Title: First Artisan Sculpt - Vintage Divers Helmet
Post by: superiorgorg30 on Wed, 20 September 2017, 14:01:56

Hello, I have finally managed to cast my first prototype of my sculpt inspired by old/vintage divers helmets. I have done this as a two part mould with the first cast producing the helmet portion and then the second part making the glass and stem. this will hopefully let any light from a switch glow through. Next cast I will make the glass portion clear/transparent colour to help with the light process.

Let me know what you all think and any suggestions on another sculpt/improvements to this one.

Thanks for looking :)

My grandad used to have one of these at his house, always had a soft spot for them. Keep it up!

Looking good, nice even texture without lots of smearing/ripping, but I do think the overall shape is feeling just a tiiiiny bit ambiguous... But maybe changing the colorway would help with that as well?
