à une autre origine, comme un jubé. Comme l'ensemble du décor sculpté original de l'ancienne église abbatiale Saint-Yved, le tympan se place dans la mouvance stylistique de la cathédrale de Laon, caractéristique de la manière classique des années 1200.

Cette magnifique maison à colombages est située au Stora Norregatan 19 (rue parallèle à Lilla Norregatan), à l'intersection avec Sladdergatan à Ystad en Suède.

Datant de 1630, elle présente effectivement un décor de bois sculpté exceptionnel.

Ystad est une petite ville portuaire à l'extrémité sud de la Suède. Elle située en Scanie, au bord de la mer Baltique, à environ 60 km de Malmö et 80 km de Copenhague (Danemark). Ystad fait partie des plus vieilles villes de Scanie, son histoire remontant aux 12e-13e siècles, à l'époque où la région était danoise. La ville prospéra grâce au commerce du hareng, en particulier avec l'Allemagne et la ligue hanséatique, et eut rapidement une église et un cloître franciscain. Du 17e siècle au milieu du 19e siècle, Ystad grâce à son port fut la fenêtre de la Suède sur l'Europe où arrivaient idées nouvelles et innovations. Le port est désormais un terminal de ferries pour l'île danoise de Bornholm et la Pologne.

Aujourd’hui, son lacis de rues pavées et ses maisons à colombages confèrent à Ystad un séduisant cachet médiéval, plus encore la nuit, lorsque résonne le lur du veilleur installé dans le clocher de l'église Sankta Maria. Le veilleur souffle dans son lur (sorte de cor) toutes les 15 min, de 21h15 à 3h. Cette tradition remonte au 18e siècle et visait à l'époque de rassurer la population en la prévenant de l'absence de danger incendiaire fréquent dans une ville aux toits de chaume.

Several of these indented welded areas featured every few feet on a metal boat sitting on a dock in Steveston Harbour. Each seemed to function as a work of art in their own rite.

Captured during a very enjoyable evening with fellow photographers Sean Lewis, Alan Frost and Gerry Gavigan and I have to say that the dunes were a fair challenge. For me it did't really come together until the last rays of sunlight began to work their magic sculpting the subtle ripples and texture in the sand. I'd like to have stayed a little longer but there was real danger that my car would end up the wrong side of a padlocked gate. I made it with seconds to spare.

Thoughts? Not very fond of it but it's a prototype.

Another side project in between commissions. The sculpting was finished a few weeks ago, but I finally got around to painting it.

I never liked LEGO's scout trooper helmet, the proportions and positioning of parts were all wrong. I was originally going to make this a decaled figure, but decided to sculpt it all the way. Knowing that walking around in Endor's mud is no clean task, I dirtied the boots and weathered the gun to make him look like he's seen a speeder chase or two.

The speeder is based off of BrickDoctor's speeder from ages ago, modified for my own interpretation. I figured if I was going to make a nice scene with this guy, it just wouldn't be complete without the speeder.

I'll post a video review after I post Rey's soon. So as always, expect more, and I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Batman cowl sculpt using a ski mask(thanks to alex for sending me one). This cowl will be for my update Ben Affleck Batman. Posted this because I wanted to hear comments/criticism, so please drop a comment!

Sculpting has been around for millennia, and it's goals were/are to beautify, decorate, idolize, and make others happy. One of the oldest sculptures discovered is an ivory statuette, dating approximately 30,000 BCE from a cave at Hohlenstein-Stadel in Germany. Called "Löwenmensch" (Lion-man), it is about 12” tall and depicts a human figure with a feline face.

This sculpture is "Woodcutters Cottage" by David Winter, 1984 - Hand made and hand painted in the Studios & Workshops of John Hine Ltd, Hendon Road, Bordon, Hants, Great Britain.

Well, I'll go ahead and say I loved doing this. Halo used to be one of my favorite franchises, and making a Spartan using this sculpt made my day. I got it from Josiah,aka Brickzalive, I belive Pecovam made it. First off huge thanks to Billy, KJ, and Josiah. They all helped me with making this at BFAL. I painted the Fig using Apple Barrel and Citadel paints. The shotgun is a painted BA. KJ taught me many good ways to weather weapons, so a huge thanks to him.
