Here is an update. I know mold making is boring. But to all those out there sculpting heads. You are going to have to get to this point eventually and it helps to see pictures of what is actually done.
For me I am visual learner, which is why I share.
First half done. Notice the Keys, the circles sticking up. Those are made so the two halves lock into each other and do not mis-align. This area is coated before the second half is poured.
Here is the second half coated. The silicone is pink on thios half becuase my distributor sent me a slightly different silicone. Both types are Tin Cure Silicone tso there was no compatibility issues.
Mother mold is made. Notice the 4 protruding sections. Those are clay space holders which will later be removed and poured with silicone. These keys stick up into the mold to hold it in place within themothermold.
Removal of the mothermoth. The clay is also gone as well
Silicone is poured into the little circular spouts. And allowed to set.
The mother mold is again removed. See how the cylinders will stick into the mothermold? Starting to make sense?
I will update more tonite. When I pop open the mold. I am curious to see how the SEAM LINE repair went.
Thanks for looking.
