DIY Pop Art Guides

Jason Freeny Created a Pop Art Sculpture Guide for His Fans

— January 4, 2021 — Art & Design
Jason Freeny, an American artist who's widely renowned for his pop art sculptures that reimagine classic cartoon figures and much more, has released a tutorial that highlights his creation process.

Freeny shared a teaser of the video through his Instagram account, telling fans "After the many, many requests for tutorials over the years, I finally put together a full length, start to finish, every single step of my process, video. If you're the kind of person that enjoys 45 minutes of sculpting, wet sanding and airbrushing tips... grab a chair."

The in-depth tutorial shows how Freeny crafts his 'Plunger Monsters,' breaking the process down into three key steps: sculpting, wet sanding, and air brushing. Through the helpful DIY guide, Freeny helps to prepare those who are looking to take up toy sculpting but aren't entirely sure how to get started.
