Phil Neal

Sculptur
Started in medical 
Made glass eyes and replacement ears 
Then moved onto making limbs for deformed people 
Then worked in the bbc 
But was soul crushing 
Then made large toilets for adverts 
Worked with sky on advertising 
Moved into live casting 
Live casted and edited famous people 
Did toilet role comersials 
Specialised in mad fur fabric 
Advert for pirellie 
Finer glass, silicone, plaster foam, wax where some of the materials used in the advert 
Did set design, fairly small but very intricate work 
A lot of maths work in the set design 
Created gun cases out of fibre glass, carbon fibre and perspecs 
More mad fury costume work 
Left the film industry to travel around Europe on a motor cycle 
Got a job at silverstone making models for wind tonels 
Got offered a lot of money to work there but declined because F1 was sponsored by a brand of fags 
Then got offered a job by a smaller motorcycle company which wasn't getting sponsored 
With the bike designs he managed to make them that well at the end of the motorcycle season he got both bike on pole position in Australia 
Moved into wood carving 
Was interesting because never worked in that field before only did stone carving. 
Moved into doing work for school. 
Used work from the school to put into his own work. 
A lot of wax work which can then be cast in silver and other metals. 
Key point is to experiment with all possible materials and never give up.
