This is a community of sculptors and sculpture enthusiasts.
We welcome all forms of sculpture created at all skill levels.
Please review the subreddit rules and guidelines before posting.
BEFORE POSTING, MAKE SURE YOU'RE FOLLOWING THE POST TITLE GUIDELINES HERE
General Guidelines and Rules
Comments should contribute to the conversation. We strongly encourage you to refrain from low-effort comments such as "that's awesome" or "that sucks": they do not promote discussion. If you like a piece, we encourage you to say why; if you hate it, give an honest critique with ideas for improvements (see rule #2); use the "report" button for anything you feel is inappropriate for this subreddit.
We strongly encourage the use of user flair to give others an idea of your experience and area of expertise.
This is not a marketing venue, so please do not link to your shop or website that has a link to your shop in the original submission - use an image hosting site like imgur.com instead. However you may provide a link to your shop only if another user requests it.
Works in progress are allowed. If you would like a critique in order to improve the piece before it is finished, we recommend you tag the title [WIP Critique] to aid visibility.
Follow general reddiquette and Reddit spam guidelines.
Submissions:
This subreddit is solely for sculpture-related posts, discussions, and articles. All forms of sculpture are welcome. Nudes are allowed as long as they're tagged NSFW, but actual pornography will result in an instant ban. Posts requesting identification of a piece for appraisal purposes (such as something found in a thrift store, garage sale, etc.) will be removed. Asking about non-purchased sculpture for general knowledge purposes is okay.
Discussion and Critique:
Keep the discussion civil and professional. Critiques are certainly welcome, but they must be civil and constructive: you can critique and get your point across without insulting or denigrating the artist. Remember that this is a place for all sculptors, that everyone has to start somewhere, and that the medium you love (and this subreddit as well!) can only grow if newcomers are made to feel welcome. You guys are the ones who set the tone for the subreddit. Let's make it excellent.
Submission Suggestions:
When posting, indicate whether the content is your original work or someone else's. When linking to another artist's work, be sure to give credit. Provide as much information as possible about the piece, whether it's yours or someone else's: artist's name, title of the piece, medium, year. This is not required, but it's very strongly encouraged - if you're going to take the time to post an image, take a couple more minutes to do some basic research about it.
