I picked up a tank of co2/argon and now I’m able to weld properly again so I fired up the mig and welded some more rebar into the armature of this statue, it took awhile to get the shift of the hips right but I’m getting happy with the pose #art #sculpture #donquixote via Instagram http://ift.tt/2pPA63U

I wrapped the blocked out torso in steel mesh and did a little bit of welding on some rebar to start the stand and armature for my #sculpture commission, excited to see the legs upright, but I’ve got to keep in mind disassembly and weight since this will grow and needs to be transported too the site for installation eventually #art #donquixote #upcycle via Instagram http://ift.tt/2pkcZPt
