Hello!

It's been a long time now and that's because I'm busy like hell! The puppets are curing right now and that gives me some time to post this. It's the first time I'm using Dragon Skin, the silicone that was used on Corpse Bride, and that makes everything a bit more exciting. I used to use regular silicone for the bodyparts, but it wasn't very strong and broke up in no time. So, I thought: "Let's use professional material this time and it will have to work!". We'll see.
One thing I can recommend everyone who makes moulds is: Crystacast. This resin-plaster is:-Very Fine (takes all the details), Very Hard and the best of all; the airbubbles all escape from themselves! No more knokking on the moulds, no more thrilling plates, no more vacuum devices. As far as I know that's a unique quality for plaster. :)











These are the book-shelves that will go up the wall in Adam's room.





Here are a few of the drawings that will fill the walls in Adam's room. I'll only need some 100 more. (they are the size of stamps)










Here are Alta and Adam, ready for their rebirth. At the moment the heads are finished and have replacement-faces. The heads got a Styrofoam core (to be light) and an Epoxy skin (to be hard). I'll soon post some pics .


Experience has learned me one very important thing: "If you want to make it a professional way, the costs will be professional too!". And if you start the production on a certain level, you 've got to continue on that level. There's almost no way back...

See You Soon!
