How To Make A Mold - The Silicone Stage

[@renatacruz4131]

Thank you so much for your instructions!! I've never heard about this kind of silicone here in Brazil for sculpture!! It's hard to learn alone and your help is so prescious! Thanks!

[@EirikArnesenArt]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ArtbySean.E]

You’ve been a huge inspiration for me. Your videos are super informative and your art just blows me away. Keep it up! It’s amazing content!

[@EirikArnesenArt]

Thank you! Will do!

Insane talent, wish I could do even remotely what you have achieved

[@EirikArnesenArt]

You can, practice and more practice my friend.

[@MiniaturenGalerie]

great video and nice insights! however, im sceptical about the sunflower-oil tip for gloves in the beginning. that sounst like sculpting release agent onto and into the first layer

[@EirikArnesenArt]

That's what I thought and why I don't do it on my personal work. However I have done it helping someone else make their mold and it didn't seem to be a problem.

I ran into your KZbin this week and I have to honestly say you are my favorite and that I greatly appreciate you sharing your beautiful pieces with us. They are just breathtaking! Would you be interested in doing a live stream I would love to follow along with you!? I am now and there aren't and sculpting classes in my area. Much love and creativity Dano

[@EirikArnesenArt]

For now, no, the studio is open and I share the space so I have to be conscious of the noise I make. Plus the internet is bad!

[@gavilanvj]

gracias!

[@EirikArnesenArt]

You are welcome!

[@tomhillan2429]

so talented! Do you have to coat the clay sculpture with a release agent such as vaseline before adding the silicone?

[@EirikArnesenArt]

No, silicone releases quite easily from the clay.

[@peterfurlong5]

Could you tell us about how much silicone you use for a project like this?

[@EirikArnesenArt]

This is probably right around 5 kg of silicone.

[@akeelartist765]

What is the correct way to prepare clay for sculpting

[@EirikArnesenArt]

I just take it out of the bag. No preparation needed. Most clays appropriate for sculpting are like this.

[@dteodora8043]

Great video as always!! Looking forward to seeing the next part. Would this technique and this type of silicone work well with oil based clay?

[@EirikArnesenArt]

Yes it will!

[@yousifdelvalle4162]

Thank you, thank you, thank you thank you!!!!!!

[@EirikArnesenArt]

Happy to help!

[@karinah4210]

Are you using oil based or water based clay?

[@EirikArnesenArt]

This is water-based clay but sometimes I used oil-based clay as well.

[@keeno7712]

Just came across your Channel. I'm 25, started to seriously draw this year with the goal of sculpting one year. I know i have a far road ahead of me, but eventually i will be able to sculpt. Do you think it is too late to start now? Great Channel

[@EirikArnesenArt]

Never to late to start! My suggestion is to just start sculpting as well as drawing. They go hand in hand and one will inform the other.

[@vfxforge]

I dont understand how you can demold with the large hole between the arm and body

[@EirikArnesenArt]

You will see, it's going to be very easy. I'll cut the silicone between the arm and the body, it will be like there is a silicone wall there, just like I'll have on the outside of the figure.

[@vfxforge]

@@EirikArnesenArt this is really great, thanks for sharing with us.

[@Dana-ty3in]

Hi, Eirik😊! How many kg of silicone did you use for this work ?

[@EirikArnesenArt]

Around 5 kg.
