Polysculpting


Here's a selection of other polycarving work. The above Totem was created for a kid's adventure park. It was deemed a bit too disturbing.

These arches were created for a shopping centre christmas display. This is what it looked like before it had been dressed with christmas by the dressers.

We also created a small street of christmas houses for another shopping centre that was populated by singing gnomes.

National Geographic


Three of us spent 3 days polycarving this tail of a Blue Whale. It was to be placed in The Serpentine in Hyde Park as an April fools prank & to promote National Geographics new season of Whale related programmes.

The completed sculpture was covered in tin foil, which took a day, to act as a barrier between the polystyrene & fibreglass that would go on top.

Once the fibreglassing was done it was cleaned up, artworked & placed in the lake.

QBE Giant Rugby Ball


I was part of a small team that created a 4 meter tall rugby ball to promote QBE sponsoring the new season.


CNC sections were cut from polystyrene & were assembled together & tidied up. Once completed this was hardcoated & finished.

The ball was then masked up & painted to match the reference ball we had. The idea was to make it look like it had impacted into the pavement so mdf "slabs" were cut & painted to match the location where the ball would be installed. With vinyl logos added the ball was placed on site.
24 hrs later, having served it's purpose, we came back & took it down.
