Help Molding Sculpt

[Jamesdraws]

I'm currently working on a character sculpt with plans of casting in resin. My experience in silicone molds/resin casting is intermediate, but I'm somewhat concerned about casting this piece.
Potential problem areas I'm seeing are:
1. Hollow interior, solid base
2. Hollow eyes/mouth
3. Tree limbs at the bottom


I was hoping someone more knowledgeable could provide some tips for getting the best silicone mold/resin cast from this sculpt.
Any help is greatly appreciated

its hard for us to get an idea of how to cast something we can't see lol

My mistake. Images have been uploaded to the original comment

yeah this is gonna have to be at least a 3 part mold...maybe even a 4 part mold.

usually the more complicated it is, the better and easier to mold it if it was in parts...instead of solid like this is.
you will defiantly have to fill in a little of the back of the eyes and mouth and then drill them out with a dremel tool or something after casting because it would get stuck in the mold any other way.

I agree with ultraman at this point. You really have to put some clay behind the eye- and mouthholes. And also this have to be at least a three-part mold, since the head is not solid. I don't know how important that is?
