The ears part two


This time i have gone for more coverage over the ears and been more aware of undercuts and possible trappings. I think a three of four part mould will be needed so as not to get locked together or a silicone mould.

I decided to try a silicone mould and test it out on only one ear first to see if it would work.
I used a layer of cap plastic thinned down with acetone and painted it onto both sides of the mould. then mixed up some silicone with no deadener as i wanted a stiffer result for the ears.
the test cast came out well so i moulded and cast the second ear which came out well.
