Learn fiberglass-silicon molds and sculpture

More than 600 students in the same Spanish version! This course allows you to learn how to make three-dimensional pieces of resin and fiberglass from an original piece: it can be a piece of your creation or simply an object that you love.

To achieve this, we will carry out the entire process step by step: we will create a mold made of silicone rubber with resin shell with glass fiber and we will make the hollow "emptying" also of resin with fiberglass (the final result).

Once you make a silicon rubber mold, you can make numerous pieces from these: just repeat the process of "emptying" as many times as you want, all will be identical to the original object.

You can create replicas of your own modeling in plasticine, mud, epoxy, ceramics etc or replicate other pieces of rigid material.

This is very important: we will make a kind of mold that is not very common in United States, because it has a resin shell that allow you to save a lot of silicone (the most expensive material here), instead of the classic "box mold" where you pour silicone in a sealed box containing the sculpture. In this class you will learn how to make a think silicon layer mold so you'll save a great deal of money. I'm sure you'll appreciate that!

This technique is THE BASIS OF:

- Traditional sculpture to create more than one piece from the original modeling. The final piece can be resin and fiberglass (as in this video), filled resin without fiberglass, plaster or cement, any other material

- the technique of lost wax in bronze. From this same mold can be made waxes that in the foundry are used to create the final bronzes - soon we will be uploading a video of how to make a bronze work

- in the ART TOYS industry to create identical models that you can then customize, modify and intervene.

Know the most indicated and professional materials and the creative process step by step.

Make your own piece thanks to simple and clear instructions.

IT IS THE IDEAL COMPLEMENT OF THE MODELING COURSE, look for it in Udemy:

- LEARN THE SECRETS OF SCULPTURE AND PROFESSIONAL MODELING

- LEARN TU SCULPT THE MALE BODY

CLARIFICATION:

- In this course "Learn the secrets of fiberglass and silicon molds and sculptures" the final figure is hollow (fiberglass is used in layers) and filled (optional) with polyurethane, although it can be left hollow (for example to make a lamp ) THIS TECHNIQUE IS SUITABLE FOR MEDIUM OR LARGE PARTS
- In the course "how to mold and cast in resin the human figure" the final figure is solid (filled with resin) and fiberglass is NOT used. THIS TECHNIQUE IS SUITABLE FOR SMALL OR MEDIUM PIECES
