Hello Steve, I'm not on the web much, but I happen to see your question. If you are interested in live sculping, the more the merrier! We would be happy to see you at there.


Thanks John,

Any chance you have an email address that I can contact you and ask a few questions about the competition? I loved your coyote piece in 2001. Thanks, Steve

for the compliment. The rules change just a bit from show to show, but I'll give a rough idea of what they are.
You must start with bones wired,glued and or foamed into the position you want.If you use foam, use enough to hold the bones in place, but not so much that it is part of the muscles.(I use wire,glue and foam). A lifesize can not be any larger than a Mt.Lion, and a soulder form can be any size. You have only 25 hours to complete your form.Call Breakthough for details (good people) 1-800-783-7266. If you would like an in detail account please e-mail me, I would be more than happy to go more in depth. Thanks again


Hope you got my email

John, sent you an email but haven't heard from you. Hope it's not held up in a spam blocker. Loved the piece you did for the NTA. Steve
