Hey guys,
A friend of mine has pointed me to this site to gain some inspiration and pickup tips and tricks. I have to admit I am blown away by some of the work on here! Such skill and talent.
Anyhow, I'm currently trying to make a sculpt for a bit of fun and time permitting a halloween mask ( end goal ). Anyway here is some pics of where I am up too at the moment with it :
The Teeth will not be staying in for the casting, i have placed them in the mask just to test how things look.
What i need a bit of advise with is once I have finished the sculpting process ( getting close now, just need to smooth and finalise ). What is the best way to make a cast of this? I will be using latex for the final mould so I can wear it. I thought about making it a 2 piece mould and using plaster of paris to make the cast but i know this is not the strongest way and I would like the cast to be re-usable after.
I look forward to meeting some of you guys and hopefully learning more about this process
Thanks in advance guys and please don't be too harsh, it is my first ever attempt at anything like this.
Regards
Chris
