My Work

Octopus casts in hydrocal & Kast Krete

  
    

The final mold for the cotopus out worked really well. Here are the final casts in Hydrocal and acrylic paint and in Kast Krete. 

Octopus in Cold Case Bronze

I finally got the octopus re-sculpted and re-molded. I'm really thrilled with the final result! Here's a version in cold cast bronze.


    

    

Dragon Head in Cold Cast Bronze






Here's the dragon head in cold cast bronze. The colour was enhanced with coloured wax.

Dragon Head in Cast Concrete






These are the first run castings for the dragon head. I used Kast Krete which is a monument grade concrete that can be left outside. I used a black concrete dye for the darker one and used a colored wax to enhance the color more.

Dragon Head molding process



Here are some work in progess shots of the molding of the dragon head in silicon. It turned out pretty good with very few air bubbles.

Dragon head completed!





I've completed the dragon head! Here are a few shots of the final sculpt in Roma clay.

Dragon Fountain Head work in progress

Here are some work in progress shots of a dragon head I'm making as a pond fountain for my friend Dave.



Finished Octopus Sculpt










Sorry, long time no post...

Anyways, thought I'd chuck some pix of my finished octopus. Unfortunately the mold didn't cure properly so I have to resculpt it again.
*sigh*
..Back to work..





Octopus Sculpt







Here's my current work in progress shots on an octopus sculpture I've got in the works. I'm working in Chavant clay for the first time and finding it quite nice to work with. I'm planning to do a limited run of this guy in bronze.

Still got it after 6 Years...



Here's a hand fabricated ring I made for my brother’s new wife. The diamonds came from some rings from her grandmother and the ring was constructed from 19K white gold sheet. This is one of the first major rings I’ve done in 6 years. Nice to see I can still pull it together.
