Liz bust - moulding #09

First test casting with some stones in resin. (I mixed a little bit less resin than needed, so I just sunk some stones there.)

SWEET!!! Looks sharp my man!?

Why the stones?

Stones - I used them sometimes as a filler, like when making bases heavier. This way, when painted as stone, it feels like stone. Hellboy bust is pretty heavy...
:-)

This time I was just a little bit short of mixed resin (165 milliliters turned out to be a little bit less than needed to fill the mould), so I just dropped some stones in to fill it.

I'm at work now, but I have another casting waiting at home... :-)
I hope to start painting in the next couple of days!...

Woo Hoo!! Tye books went out via UPS, and I'll get a tracking number for you today. You should get them in a week or so.

I should spend the next days with "How To Train Your Dragon" book I got today (it's gorgeous!) and with painting the first Liz... I hope second copy inside the mould at home is ok and I can start working on it tomorrow.

If I find time then I'll try to start new mould for Ilsa, so I should have something to post to you soon. I don't know who I want to see finished first, Liz or Ilsa... :-)
