Here's the final piece. Only thing left to make are the ribbon things that hang down the sides. I had hoped to have this posted some time ago but to many things getting in the way.
I've used naptha and an old tooth brush to clean clay out of an epoxy mold. Odourless mineral spirits works too. For future projects though, use Frekote Lifft (by Loctite) as a release. There won't be any clay left in the mold. I couldn't believe it the first time I used it.
WOW! This is incredible. Great details, the gills, skin texture, the fins even the expression. Just awesome!
Any ideas on what kind of paint scheme for it? Thanks for sharing this.
