Artist Carole Feuerman takes six             painstaking months to create the stunningly lifelike sculptures<img src="http://i.imgur.com/svkgn.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Carole,               50, spends a gruelling six months on the waxworks, with  her              hyper-realistic sculptures selling for as much as  £250,000  each.The             Manhattan-based sculptor's  collection  includes several female model             waxworks in  swimming costumes  or bikinis.The             grandmother-of-two  said her waxworks  are seen as so lifelike that             viewers of  her work often refer  to the models as real people.She             said: 'My studio can take people by surprise, it is always littered             with different body parts.'As   my work is designed to look as             realistic as possible,   people often get a bit freaked out when they             come in. <img src="http://i.imgur.com/00ylj.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Larger than life: Part of the time consuming             nature of creating the models is down to their large size 'When             I am creating and painting a sculpture people refer to the work as             'it'. 'But  when the piece is finished, people subconsciously             start  calling them 'him' or 'her' - they speak about my art as if              they were real people. 'Even with people who have worked with             me for years, and are used to my art, end up doing it. 'When              designing a piece, I rarely base a sculpture purely on one  person -             most of my work will use the face of one model, the  body of another             and the arms and hands of a third.<img src="http://i.imgur.com/N8zrO.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Squint and she's real: Carole's lifelike models             sell for up to £250,000 each'I have sculptures that             have been made up of body parts of five or six different people.'Carole              creates the amazing works by creating a mould, and making a  resin             cast out of liquid polyester, before using very fine  sandpaper to             refine the piece and to give the sculpture its  lifelike skin.She             then spends weeks spraying  hundreds of layers of skin-toned paint to             the piece,  attaching real human hair to finally bring it to life.<img src="http://i.imgur.com/M5IAu.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />Sleeping beauty: Carole uses hundreds of layers             of  skin-toned paint and real hair to create the hyper-realistic              models'It is very time consuming but you can't rush             it - the longer it takes, the better it looks.'As  we know             the look of human skin so well it takes time to be  able to get the             sculpture realistic enough to trick the eye.'But  the aim of             my art is not just to make a realistic looking  model - I am not             trying to do what Madame Tussauds do and  simply recreate life-like             representation.'My art tells a story and I want the viewer             to be involved and really feel the character's emotion.' </blockquote>
