Faux Bronze Statue of Jeffery Ross for DIY Man Caves
Roasting a faux bronze statue.
A one of a kind faux bronze statue to roast the roast-master himself, comedian Jeff Ross! For the season premiere of the DIY Network’s show Man Caves’ thirteenth season, they called TSD to be featured on the show and to create a one of a kind sculpture to help make this build something really special.
The episode, titled, “Jeff Ross’ Roastmaster General Man Cave” featured a makeover of the comedian’s New York City apartment, including a faux fireplace with a very interesting feature… We built a 30″ long faux bronze statue of the comedian, naked and in repose, to be roasted on an electric turning spit over his fireplace!
With a very tight filming schedule, our whole team pitched in to make this really cool sculpture. Among the sculptors and artists whose efforts made this a reality: Patrick Louie, Tom Spina, Rich Krusell, Melissa Dooley, Steve Abbananto, Maria Teran and Collen Newell.
Check your local listings or the DIY Network Man Caves page to see when the episode will air again or watch other episodes of the show.

A few words from our client…
I just wanted to say thank you again for all your hard work. You guys do great work and not only that, you are a blast to work with. Everyone LOVED baby Jeff including Jeff, his reaction was priceless, when we showed it to him for the first time, he literally sat down on the floor right in front of it indian style, he was really impressed not only by the idea of it, but also by the craftsmanship. I believe at one point he even said “IT LOOKS JUST LIKE ME, EXCEPT MY ASS ISNT THAT NICE.!” Mentioned how small the fig leaf was, it was great. We also showed him the picture you all signed in scene, he got a real kick out of it.
So again, thanks for all your hard work, I really hope we get to work together down the road. And again, we really appreciate it.
