Slip Casting

Postby ab_seeley on Wed Mar 18, 2009 1:28 pm

Arg so lost what with the other forum coming up, but OU still seems to have more hustle and bustle so Ill still post here too. PS I am abseeley, but my account got deactivated.

Has anyone tried slip casting an ocarina before? How did you fare? What are the drawbacks/pros of this?

I haven't done it, and don't plan to.
The first thing you'll need to do is make the plaster mold. This will need at least 2 or more pieces (the number of pieces depends on the complexity of the shapre of your oc), Clayz uses 2-piece molds for their ocs. The plaster mold pieces need to fit together precisely.
