Summer Project: Resin and Silicone casting ->Realistic Suits
12 years ago
So I've decided to take on a couple of projects in the summer if I have enough money for it. ^^
I've had so much fun sculpting with clay with good results that I want to take on a bigger project.
In the summer of 2013 I want to sculpt and resin cast my own fursuit head blanks. If successful theses blanks will probably be sold for £20 - £30 a throw (probably for the latter because I want to ensure it arrives to the customer safely, also a lot cheaper because I'm not a professional but I still think it'd cover material costs and give people a good starting point).
I plan on trying to make the following:
Basic canine (probably wolf or G Shepherd)
Small Cat (for a suit for raffix)
My future aspirations after those would be to do:
a big cat mould
a fox mould
and possibly a special Boxer mould for myself. xP
I want to start to also cast custom silicone paw pads with UV and glow in the dark properties if desired for about £15 - £20 a throw and noses for £4. xD
I think the benefit of buying within the UK if you live in the UK is no shipping taxes! xP <3 <3
Can't wait to try all this stuff out!!
As if the UK doesn't need another person to make fur suitparts. ;D
I like a good challenge and want to improve.. this is my next big thing.
So long stry short I'll be doing:
Silicone paw pads and noses.
A resin blank or two
some other sculpted shizzle. xD
Lemme know what you think. Hopefully you should see something in the summer…sometime...
