If you're an amateur, you might be jumping in a little deep to start with a life-sized figure - because of the issues associated with creating a work that is then molded and cast. In short, if you know nothing of this process, visit a foundry and observe the process of mold making and casting ... start at the end and work your way to the beginning. I don't suggest attempting this until you understand the entire process ... a process that involves technical know-how and skilled craftsmanship.
It is WHITE EARTHEN CLAY, LOW FIRE, NO GROG MANUFACTURED BY HIGHWATER. YOU CAN PURCHASE THE CLAY FROM ANY CERAMIC SUPPLY HOUSE. :)

Do you hollow out these sculptures if you were to fire them in the kiln or do you just leave them as thick as they are? Do you use low fire clay or high fire clay?

mrjoaquin: If the client wants the bust in fired clay, then yes I hollow out the bust to a wall thickness of 3/8-1/2". I use a low fire clay with no grog.
