My latest project is a silicone bust. A relatively small matter but something I've only just thought about... could someone please give me some advice on how to achieve an even thickness of silicone on my finished pull?
I have moulded my sculpt in plat sil10 with a fibreglass 2 part shell and intend to cast it in plat sil10 using a release agent. Now normally I'd paint on my silicone with a bit of thixo and try my best to achieve an even thickness. Does anyone have a better way?
I could attempt to rotocast this piece but plat sil10 even in its unthickened state isn't the most free flowing substance in the world, I'm unsure whether it would successfully rotocast.
Anyone have any tips please?
Many Thanks
