How to make Body Prosthetics

Episode 7:
Things are getting busy and the competition is now only a few weeks away.
In this episode i create the remaining body prosthetics. Watch how I take the pieces through the whole process from lifecasting and sculpting, through to molding and casting....
-------------
This July I will return to Austria to compete again at the World Bodyart Championship.
This year will be extra special as I invite you all to join me on the journey!
I will be filming my whole preparation process from brainstorming, sculpting, painting, through to the final design live on stage!
Each week I will be posting my progress on youtube where you'll be able to follow along as the project takes shape, as well as comment and ask any questions you may have :)

What type of clay did you use?

[@SofiaBue]

This was simply a white potters clay. Though there was no intention to fire it, potters clay is great for sculpting masks etc to be mouldes in plaster/stone. An alternative is WED clay, but that is a more expensive option though incredible nice to work with.

@@SofiaBue Wow never thought to use white potters clay in this way! I might try it! would also love to use WED in future. Thank you so much!
