First Plaster Copy Finished

I finished painting the first successful hydrostone copy. Here it is next to the Plastilina one I’m currently working on. There was room for improvement on the first rubber pug mold so I’m going to make another with this Plastilina pug once It’s done.

This is the raw Hydrostone casting sitting on top of the silicone mold before cleaning it up.

I learned a few things from the last mold and I’m going to give it another go with this guy. I tried to make him small be he kept growing. He’s about life-size.

The Mold Worked

The mold worked but I messed it up in a couple places when I had to improvise to raise the level of Oomoo 30 when I ran short, but the process taught me a few things to do different with the next dog. And to watch for those air bubbles in the plaster mix.
