In this Patreon series we are going make a mold of the life-size Kronos portrait maquette that we made in a previous series. We are making this mohawk mask mold out of silicone and plaster. Today we're dealing with the plaster part of the process and we're opening the mold. Enjoy!
The full video is available to my Patrons who support me with $10 or more. The full length video is over 1 hour long and full of valuable information. To support me on Patreon and watch the full video:

My name is Eirik Arnesen, I'm a sculptor from Norway, living and working in Florence, Italy. I teach sculpture at the Florence Academy of Art and on this channel I'll share with you every step of my process, discussing materials, tools and techniques. Eventually you'll find tutorials on how I go about sculpting everything from a portrait to a life-size figure.

Nice plaster casing. I imagine that you will do a small batch of castings, that is why the casing will be made of plaster. When I do a longer production casting or the part is very large, I prefer to make fiberglass and polyester casing or even fiberglass reinforced polyurethane resin casing, they are lighter, more durable and you can apply more pressure with screws when closing the casing. Congratulations on your work, I've been following your work for years and I love your style. Greetings!😊

Thank you! I usually use acrylic resin if the mold is bigger or needs to be bolted together. It's a bit less toxic and works better for my current studio situation. I'd love to learn how to work with polyester or polyurethane some day! Maybe if I ever get a studio all to myself.

Silicon mold on outersurface is not exactly as inside...so how will plaster mold catch the actual sculpture? Is this mother mold only to support silicon mold?

Yes, the mother mold only supports the silicone.
