Volume 6 "Sculpting the Femme Fatale"
(The Dangerous,Sexy Female)

"I love all of John Brown's work but this is my favorite! It's great to see him work from a live model, and incredibly helpful for beginning sculptors to see how he constantly references the model's outline to gage the size and shape of body parts more effectively than just trying to model all the details at once, a mistake beginners commonly make. Anyone who wants to learn true figurative sculpting techniques would benefit from watching this. "
-Jami L.

"One of the best sculpting DVDs ever! John Brown takes his time to talk about each tool and how to use it."

This DVD is beyond amazing! Anyone who wants to learn the PROPER foundation for any figurative sculpture must watch this--and take lots of notes. Invaluable.

John Brown's series is the best that I have seen. Beginners have big problems with armatures and mold making in addition to understanding basic anatomy. Brown handles it all clearly and makes most operations far simpler than most beginning sculptors can suppose. His snap-away armature demonstration is a classic. If I had seen his demonstration on utilizing foamcore and other simple materials to make box molds years ago, I could have saved frustration and money. Highly recommended.

If you want to learn realism in structure and skin texture this is the DVD for you. This DVD was very professionally thought out and filmed, no details were left out. I rate it as excellent!

"These are the best visual material I've seen on sculpture. I've wanted to sculpt and bought some other videos.They weren't as informative and the sculptures weren't interesting. You are very clear and articulate, your explanations of what's going on is clear and simple.Thanks for making such a wonderful piece of work."
-Neil Fryzer

I have looked high and low for useful information and techniques related to my field of Sculpture in the Entertainment Industry. So I was thrilled when I came across John Brown's Gnomon Workshop Sculpture series. He provides clear, practical and efficient lessons learned from his many years of experience. John teaches a process from scratch that will benefit everyone from novice to professional and will be helpful to an artist even beyond sculpture. Excellent!

-Keep up the great work. I just bought John Brown's DVDs last week and the production quality and instruction are incredible.
-A Diaz

The DvD's on Maquettes offers a facinating journey through the process of building up an "anatomically correct" sculpture from the base of an armature.Watching the scuptor work from broad abstract shapes toward final detail was inspring if not educational.As a beginner I likewise appreciated the prelimary explanations relating to tools (how they are used), clays, etc. I look forward to viewing other dvd's in this series as I have the time to do so.Well worth viewing!

"Great job on these DVDs! I recently completed a 13 week (4 hours per week) sculpture class here in DC and learned next to nothing compared to what I got out of your first two sculpture DVDs. John Brown is a great teacher!"
-Eric Keller

I just wanted to say thank you for a great set of training DVDs. I must say you give great depth on setting up to from beginning to end. I watched your DVD's at least 7 times.
