HOW TO MAKE A COMPLEX MOLD for Sculpture Hydrostone, Plaster Mother Mold, Handmade Mould
In this indepth video I discuss prepping the sculpture for how to make a complex mold through adding a backboard, considering final fit to the clock project and applying a Krylon crystal clear finish. This video covers mixing applying the hydrostone, fiber glass precautions, wait times, shimming and tips for a more successful mold. This video is 2 of 2 for the mold making process. The silicone application is covered in part 1 of 2. See link below. Ive decided to take on this project I considered years ago. However, I want to add a sculptural element to the top of my clock. I have been inspired by the Dream Lady sculpture at the Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicago. I will cover the basics of incorporating the sculpture into the clock design, Simplicity, by Clayton Boyer. Im breaking this series into 4 videos. Part 1: concept, design and armature design. Part 2: clay and modeling. Part 3: casting the sculpture and cutting out the gears. Part 4: finish and assembly. Thanks for coming along BE SURE
