AFTER A QUICK POLISH I BEGAN ADDING LATEX

 i then started adding scrim


lots and lots and lots of scrim 

I actually added too much ... it meant i needed to do a scalpel cut at the back of the temple to get my latex mold off 


 Two heads are better than 1

the slight difficulties trying to obtain the sculpture from the mould

just a small model of what i want the bust to look like .... I would love it this to be human sized





Bust of Pan the hero of my fantasy





ANYWAY!!!
there was horrible outcomes as i took the cast apart .... both ears and shoulders fell off.... so upset but at least i have something to show for it ..... i weighs a ton ... which i found surprising ..... 




Beginning the casting of the bust

Binding the two shells together 

sealing them off with clay 

placing a stick in it and a secure base to pour plaster into 

what it looks like when plaster has been poured
