Finally got the mold, cast, and paints done for this guy. Definitely not perfect, but learned a lot to put into the next one. process shots: molding semi successful resin cast Resin casting clean up, this would be less of an issue if i had a preassure chamber.... ah, more money to spend :-/
Well I'm calling this piece done. I plan on molding and casting it in resin, but I've been saying that for a while.... though I'd rather just sculpt something new. BTW, using regular old moist clay to sculpt tiny detailed dudes is a terrible idea. Lesson learned. beauty half turn full turn having a little fun
soundlust- Thanks man, very much appreciated! I haven't painted any yet, with this one I'll actually do some resin copies so I can finally delve into the magical world of painting. I forced myself to do a couple sculptures first before I invested in the airbrush + compressor+ paints... but I think I deserve it now ;)
