    Cast Sculptures?

    Hey!

    I'm just curious if there's any way to buy cast sculptures to study from?

    It's a little limited, but Dickblick.com has a few hands and face parts models available. They're under Educational materials, anatomical models.

    Giust gallery has the best quality. And IMO most of the statue.com casts looks just horrible . I would go with sculpturehouse, sculptshop or giust.

    I ordered one of their drawing casts a year ago (or thereabouts), and was very impressed with it. Nice quality, good price, and, at least in my opinion, a pretty nice selection. But hey, to each his own.

    Orlandi Statuary in Chicago has a retail web site that carrys alot of great drawing casts. They have every cast I have ever seen used.

    I bought this cast not too long ago and have been very happy with its quality (for the price, of course)

    They seem to have a good balance between usefulness, quality, and price.
