Sculpture Tutorial- Modeling Clay Preparation, Armature & Mold Making

Visit our official site at http://sikat.wetpaint.com/

In this 2 part series
Sculpture Tutorial: Modeling Clay Preparation, Armature & Mold Making.

I decided to make this tutorial as part of my training on fiberglass sculpture. I want to make this documented series handy whenever I need to review the whole process.

Freddie Dumaquita is my colleague at Sining Kulay at Tinta. He is experienced in making resin and glass sculptures, exhibited them in our group shows.

This is a bold project, a commissioned life-size portrait statue of Filipino Business tycoon. Project duration is 2 weeks, November 2008.

Learn and enjoy!

where do you get your supplies? :D

[mannydeguzmanjartist]

@melissawness

The oil is available at any motor shops and gasoline station. Kalsomine powder is available at hardware store. Micro crystal wax is available at candle making stores or factory...

what if i add colors in it 

[mannydeguzmanjartist]

@ajayparadkar

Yes you can add color, but this is only a modeling clay and mold. I suggest you add colors to the final product\, whether you will be using a resin or other material for the final cast of your sculpture

Sir Manny, i just want to ask the exact ratio of the materials used to attain the best plasticity of the clay . after i watch your video i tried it but the result is not ideal or malleable enough. please give me the the exact measurements or ratio of kalsomine, and parafin wax ba yung gagamitin sir? saka ilang litro po ng motor oil? beginner po kasi ako sa sculpting pero po painter din po ako. saka pano po pagsali sa SIKAT sir?

@jeanianrafaelo

This is an old video from our workshop and I can't recall much about the ratio.I didn't pursue sculpture as I am into fashion photography now. If I can clearly remember, we used about 3 crystal wax for about 5-7 Kilos of kalsomine. You can experiment with the small amount of ratio, say half block of crystal with about a kilo of kalsomine and add/ reduce kalsomine per ratio. For SIKAT membership, please contact our Founding President Pol Mesina. I'll PM you his contact number
