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.
