Just curious, how do you generally make a mold symmetrical with something as finicky as sculpting? Is it an intensive process?

Nah, it's EZ - just need to use the mirror tool.  :D

Haha if only...with your sculpts, I could believe it. :P

Ooh, lovely colours! I am liking the pink ones a lot. :)

That blue in the background looks awesome! Gold on top of light blue and a darker blue around the base.

These almost remind me of that artisanal/small-batch jewelry that's all the rage these days. That blue & gold is PENG  :eek:

Wish we could see more workshop and progression pics of your work, ETF!

I've read through this thread a couple of times, but always love to see more. It's already been over a year since any updates :eek:  :p

I understand not wanting to go into details, but I'd love to see some of the work areas and more general overviews of the process from start to finish.

As someone who is currently getting into making artisan caps, I would love to see some of the more updated procedures ETF uses. Some of the stuff he does blows me away. He must have the timing of the different resins down to a perfect science.

I know that is why, but it doesn't make it any easier! lol

I think a lot of it is practice, too. Just like anything else, the more experience you have the more things you intuitively know to do - so you mix your parts more efficiently, you remember to start and stop your timer every time, and you have a better feel for what will work and what won't.

Getting the science down pat definitely helps though.

I just read through all of the pages. Some great progress Marcus! Look forward to seeing more. Looks like you don’t have the newer designs in here though. I’ll go read your artisan page.  :thumb:
