I'm trying to learn how to make ice sculptures... and I found this book on amazon about it. Well, the review sounds good anyways.
Ice Sculpting the Modern Way
FIVE STARS. Just the book I needed!, December 30, 2004
Reviewer: Bud Gott (New Castle, DE USA) - See all my reviews
I'm not one to brag, but sculpting things out of wood always came very naturally to me. I recently sculpted a wooden statue of Pat Sajak that would knock your socks off. It's so life-like that it's almost scary.
However, with wood comes a lot of splinters. I've got enough problems in my life already without that kind of extra hardship added. That's why I chose to give up wood sculpting and take up ice sculpting instead.
This here book has shown me that I can do it! In virtually no time at all, I've taken what I've learned from this book and created several great ice sculptures. I've had countless hours of fun doing it!
I'm not a total expert yet, but I'm getting there. In fact, I'm making a new ice sculpture right now that I'm bringing to a convention this weekend. It's a convention for Saved By The Bell fans (we call ourselves "saved.") My ice sculpture is going to be of Dustin Diamond, who played Screech on the show.
If it weren't for this book, I'd never have learned what I needed to know about ice sculpting! Now I can make ice sculptings of all my heroes. After Dustin Diamond, I'm going to try my hand at an ice sculpture of actor Gary Coleman. I won't need too much ice. (Ha ha)
I hope everyone enjoys this book as much as I did. Happy sculpting to you all!
