Also hoekbloem update

I also have been bussy with another project (Yes there are some spare moments to fill, in between cooking, sleeping and working for money), the "Hoekbloem". There also have been some problems concerning the thickness of the epoxy coating, as I was sanding the woden frame came to surface on some points, which I chisseled out and filled again with red epoxy. I just did the last repare (I hope) on the red, I also did 2 rounds of repares on the black. The next step will be probably the yellow/orange heart on the top, then the green of the "stem" and at last the white/ivory of the "teeth". Next 2 pics are top and bottom view.

At last

Hello and welcome back. Once more I started the thing i call klooien, and there were and still are quite a few projects that need some geklooi. The good news is that I have some new stuff to show the curious ones among you, and ofcourse I will tell something about the things you are seeing, so here is the update on the clay-adventure. Miraculously enough after I opened the plastic bags I found that the clay was not cracked and all dried out, after being neglected for months on end.
I changed some minor things, bought silicon goo to make the mold with, and after that dried i made a second support-mold so that the silicon would not deform when I'd fill it with any compound. So the first pic is of the mold after I cleaned it a little:










The next day I just wanted to see wether the mold would loose from the cast without the use of release-spray (some kind of wax); the mold is made of silicon, so I hoped nothing, not even epoxy, would hold on it. Thank god it turned out all beautifully right, the only thing was that the epoxy I used was very thick, so lots of bubbles in the cast. The good thing is tho that the mold is still intact, so there is the possibillity of more than 1 cast. The next pic is the first cast, after some repares, drying after which i will sand it and do a second round of repares and sanding, etc etc. When I'm content I'll make a second mold of the cast and that will be almost perfect.
