Steel lion with relief muscles and a mane growing in the wind

In order to create this lion, the Turkish sculptor Selcuk Yilmaz needed 4000 elements, which he reliably welded together.

In the arsenal of the Turkish master is not only a stately animal, but also sculptures depicting the head of a tiger, foxes, lynxes.

To create animal strands, the master applies forged and welded steel, which gives each sculpture a relief muscle, waving wool in the wind.

Selcuk's last sculpture is a lion. It is created from 4000 metal elements. Work on it took the sculptor almost a year, because it included manual cutting and chasing each piece of metal. This metal lion weighs almost 250 kg.
