Wow!
I've always been following your tuts in the sculpting section and its good to hear you finally have a dvd coming out.
I've never sculpted....but who is to say I won't be able to do it with practice, right?
I think I'm going to pick up this bad boy.
Btw, how long is it? From start to finish, including the two mini lessons?

This one is really well done folks....Petey shares a ton of his secrets...and it will help even 3d artists looking to understand sculpture principles as well. The same stuff applies to 2d creature design as well. Great stuff....

The Member who created this title currently has it on hold

I saw this on the website, what does that mean?

It means that this statement

is probably true (emphasis mine).

**MassiveDVD** · March 8th, 2007, 02:20 PM

i.was.ink: It's 2 hours 11 minutes long in total. It has everything in there to get you up and running. The only thing missing is the painting portion which deserves it's own DVD. (coming soon)

Qitsune: We're just waiting on the final proofs from our distributor. Once we have those we'll release it.

Regards,
MassiveDVD

this one looks cool, but i'm no sculptor.

i'd love to see a digital painting dvd by noxizmad.
anyone else?

**A.Cerasoli** · March 8th, 2007, 09:12 PM

Nice! I am definitely going to buy this one. I had one scuplture class about three years ago but didn't really learn much. After I get this DVD that will most likely change.

**MassiveDVD** · March 14th, 2007, 07:17 PM

The DVD is officially for sale. Come and get 'em!

I just watched the DVD proof, wow that was inspiring!

I've only made 1 sculpture in my life, it was a college project. Now I totally wanna get a brick of Sculpey and try something new! Seriously, I'm all giddy inside, I can't wait for the weekend!

**A.Cerasoli** · March 14th, 2007, 10:15 PM

Just ordered it!

**Hive_minD** · March 15th, 2007, 11:10 AM

OMG

thank you MB and Konig!

H-D

**magicgoo** · March 15th, 2007, 12:59 PM

One question:

Will there be another video that covers the making of molds? Or does this one by chance include that part of it all?

**MassiveDVD** · March 15th, 2007, 03:27 PM

magicgoo: This one does not cover making molds. We're considering covering that subject as well as sculpture-painting in future releases.

**A.Cerasoli** · March 17th, 2007, 02:51 PM

I just got the DVD and I am now going to go watch it. Oh and CustomFlix ships really fast. I just ordered this Thursday or at least I think it was Thursday and it's here already.

Thanks for the Discount!

Awww, too bad

But, w00t if you do make a future one! I hope so, as that's the part I'm really confused about. OK, gotta wait til I get paid and I'll pick this one up. Thanks for the response to my question

**stalsby** · March 20th, 2007, 05:30 PM

Amazing! Thank you Mr. konig!!! Your work is top notch! And thanks to Conceptart for making these DVD's!

**sinkywinky** · March 20th, 2007, 05:43 PM

Will it ever be possible to download these releases? (after paying for them of course). Physical media is so last millenium, and it's not like dvds make it hard to pirate the stuff that's on them.

**MassiveDVD** · March 20th, 2007, 06:23 PM

Stalsby: Glad you like it!!

Stinkywinky: Downloadable content is definitely something we're exploring

Don't hold your breath for Petey's DVD, however, because it won't be available to download anytime soon. Other upcoming releases might be a different story.

**DelicateFairy** · March 21st, 2007, 03:30 PM

that looks just so beautiful....

**Tommy007** · March 21st, 2007, 04:19 PM

Thank you Mr. Konig, from the bottom of my heart.

**abyss103** · March 22nd, 2007, 04:39 AM

congrats on the dvd, peter!
the trailer looks very promising.

meh, im just a purist, but i think physical media etc etc has a sentimental appeal. but by all means if a downloadable versions will get more ppl to buy then do it. gotta support the community.

**Peter Konig** · March 25th, 2007, 01:30 PM

MY GOD I need to go on a diet or something....holy crap look at that side view! Guess it's too late to photoshop now...haha....

**BjWynia** · March 25th, 2007, 02:06 PM

Got mine yesterday and I have watched it twice.This DVD is great, If your a character designer or Sculpt you need this DVD.

Cant wait to get this!!!

nice to see a fun selection of toys on the shelves
have you ever done any Vinyl?

**teh roxxors** · March 28th, 2007, 04:25 PM

I ordered my video on 3/24 and received it 3/28. I'm watching it with my 11-year-old daughter (she loves sculpture, especially with Sculpey). I especially appreciate Peter's outlook on the balance of skill and persistence -- it mirrors what I've suspected for years and what I try to teach my students today.

Even a casual review of the video reveals some incredible insights into the art form. I'm sure I'll have more to say after several more viewings.

Thanks, Peter, for making this! (Please do a biped next!)

**fastfeet** · April 2nd, 2007, 07:36 PM

Just ordered mine........should be here Fri, makes for a great weekend...and I also got Marko Djurdjevic...Character Ideation coming with it....Thx again Lou
