Molding and Casting for Sculptors : Level 1
If you are a sculptor or crafter wanting to make your own molds and casts on a small scale, this class is just what you've been looking for. This course is presented in two parts so that artists can pick and choose how much information they need. This Level 1 portion is aimed at complete beginners with no prior molding and casting experience. For those who have some previous experience and are looking for more complex techniques, starting with the Level 2 portion is a great choice. Together, the two parts form a comprehensive look at the sculpture reproduction process.
