In this video I'm sculpting the master of mystery and the head honcho of horror, Edgar Allan Poe himself! Watch me create him from scratch out of polymer clay in this full process tutorial video. I make his armature from wire, sculpt his details with polymer clay including his face likeness, body, and paint him with acrylics.

I hope you like my Edgar Allan Poe sculpt!! He paved the way for so many people who create all the horror and mystery stories we know and love today. This guy has influenced my work so much and I love that I added him to my YouTube sculpture collection. Let me know how you think I did in the comments! Thank you for being here, see you again soon 🍅
-
William Shakespeare holding a skull would be perfect as a companion for this piece so they can be showing each other their skull
-
I love the Edgar Allan Poe sculpt! “Quoth the Raven ‘Nevermore’”
-
This turned out so well!! I am impressed with the level of detail you got in his face. Edgar would be proud!
-
It would be a massive undertaking but I'd love to see your take on a diarrama that could house your sculpture that has bits and pieces of his famous works like the raven, a floorboard pried up to reveal a heart, Annabel Lee by the lake in her casket, a big crack down the visage of the room...
-
I'm consistently blown away by your sculpts. They're awesome, my guy. Thanks so much for your clear, comprehensive, step-by-step guides!
-
The sculpture of Edgar looks really cool. Thanks for sharing the video on how you made him.
-
Awesome sculpt. A raven sitting on his shoulder or other arm would have made me absolutely feral. 😭❤️
-
And I was thinking about Ace of clay creating Vincent van Gogh (even though he's a painter) !!
-
I don't mean to compare art but the way you designed Edgar's caricature makes me think about the Corpse Bride. I could definitely see him standing next to Victor or Emily.
-
Edgar Allen Poe plus ur sculpting art style is literally a match made in heaven🖤
-
It's actually so nice to see a return to "classic" Ace of Clay. The idea of doing Shakespeare is great, maybe do a few others like Lovecraft, Mary Shelly etc ❤
-
Bit of a strange request, but could you try sculpting a character from Soul Eater? The show's artstyle is basically anime mixed with Tim Burton on serious amounts of cocaine. I would like to see your take.
-
Absolutely brilliant-you’ve captured the sadness and resignation in Poe’s face . Excellent work. 😎🙏🎶
-
I adore Poe, I’ve read everything he wrote. This is terrific. There is a guy in Maryland that does plays as Poe. Can’t get enough.
-
I think you did a wonderful piece of work with Edgar!!!! Thanks Anthony👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🌹
-
I didn't think I could love him or Edgar any more than I already do 😭💜 Amazing work!!!!
-
I'm always so amazed by your sculptures. Your stories are so engaging when you'll sculpting. But my favorite part is how you teach us how to do characters step by step and telling us not to be affaid of adding to our sculptures and make it our own. Your very talented. May God bless all your endeavors. Thank you again for being such great Teacher.
-
I knew exactly who it was from the thumbnail pic before even reading the title. Love Edgar Allan Poe - you did a great job!
-
ypu captured his likeness excessively well, fantastic work bro!!
