Making a mould

Pieces i made of clay to make a mold for the creation of fibreglass and wax pieces I'm going to hang from my mobile.

Plastic mold filled with wool and wax. I used wool in the wax for the over all finished piece being aesthetically pleasing

Plastic mold, filled with cut up coloured plastic acetate (that i spoke about in a previous post), in a resin poxy. The acetate pieces are cut up pieces of a photo which i tried to print out onto acetate. This did not work to plan and the acetate got chewed up by the printer. Even thou the acetate print did not work out the way i wanted it to, it was the folds and curves created by the melting of the plastic that made the acetate an even better piece to work with than if the acetate had printed out perfectly flat.
