    Beautiful. I respect how rough and ready this was (no registration keys on the rubber mold or mother mold edges) but still pulled a really tight looking cast. That's just inspiring dude!

    I've been wanting to do this for a long time. Thanks for explaining the process. You can use the same mold using concrete. A friend of mine used plaster instead of fiberglass and he used to make garden sculptures and statues. Cool. 💀

    I had to make over 130 smashable skulls for a play. I of course went the cheap route (given the tight budgets of theatre) with plaster. I thought for sure when I saw you smash that skull you were doing it for the same reason... pleasant surprise to see a what you've done with these! :) Great work as always!

    @DavidGriffiths Год назад

    Love it! I sculpted a small skull (between the size of a golf ball and a baseball) and I am wondering what is the best method to make a mold of it for casting? 1. Place in a cup and pour resin in the cup? or 2. two part mold of L and R sides similar to this video... ?

    • @thedarkpower
      @thedarkpower  Год назад +1

      The easiest way would probably be to attach it to a board, hot glue some foam board around it to create a surround and then pour the silicon.

    Could concrete be used in this type of mold, and if so, how many would it cast before starting to degrade?

    • @thedarkpower
      @thedarkpower  8 дней назад

      Yes it could. For something this small I'm not sure how well it would pick up the detail, but you'd get something. Generally moulds can do about 40-50 casts before they start degrading if resin is used. I've not tried concrete so I'm not sure if that would change if concrete was used.

    I bought a decorative skull and noticed it had a little weight to it. On the very bottom of the stand (it’s a skull and little bit of spine on a stand) there is a little hole. What material could this be made from? I feel the little hole is a clue on how it was made.

    • @thedarkpower
      @thedarkpower  Год назад

      If it's mass produced I'd imagine it's a blown plastic, maybe abit like a drinks bottle. If it's hand made it could me roto cast polyurethane.
