All the failures and problems with resin casting can be really discouraging, but its so satisfying to see you finally get it dialed in and have everything work exactly according to plan for the resin and wood. I love when expertise and planning turn into pain-free process. That curly maple is excellent. Beautiful sculpture, flawless execution. Great job.

imho this is probably your most beautiful work up to now. it looks amazing, the details, the sparkling, and the root as a stand leviates this to another level

Any and all "would you just look at it" clips are highly appreciated. Also the wonderful craftsmanship but also edbassmaster

This has to be one of my favorites so far. The metal fleck, the colors you choose for your laminates and the fins! The sum is greater than the parts. It is incredible.

Even if this wasn’t for me it would easily be my favorite of your sculptures to date! Absolutely stunning! Thank you so very much!

The change in jaw actually made it look better because of where the wood pops out with a deeper jaw curve. Those thin fins were nerve-wracking with how easy they could be damaged with a mistake but you managed 😂. The lovely base of wood really made the piece stand out, I was considering how you’d mount it as it’s such a unique shape.

There are people who never cease to amaze with their art and leave behind thousands of people who enjoy seeing the beauty created by their hands. And that's amazing. You're one of them, Blake. I really hope millions of people discover your channel and look forward to your every video as much as I do.

Blake these things just keep getting more beautiful. Absolutely gorgeous. Side note - I really appreciate that you show your learning curve. Seeing that people producing incredible work like this are also still learning and making mistakes is very encouraging.

Absolutely beautiful. That metallic sparkle was spot on. Another great project in the books

You had me memorized from start to finish, and the final reveal took my breath away. The maple reflected in the convex top half of the body is so perfect, brilliant choice. This is such a stunning piece of art

Perfect.I am from Iran. I have a wood and resin workshop like yours, but for some time I had a mental problem and closed the workshop, but after watching your clip, my passion for wood and resin revived, thank you bro

Woah! I'm so proud of your hard work and will always thank you for sharing your talent with us all! Beautiful job! I really hope whomever requested this beautiful piece enjoys it and shares it with any and everyone who visits them!

Looks incredible as always. I love that you try to get the little bits of detail in there too. I think the glitter works well for this fish but I hope you don't use it too often as one of the things I really admire about your sculptures is how clear they are. There's something almost magical about seeing a beautifully sculpted animal and yet you can see right through it to the wood. However, for this fish it really works and adds the water effect.

Female trout do not have a kype. Two to four weeks before spawning, male trout undergo physical changes that include developing a kype. Farm raised trout are harvested before they can develop a kype. I still like your sculpture even though the mouth is undersized for a fish that has a kype. Kype😀

The finished rainbow trout took my breath away. Absolutely gorgeous, thank you for sharing the process.

This is probably my favorite sculpture I have seen you make. The choice of wood was fantastic! Very well done!

Wow, how awesome is this! The detail is amazing and that metallic sparkle really sets it all off. Great job.

Oh my word......that is just absolutely amazing! The glitter you used gives it that perfect shimmery touch! Indeed that is a beautiful statue of a rainbow trout!

your work with epoxy gets better and better every single sculpture! This trout looks amazing, what stunning natural wood colors combined with an untouched, wild piece of wood for the backdrop. You did amazing, can't wait to see what you do next.

This is absolutely magnificent! So far it's my favorite piece! But I don't know how you can make anything more beautiful than the pieces I've already seen. Your work leaves me mesmerized every time!💥❤

Not the biggest fan of fish…but that is a beautiful piece of art! Well done! Always admire your attitude when approaching new things!

Definitely the best I have seen so far, and so far I think they have all been brilliant. I love the wave action on curly maple. I try to use it any time I can on my wood working projects. Awesome. Still waiting for the giraffe.

Absolutely stunning! I am blown away. The effect of that curly maple cannot possibly be more perfect. It looks like the water from above reflecting light in ripples on the body of the fish. This is possibly the coolest thing I've seen on KZfaq. I was raised by a fly-fisher, on the banks of the Salmon River and this sculpture brought my soul so much joy. Thank you for sharing!

You're a genius. Using water to test for leaks, using a winch to lift the thing... there's SO MANY resin workers and hobbyists that need to learn your lessons.

I adore the colours of the woods used, and knowing that the resin will keep those brilliant natural colours from fading is wonderful.

I think the “tiger stripes” effect is called chatoyance. Learned it from Damascus knife makers. Looks beautiful man! Awesome work!👊🏼

I think this is your best work so far. The top layer of wood used was perfect and this is probably the best combination of wood and epoxy in terms of incorporating the two you've done so far.

Just found your channel today. I’d say your artwork is right at the best I’ve ever seen on KZfaq! The potential for screwing up days of work would be terrifying to me and makes the finished product that much more impressive! Thanks for sharing it!

a 20 minute video really deserves to show off more of this beautiful finished product!

Your sculpture is an impressive display of talent and skill. I can tell you put a lot of heart into it 👍

I appreciate your honesty, saying that you took longer seeing that you’re learning and making mistakes. Great insight.

Stunning and amazing, looking forward to seeing more of your work.

make a sea horse

Thats my favourite Project by fair, absolutely INCREDABLE !

All YOUR video is very interesting and all YOUR skulptūros is absolute DIVINITY!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍 You natural master "POSH HANDS!!!

Your videos it's like meditation for me! Interesting not only result but whole process!

Dude, you have absolutely outdone yourself! The precision of the laminated wood suspended inside another work of art was amazing. Maybe not quite like rainbow sherbet, but possibly Neapolitan ice cream 😂

Hello, I am a 72 year old retired engineer, so I am very satisfied (almost ecstatic) to totally ignore ‘Brilliant’.

I enjoy how you took advantage of the optical properties of the epoxy combines with the maple flaming. Sooooo beautiful!

I'm speechless. I love every single sculpture you amazingly made, Mate. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Awesome work. Just interested, it weighed 87 pounds before carving. What did it end up weighing after carving? My guess is around 30 lbs.

The trout looks amazing, the veneer sets it off ! I would love to see you carve a manta ray using the same concept with the veneer as the wings of the ray.

Que bella obra de arte !!!! Que gran artista eres, estos videos son tan relajantes.✨

This puts 99% of “modern art” to shame

Wow. Just wow. I grew up in the Pacific Northwest, and I can smell the water and feel the breeze moving over the live fish this represents. Lovely

I hope whoever commissioned this displays it proudly and keeps it safe for many future generations to enjoy.

My God that's amazingly beautiful!! First time "catching" a video of yours as well!!

Wow. God bless your brother. His help made a total difference

Wow! Well done! The reveal at the end was so fun! Such a fun concept making the rainbow out of layered wood. Nice job on the form too, that looked solid!

Wow, your work is terrific! Thank you for share it...

A pure work of art! Astounding workmanship. I loved the polar bear and now this! You did good.

This is absolutely amazing, I would love to have piece like this one day!

Mesmerized by your vision, skill. Simply amazing dude. So well done!

I'm new to your videos, but obviously have seen your work all over the internet! I'm blown away by your talents!!! Absolutely amazing!!

Everytime I look at another of your sculptures it becomes my new favorite. Beautiful and amazing

I honestly have no idea how I got here and I should absolutely be getting to sleep, but dang! The talent some people posess is amazing to me. 😮😊

Outstanding. I love rainbow trout. And you are so modest. A sign of a great artist. I'm sure your client will be more than happy. Thank you so much for sharing your process. 🎨❤

This is beautiful and amazing job. I love fishing and woodworking. I worked with wood for a long time and my stepfather was a construction worker he owned his own business. He paid me to carve wood and tile. He was very proud of me. Him and my mom passed away two years apart. Mom passed away from cancer in 2015 and my stepfather passed away from heart disease two years after. I have great memories of him. He was a great father even my birth father liked him. He appreciated that he was a good father figure for his daughter. I am handicapped so I have always needed assistance. I was given opportunities in school to learn woodworking and metal because of my disability. I kept working with both until I graduated college. I earned a master's degree in advanced science and engineering I took woodworking classes in the first semester and metal shop as well auto shop. I was the only female in my auto shop and I encouraged other ladies to join the next semester so there were five more the next semester. We built a wooden car with working parts and it ran on cheap gasoline. It wasn't legal so we weren't allowed to drive it on the street. Our professor built us a track on the campus. Other students came out for lunch and watched us drive the wooden car. It was a beautiful dark brown with red oak body and white cider side panels. I made the blueprints for it while the others got everything ready and we worked together to make it and we fixed a few flaws before starting it. It was fun. ❤

Beautiful work of art. Didn't think the final product would look so good.

These sculptures never get old!

When you make a mistake with your creations you most definitely bounce back and make it amazing.

How he keeps on outdoing himself with every sculpture is just amazing ❤

this carve is stunning, thank goodness for your brother adding his P.O.V adding the beak. Glad to see you using a winch to take the mould out of the freezer, in a previous video watching you picking up and out made my bad back scream at you, glad you were listening to that too. this carve has got to be one of my favourites too, now im just hungry. great job

Absolutely stunning work

I love how the anatomical accuracy of the wild Rainbow Trout was JUST enough to catch a piece of the wood within. Don’t even know where to begin with the compliments. Most people forget that you are not just a sculptor, but a filmmaker too! Camera and editing is great too. Keep it up! 😃👍

Incredible art - labour of love - beautiful - thank you for sharing!

Wow that is AMAZING!! 👏!! Great job. I’m so happy I got to this this!! It was so very encouraging and you have such great talent!! Can’t wait to see more!!

The sparkling really made this sculpture into something else. Looks very realistic because of it.

Beautifully done. A masterpiece made to be appreciated in all its details. Stunning sculpture.

man that was rad. i love watching all the new tools youve picked up over the years

Absolutely phenomenal craftmanship. I really like how you mounted it too.

Um verdadeiro Artista ❤

That is so beautiful. The flake is perfect.

Beautiful work, it looks like glass. But who just wants a sculpture of a fish?. 🐟

The devils always in the details. I really enjoy watching you carve. It's something that I have given a half-hearted try before with a small amount of success but you my brother make masterpieces.

That turned out amazing!!! But then again, most of your projects are!!! Thaqnks for sharing your amazing talent with us

Amazing work!!!! I'm speechless...

Wow your brother was on point with his tip about the mouth shape of wild caught trout. That mouth really makes this sculpture I think. That and the shimmering effect of the top piece of the laminate. Stunning piece. Well done!

Feels so nice to watch your videos. The attitude the music the techniques not the mention the master craftsmanship. It is just amazing.

Absolutely beautiful!!

Stunningly beautiful trout and the stand is so organic too, well done to you (and your brother).

That is absolutely amazing. Wow

O trabalho desse homem é simplesmente BRILHANTE!!! Eu amei!! Um artista. Maravilhosooooo... eu queria ganhar uma escultura dele. 😢

Clovis? Wow awesome to see someone actually local doing good on KZfaq.

Absolutely phenomenal - beautiful detail! Truly a work of art!

This is my favourite of all your works. Well done 🥰

Wonderful! You are be an Artist! Greetings from Germany!

Great Job! As a fellow carver (chainsaw carver that is), I sure can appreciate that someone else is putting in the time to perfect their projects. You have also inspired me to try to chainsaw carve epoxy. Watching the chainsaw work on your videos has giving me some good ideas. Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing!

Blake that is the most beautiful sculpture of yours I've seen. My previous favourite was the torso one but this has it beat

Those slabs you cut off with the chainsaw might make some small projects. 😃 Trout came out awesome. I recently retired and am getting back into my art. Drawing, wood carving.

Absolutely beautiful 😊

Wow thats beautiful!! Your client is so lucky❤

Yellow heart board was amazing. great job

Very talented man. I wouldn’t know where to start much less finish

That spoon is beautiful

Aamzing...wish I had a fraction of your talent. Keep up the great work.

You have me hooked, got to watch all your video's I can find now. Such talent !!!!

Fantastic work! Great vision for the end result, it turned out incredible!

Mind blowing artistry 😊🙏thank you ❤
