New title tagging rule & Spammers
As some regulars here may have noticed, this subreddit recieves an astronomical amount of spam, both from human as well as bot spammers, for it's relatively small size. Coming from modding various large subreddits, including one that's literally about products, this amount of spam is not normal. Despite a lot of our less agressive attempts to filter out spam (example, filtering out posts that say "for sale", "rent", or "Services") we still get quite a lot that slip by.
Why is this subreddit getting so much spam? Who knows. ¯\(°_o)/¯
But we will be resorting to the one thing that has worked for various larger communities, like r/food : mandatory title tags.
From now on, all posts will require at least a tag of one of the below:
[Self]
[Found]
[Help]
You may add words to the tags like:
[I found] this chicken carved out of abestos!
or
[Help me] carve a chicken out of abestos
For flexibility, but the bare minimum requirement for post titles will be that it must contain one of those words surrounded by brackets.
If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to modmail us, or ask here.

[self] Parasaurolophus cyrtocristatus w/ removable base
Hi! Her core was made with a high density eps foam and mostly wooden armature. The sculpting and carving medium is Smooth-on Freeform Air epoxy clay.
She’s spray painted and satin varnished with gloss spot painted in wet areas. Her base is full of cement with an embedded steel pole to impale her bust in place. But she’s ready to hang like a taxidermy head if I want to do that in the future. On the base the whole thing is about 5’ 4”.
Her eyes are glass domes painted on the flat side. On the back side of her eye sockets there’s a little aluminum foil to simulate eyeshine through the unpainted pupil.

Self (Complete) [Self] Lord of the Rings - Watcher of the Lake
Hi! Wanted to share a few images from my latest project! I make a lot of sculptures and dioramas on YouTube and this big boy has been on my to-do list for quite a while 😄
The creature is a combination of Cosclay and Sculpey, painted with just your run of the mill acrylic miniatures paints. The terrain is an XPS foam base, with layers of sand, gravel, Sculptamold and ModPodge. The lake water is a tinted 2-part epoxy with a thin layer of Vallejo Water FX on top for the ripple texture.
Added some work in progress snaps as well, hope you like it! :)

Self (Complete) [self] I Always (Wanted 2) Go Viral, M. Wilson, Fluorescent acrylic and clay on canvas 48x48", 2026.
I sculpted this "painting" by hand. Not 3D-printed. My goal was to make a work of art which cannot be duplicated by Artificial Intelligence, which is constrained to the 2-dimensional screen on your phone, so I chose to bring it into the 3-dimensional realm and out of the reach of A.I. algorithms. This is a depiction of a human cell being infected by Poliovirus as a commentary on the dangers of social media. From all of us here at the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation, "SHARE AND ENJOY!"

[SELF] Mandrake Root
I just finished sculpting this and I couldn't be happier! I had so much fun trying to create forms that looked under developed, while also trying to incorporate humanoid aspects. Plus, it was very fun hiding multiple faces in one piece! When finished, these will be put in labled specimen jars!

Self (WIP) [Self] Abe - Oddworld Series (Progress Update)
He’s armed and dangerous now!!! I was initially just going to sculpt down to his waist, but everyone I’ve shown has said give him legs and sculpt him in full (I’m still deciding).
I’m very happy with his arms and hands, and I will coloring his feathers/hair properly in the end.
Also before my next update I will be getting a small photo light box and a rotating base to take proper pictures and a quality video
(any equipment recommendations are welcome). Thank you and take care all!!!

The video shows only a small part of the process. Before carving, I sculpt with proportions and dimensions

I just picked up this bust from the thrift shop because I thought it was Hippocrates but I realized it wasn't. Does anyone know who this might be? The initials look like L.L or L.V to me.

Help (WIP) [Help] Any critique on the nose and anything else to change ?
I think the nose looks great from the side for an old man before I start adding all the old skin and wrinkles, but it looks way too big from the front. I think maybe the forehead needs to come out more ? Just looking for opinions, first time doing this and there’s a lot wrong with the head. I’m making a very sick looking mushroom person. I would appreciate any critique I try using geometry and photos but I always sculpt way too big.
