Week 2 Creating Sculptures

The process of covering the dolls in latex was equally as time consuming as building up the layers of wax. I first had to secure the dolls to boards using moulding wax, as well as fill in any large gaps or over hangs from which the latex could not be removed from after setting. Then I started coating them in the first layer of latex, I continued with a further 5-6 layers of the period of the week to allow the latex to be really strong and able to be removed from the dolls and make casts from.
