I delivered this little guy to a satisfied customer today. He’s custom painted to look like her four legged friend.

Painting this guy proved to be an unexpected challenge.

Little Labrador Statue

Published on July 23, 2017 by Raud Kennedy1 Comment

I demolded the concrete little Labrador hanging statue just now. It turned out fine (Lab in the lower right corner). I’m going to try a new cement next that is supposed to cure faster. It would be nice to be able to take a casting out of the mold after a day instead of 4 or 5 days. For some unknown reason I find this photo a little surreal.

This guy was a pet project I wanted to see if I could make. Easter Island Head. I’m going to stick a few of these in my garden tilted this way and that.

New Pug Head Tilt Figures

These are the first hydrostone castings from the two new “pug head tilt” molds I finished yesterday. Like the others their heads tilt left or right or rest in the center. I’m not sure what to call these two. Right now I just refer to them as “Ooo, look!” Any suggestions?

Late Night Success

Second time’s the charm. I couldn’t get the first casting out of the plaster cradle I made to hold the mold without breaking off an ear and the tongue, but after some modification to the cradle, this one turned out fine. Note the biscuit above his head that will be attached to his nose.
