  • In this lifecasting tutorial video, we demondtrate making a silicone rubber mold of a child's face using Smooth-On's Body Double silicone rubber. Body Double silicone rubbercan be used to make a mold of a face, hand, arm, leg, torso, or any other body part.
    Body Double "Standard Set" and Body Double "Fast Set" are long lasting skin safe lifecasting silicone rubbers that can be applied directly to the skin to make molds of the face, hands and other body parts.
    The rubber cures quickly and will reproduce perfect detail from any original model - far better detail than any alginate.

    @mysterymelody Applying the rubber is fairly fast, and the mold is lightweight. Some models even tell us that it is very meditative and relaxing!

    @leostyle7771 Generally the eyes are sculpted open in the final casting. This can be done by pouring melted wax or clay into the Body Double mold instead of the resin. The wax or clay casting can then be re-sculpted and re-molded.

    @Tom1988ism This can be used as a memento to save for years, or give to a relative. Lifecastings are used in many different sculptural and memorial applications.

    @Dustinavollmar The mix is 1A:1B resin and 1 part metal powder. We also have a metal cold casting video on our channel which gives more information.

    Not gonna lie. The model experience looks like my worst nightmare brought to life. Process steps seem straightforward though. Thanks for the comprehensive tutorial.

    If I wanted to use this to make a mold to work off of for prosthetics would I be able to use plaster of paris to fill the mold? Is it possible to do more of the head, into the hairline if a skull cap was used??

      It is best to apply this in a thin layer. For pour on lifecasting we would recommend alginate.
