Resin Testing Continued

A little more experimenting with resin whilst doing other bits and bobs. I wanted to see how it reacts to sculpey after I'd tried plasticine, so figured I'd remake my plaster hand moulds in something a bit more sturdy. It turned out reasonably well, but I'm having some problem with the latex setting in the moulds, but that could be any number of things, so we'll see how that goes for now.

    Mate you tried using a wax realise spray on the resin or is the latex just not setting right.

    Yeah I'm using good old vaseline as a release agent, and it seem to work nicely with it so far, but when it comes to actually casting the latex it just wont seem to set. It could be the latex though so I'll have to see.
