I am sad to see such a beautiful piece of art going into such a vulgar movie! Lol I almost thought this was the sculpture from Gladiator that they come upon outside the Colosseum.
Beautiful work, and thank you for sharing.

This is based on the Prima Porta Augustus [link] now housed in the Vatican Museums. The statue you are thinking of from Gladiator is of Marcus Aurelius, a copy of which stands in the middle of Michelangelo's Campidoglio in Rome while the original (thought to be Constantine and thus spared from being melted down) sits inside the Capitoline Museum.

It is after a Ceasar sculpture. the ones on top of the Ceasar's palace are all inspired from it. I just copied them. Dont write the movies, just get paid for sculpting.

Is this you have done a statue carved from hard materials ?
so much detail in a sculpture made of clay would like waxy, I guess you did not use mud are great.

This is actually a material called poly urathane foam. It is a soft carving material.

This was done for a Movie called "The Hangover". I don't have it for sell. If you would like me to resculpt this, it is 10 feet tall. I used 4 pound polyurathne foam. The foam alone cost $3000. To mold it , another $4000, my time $ 5000. Lets just say it can get expensive. Smaller sculptures can be done for less. thank you for asking.

No i don't know how much. You can check with foundry's around the U.S. and see. I am sure they would give you an estimate on the cost. Nice work!

The only word that fits is: Perfect!
Can you tell us which film to look for him in?
Although I'd never be able to do something like this, I'd love a link to where you buy this foam.
Do you use regular woodworking tools?
