Yeah so in the last brief I got all the armature/sculpting/mould making done and in this one we had to pad out and clothe the armature; build the set; and use the moulds to make latex versions of the hands and feet.
I'll try and keep the explanations short because, lets face it, if your not into animation/model making and the like your only here for the pictures, pictures which there shall now be an abundance of.
So, lets start with the boring stuff that I absolutely hated doing and didn't turn out right at all: latex casting. Using my plaster moulds I coated them with layer upon layer of latex, which I'd coloured with acrylic paint. This took an absolute age as it takes over half an hour at the least for each layer to dry. I then shoved my wire armature hands and feet into the moulds and here's what I was left with, these are my second attempts I might add.
Now we'll move swiftly away from my latex work, it's not the best so I'd prefer to brush it over and move on to something a bit more fun. When I say fun, I don't mean fun at all, I mean epic when it's finished but pure hell when doing. This is my armature all padded out and slowly being dressed, the pictures will be like a none sexy, backwards strip tease for you to enjoy.
I won't bore you any more with my explanations, the photo order should hopefully do all the explaining. If your interested in how I did anything just ask and I'd be happy to reply. I don't claim to be an expert and I've probably done some things wrong, I can just hear the sharp intakes of breath by professional model makers, but I get by.
Cat build.
Chair build.
Finished set.
Ignore the terrible photo quality, there's nothing wrong with your computer, I'm just that bad a photographer.
