Artist's Comments

This helmet is very close to being done. It is my own design. All of the helmets I have created were sculpted on top of other helmets.
Once this helmet is completed it will be molded in silicone and then a resin cast will be made.

You are so amazing!

Very decorative, ornamentation being a key thing for gothic architecture. Can't wait to see the cast!

How much does something like this cost you? Rough estimate of the clay, the silicone mold and the resin cast?

Thanks!
If you have the time, could you also answer these questions:
Is that oil based clay?
What brand of molding material do you use or like?
What resin do you use?

Thanks again!

Oil based clay is not a good idea when using silicone for molding. I get my resin an silicone from smoothon.

Sounds like smooth on is the best, I've heard that from a couple other people.
Thanks for the info!
