Mold-making

Just a blip to show how the first mold is made from an original clay. This is a twice - life-size man. The molds are made in sections, as you see from the tabs sticking out of the clay. The first few layers of the silicon mold material has been applied. Plaster will be applied next to stiffen the rubbery mold. Hot wax will then be poured over each section after the silicone is taken off the original. Another blip on that soon.
