Ach, Markus Bühler? Ich hätte es gleich an dem Nicknamen erkennen müssen.
Tolle Skulpturen, die meisten hab ich ja noch gar nicht auf dem Blog gesehen!

Thanks for the faves. BTW, I'm somewhat curious about your background, as I think we talked before about my "Leviathan" painting when it was posted on Flickr. Do you work in a museum and help prepare the exhibits, or are you just a hobbyist and student of anatomy, like me?

Much like you, I also like cephalapods, and was wondering if you've seen the recently released footage of a living giant squid that aired on the Discover Channel @ 3 week ago? Utterly fascinating to see one like that, at long last, and come to realize that almost all of the models, paintings and CGI versions of them have gotten it completely wrong on the shape/look of the eyes. Granted that they are HUGE eyes, as big around as a dinner plate, but the actual opening for them is much more oval and elongated, like a slit, and not a wide circle to match the shape of the eyeball; much more like the oval eye slits on a Humboldt squid (I'm also so guessing that the same is true for the colossal squid; their eyes might be 11 inches in diameter, but the opening they peer through might not be a perfect circle).

I use often a combination of wire and tinfoil wrapped around the wire, because this saves sculpey and weight as well. One important thing is also to use twisted wire, which is much more rigid, and sculpting masses attach much better on it. In the past I made some errors on my early models like sculpting without internal wire skeleton, but now this seems nearly in all cases really essential, and is a huge help.

Thank you for the watch, and welcome to dA! What amazing sculptures you make, may I ask how you make the 'centre' rigid enough for it to stand on just one wire?
