Here is the concrete version of the Fleegle mold I demolded yesterday.

After a few speed bumps, I was able to make a hydrostone casting from the new Labrador mold I modeled after Fleegle. I just filled the mold with concrete and should have an outdoor garden Labrador in a few days ready to keep an eye out for squirrels in the backyard.

Experimenting with Color on Concrete

The upside to the castings that don’t turn out is that they give me the opportunity to experiment. This little guy came out of the mold with too many bubbles so I tried some black stain on him to see what would happen. I left the eyes unstained but stained the pupils. The gray pug turned out fine and I included him to show the contrast.
