Fibreglassing and cleaning up...





These photos show the mould being made. The first two images show the front of the mould just after fibreglassing and before I'd done any trimming, you can also see the plaster bandage used to support the back of the wall that I mentioned in my last post. The other images show the back of the sculpt and fibreglass wall cleaned up, fibreglassed, drilled and bolted together. I trimmed everything properly with a vibrosaw and sander before demoulding. The clay came away from the fibreglass jackets quite easily because of how much it was waxed before the start of the moulding process.
