Pretty cool man cave art

[pvelyk]

This guy does some pretty incredible art with drywall.  I am sure a lot of people here would like this in the man cave.

That is awesome

Wow - superb!!

I'm actually in the process of rocking, taping and sanding my man cave walls and after 37 tries at a perfectly smooth seam with my spackle knife, there's always still just that tiny bit of imperfection in the joint compound.

When I'm frustrated with my next butt joint, I'm just going to say **** it and do what this guy does. So cool

I'm with you Dave! I usually get a nice pattern of birds flying over..

guys with chainsaws or putty knives are just amazing!

Now THAT is art. An oil painting of a bowl of fruit, not so much.

So how does that not crack when it dries?

[Giz9219]

Thinking its veneer plaster?

[justtracytrolling]

The only guy in my area doing this type of stuff uses brown and finish plaster over styrofoam and fiberglass mesh that is screwed on with plastic washers. This is done on exteriors too. They use red hot electric shaping tools to carve the rough design out of foam.

I wonder if bigger sections (like the coyote) is done in thinner layers that he builds up in time so he can avoid cracking.  I found his actual website with pictures of more projects:

Evidently he will be offering tutorials.

What ive seen isnt solid plaster

[pvelyk]

I kind of question the solid plaster to as the weight would be a issue I imagine.    I have very little artistic ability so the only way I would ever get a wall like this is to hire the guy and all these issue would be his problem. LOL.

The moldings on his website are done similarly to what ive seen, but raised art is carved.
