Buffalo, Bull or Horse!!!????

I think the bull fits better for an "not natural pattern" than a buffalo

What an incerdible result! That Swan has such a calm and graceful spirit to it.

This sculpture is phenomenal. I know you did a bison of tires and a horse head of wood and epoxy, but I would love to see a full-size HORSE! That Buckeye burl makes the most spectacular art pieces ❤

Absolutely world class. No one even comes close.

Hey Blake, with that pattern I would choose the horse. The bull or buffalo would require a more “aggressive” pattern…I think. If I could I would have living room full of your sculptures. Very nice work! Thanks. Steve.

This swan turned out very beautiful and elegant. Another masterpiece to your catalogue! I think the horse or buffalo for that pattern but leaning more towards horse because of how dainty the pattern is and seems more appropriate for an animal of similar nature. Cheers!

I think a sea turtle would be cool. The turtle shell has a design to them that could be made using or gluing different wood grains together I think. Making even one of those huge old tortoises would be cool as well. 🐢

Definitely got to go for the horse Blake! An elegant animal for an elegant piece of wood.

The wood choice for the beak was really nice. Beautiful piece overall. I think the endgrain pattern works best on the bull.

Turning Scrap Wood Into $12,000... after having spend several thousand on tools, equipment, my time, shop space, miscellaneous safety equipment. I made a whole $473.00 on this project after all was said and done. Not too shabby if I do say so myself.

Can I just take a few minutes here to say how proud I am of you Blake? I mean, literally what 2 years ago if even that, you were a new KZfaqr making tire sculptures and custom patio furniture without a clue on what the viewers like in terms of editing. And now of days you have found your style of not only videos but art. You continue your occasional tire sculptures which I’m all for, however the epoxy/wood sculptures are amazing, unique, and take an unbelievably amount of time and talent and skill. It’s YOUR style Blake it belongs to YOU. I would love to see you try dyed epoxy next!! Like a tortoise with a wooden shell and green epoxy limbs or something like that! I really enjoy your editing style, a good amount of commentary, explanations, and also background music with time lapses, close ups, the whole 9 yards of professional KZfaq videos. Absolutely killing it man, I’m very proud that you’ve found your style in both video creating/ editing, and art. The cutting boards are stunning too man! So unique and mesmerizing. As for the animal of choice… imma say buffalo. I think it’s the most challenging. You’ve done a bull already with the tires, idk that you’ve done a horse but it seems basic, however a buffalo with lots of fur would be a real good challenge with an amazing result. Can’t wait man! Till next time !

I love the way you just 'take it for granted' that your resin will come out crystal clear with no bubbles. Such skill!

This turned out beautiful. I really love that you did the eyes and beak in wood!

The SWAN was perfect! But you put so much heart into your work, how could it not be perfect. Keep up the great work. Adorable children by the way. God Bless! Horse would be my choice also.

Bull. Great vid. Swan is amazing. Your sculptures are beautiful. Thx for sharing.

Gorgeous work as always. It's amazing how much the little details matter. I think the wooden eye makes a huge difference. I"m always amazed at the precision and quality of your work. Well done!

I wish, I had all your sculptures in one big room with light 💡 to watch all time.

The swan is wonderful and it looks so realistic I just can’t even believe your doing this. I love it❤

Absolutely beautiful work as always! I gotta say, specifically a long horn bull! That would be an awesome challenge to tackle!

I think your sculptures are amazing, if you were to use the design you showed I think a horse would be so stunning. Because of the design in the wood, and then the shapes, that would be highlighted in the muscular structures of the horse.

Blake. I think this is the most beautiful sculpture yet. You do amazing work.

Stunning absolutely stunning!!!

Wow. Beautiful piece. It’s so graceful and flowing. I love the long neck, you’d never know it was cast separately. I’d love to see a full horse sculpture.

*WOW.... that swan is amazing.... I guess packing it and shipping it cost the new owner a fortune too. I hope they are really appreciating what went into making this statue. 🙂.*

The sculpture stands as a testament to the sheer brilliance and artistic mastery of its creator. Every chisel mark seems to breathe life into the wood, rendering it a sublime work of art that transcends the boundaries of the medium. It is a masterpiece that not only celebrates your profound talents Blake ,but also enriches the world of art with its captivating presence. Keep it up mate.

Stunning! Honestly it’s difficult to describe how beautiful this is. You must feel so proud and satisfied with your pieces when they are completed. I’d love to see a full sized horse. ❤

Loved it! I vote for Buffalo 🦬

Hi Blake! Are you freaking kidding me! This is amazing. The neck is so so stunning. It’s seamless. It looks like one pour. Genius! Thank you Blake

Another beautiful work of art. I love how you take an otherwise discarded mass of wood and turn it into a one of a kind masterpiece, revealing the natural beauty of it.

Great swan sculpture! Looks lovely. I'd really love to see a horse next time!

My vote is the Buffalo.

Never, I'm never disappointed with your work. Thankfully, your baseball career afforded you the financial opportunity to pursue your other passion of mixed mediums into truly artistic works. They're all beautiful. My vote on your next piece. Buffalo 🦬 Americana, strength, resilience. I'm already looking forward to your next endeavor. Keep those kids working!

Superlatively lovely swan sculpture...graceful, almost ethereal.....marvelous work!

Gorgeous Swan!

The visible seam in the neck is such a bummer. Great job on the rest though!

Choose the BULL.

Stunning swan! I always enjoy watching your sculptures come to life, they are amazing. I vote for a HORSE!

Always getting excited when a new video is uploaded. Another fantastic piece Blake, amazing work! 👍

"Hello, Mr. Blake. How much you pay for the new guys?...NO NO, too much"

bull

Perfect job.. glad to see you back @ it brother...GOD BLESS YOU & YOUR FAMILY

❤❤❤Wow magnificent piece of art! The Swan is just majestic. Love your videos find them so relaxing to watch. Thank you for sharing! A horse would be amazing.

You could turn those tiny off-cuts into coasters too. People LOVE their handmade coasters.. heck, I would love some from you!❤❤❤

Perfect!

I had to double-check to make sure this post was recent because I had memories of the last swan build in my head. 😂 I think the horse would be nice…and amazing finished product! 👍🏾

So beautiful!!!

Absolutely gorgeous!!!

Well done Blake.

Absolutely gorgeous! Just insane talent. Everything is so beautifully done. I don’t know if you’re just a natural with this art but you sure make it look as if you are. Thank you for posting.

I think the horse would look fantastic in the end grain block carving. Great job this project!

Been waiting on on to post a new video, you do amazing work, thank you for sharing !!!

Your swan is so beautifully done, I'm sure the new owner will be pleased. As far as your next project.... make all 3 in a series. ❤🎉

Absolutely magnificent. I like it more than your other swan for sure. What a Masterpiece

The bull for sure! Looks like it will be awesome inside the design you are looking at.

Amazing! Watching you bring the different ingredients together and shaping them into such beautiful art is nothing short of amazing.

Blake you're always a joy to watch! Your talent and dedication to your work and love towards your family is why you're able to create such marvelous works. I do think this swan was far better than your first one! Wonderful job 🙌🏾🌻

Absolutely incredible work!!!!

When you were showing the options, I thought the horse was the best because of the colors and design that you’re going to use on the sculpture and you’re amazing at what you do❤🎉😊.

Awesome!!!!

Just amazing!

It's unbelievably amazing!

would love to see you do the horse, great work on the swan love the colours of the wood coming through

So Amazing! WoW! In another video you asked for sculpture suggestions. I have a few... 1. A boat on the rough seas 2. A bear standing upright on a rock 3. A Fern 4. An Octopus 5. A Waterscape 6. Platonic Solids of beautiful wood suspended in the resin 7. A school of fish under the surface of waving water Your work is so beautiful! ❤

What an amazing piece!

Absolutely beautiful! Bravo sir, bravo.

That sculpture is gorgeous.. The horse would look good in that pattern.

I love seeing your process os much, these sorts of videos are some of my favourites to watch, it's so nice to see your process for these amazing sculptures. I'd love to see a bull in your style for the patterned wood.
