Moulding Away!





I have been rather fortunate to have the advice and guidance of one Dave Taylor, Sculptor extraordinaire to create my fossil in various forms. I first cast it in plaster, which was fairly simple, then we went on to cast it in concrete - a touch more involved, then finally I have convinced Dave to teach me the process of making a silicone mold so that I can make a model of the headlight made with resin, which we have tested using various mixtures of dye to get the amber colour I am trying to achieve...a very complex process as you can see - and this was only the half of it...literally!!
