Dan has been adding clay to the foam and getting the sculpture looking real good. It’s very close to being finished. How did Dan get up so high to work on the little girl (he’s not real tall)?! How do you think it looks? Please let me know.

It’s now time to make a wax copy of the sculpture. Little Dave has heated up the mold with a hairdryer (so the wax will pour a little smoother) then slowly pours wax in the mold. He rolls it around making sure to cover all the rubber then dumps it out. Dave lets it cool for a few minutes then pours in a second coat. After that coat has cooled he does a third. After the third coat has completely cooled Dave takes apart the plaster mother-mold, then slowly and carefully peels the rubber off the wax. And there you have a wax copy of the clay! Dave will hand the wax over to the waxchasers who will get rid of the seams, fix any bubbles or any other problems. We’ll show that in the next day or two.
