Still having my mind fixed on the skeleton idea i decided to take a cast of my face. to do this process you must have a tutor with you at all times. To do this process i just had to sit there and let my lovely tutor Claire do all the hard work and put mod rock on my face. before applying you must take all make up off and put Vaseline on eyebrows and eyelashes, this prevents any off your hair drying-in to the mod rock and being plucked away as the Vaseline is oily and makes it hard for wet mod rock to dry on it. i had to cut strips of this befor i did anything, whilst this was being dipped in water Claire made sure that it went on evenly and that my nose area was done last so i could breath. when coming to the nose area Claire handed me straws to put up my nose so i still had some air source coming in whilst she was covering that bit up. i thought this was fun and was an amazing idea.
THIS IS HARRY!
i have began to like the skeleton so i have decided to name him HARRY as i will be working through my fmp a lot with him. Again i had used the same technique with the mod rock but wanted half of Harry's face so mine and his could collide together if it was to work out well. i put Vaseline all over the half i wanted to cast to make sure the mode rock would slip away from him which it did and worked out well. i had to cut my full mod rock face in half and attach it to Harry's cast with mod rock, this wasn't to hard i started to get used to this mod rock by now.
After waiting for the cast to dry i then mixed up some plasta making sure i had bits of clay to keep the cast straight and still. when i pored it in i then tapped the cast against the table assuring it had no air bubbles or it would leave huge holes in my cast when it dries.
After a couple of hours of sanding and making sure it was smooth i the had the final and finished out come on my right. i was so pleased with this that i wanted it to go in my exhibition as it fitted into my brief well too.
