Guest crobinc840 Posted December 10, 2010 Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 Very nice, do you sculpt it with oil based or water based? I use oil based and cast in silicone. Would love to see more of your work. How much do you charge? Quote Link to post

Would love to see more of your work. How much do you charge? i done a couple of owls, but never done it since, they were water based paints i was using,i will try put pics of the owls on in the post in general forum,since this is a running dog forum,and would like to see if anyone has an idea were i could get some,thanks mark Quote Link to post
Guest crobinc840 Posted December 10, 2010 Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 Oh I thought you sculpted the figurine. Are you looking for casts of dogs then? I sculpt but pour the casts in plaster or cement. Quote Link to post
beddiwhuppet 10 Posted December 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 no mate im after running dog ornaments already to paint or painted? Quote Link to post
Guest crobinc840 Posted December 10, 2010 Report Share Posted December 10, 2010 I can sculpt them from a picture but it wouldn't be cheap silicone is costly but the mold would last a lifetime so if you reuse the mold it wouldn't cost much. Quote Link to post

You can have it if you want to try it out. All you do is put plaster or cement in it and wait until it's completely dry to take it out. I've not been sculpting lately, it's just a hobby and I've got plenty. Pm me if you want me to mail it to you. Quote Link to post
