“I have looked high and
low for useful information and techniques related to my
field of Sculpture in the Entertainment Industry. So I
was thrilled when I came across John Brown's Gnomon Workshop Sculpture
series. He provides clear,
practical and efficient lessons learned from his many years
of experience. John teaches a process from scratch that will benefit everyone
from novice to professional and will be helpful to an artist
even beyond
sculpture. Excellent!”

This lecture introduces the
student to sculpting the full-scale head with an emphasis on
detail. Beginning with a 1/3 scale concept maquette, this DVD
teaches how to scale up off of a design and build a full scale
sculpture from scratch. Sculpting of the facial features is
emphasized, with a focus on secondary & tertiary form,
including step-by-step techniques used to create wrinkles,
skin texture, pores, veins - all the essential components of
sculpting realism. The lecture also addresses the important
considerations when sculpting for digitization. Every phase
of sculpting the head is demonstrated including armature construction,
initial block-in, facial features, ears, horns and surface
details.
