[@Nikolayevsk]

[@TomSpinaDesigns]

Happy to do so for folks who appreciate what we make :)

[@JudiChristopher]

WOW... FANTASTIC... WOW

[@JudiChristopher]

Were the Glasses also made out of Foam?

[@TomSpinaDesigns]

Those were made from acrylic and plastic

[@chrishuxhold5271]

Now that is awesome. Lady Liberty rules.

[@TomSpinaDesigns]

thanks! She sure does :)

[@davidleslie1963]

You are my heroes....I would love to do this kind of work. At least I get to work with Disney doing Stained Glass for the Galleries.

[@TomSpinaDesigns]

Thank you so much we really appreciate that! What a nice thing to say :-) Making stained glass and working with Disney that sounds amazing too!! Thanks again Next time we see some stained glass we will have to take a few extra moments to appreciate all the work that goes into it :-)

I'll ask it then. What did you use as a hard protective coating? I see all these 2 part coatings that promise a bullet proof coating. But they cost about ten times what the damn foam costs!

[@TomSpinaDesigns]

For this one we used a polyurea, though these days we often use Smooth-On styrocoat. Simple cartridge sprayer and relatively low cost on the material side.

[@filmsinfocus]

Wow, how cool is that! What happins to it after the event?

[@TomSpinaDesigns]

Thank you! We had a lot of fun working on her. That is up to the Governors Ball coordinators, perhaps we will see her in future festivals!

[@gordontarpley]

Awesome work, as per usual. I want to help with one of these projects. I know it's the other side of the country but if you have to build anything in LA in the next few months, keep me in mind. ;)

[@TomSpinaDesigns]

Thankya, Gordon!

[@annphillips8651]

I can’t believe you give it sunglasses

[@junepegram6004]

beyond impressive.. What do you seal your polystyrene with?

[@TomSpinaDesigns]

Hello June, Thank you for watching, we really appreciate your kind words. We used a Polyurthene spray cost for this one.

[@junepegram6004]

TomSpinaDesigns Do you find it hold up to weather mostly rain and sun?

[@TomSpinaDesigns]

June Pegram So far its held up pretty well from our perspective.

[@junepegram6004]

TomSpinaDesigns Thank you for your answers, I have had problems with yellowing in the past. So I see you used some sort of primer, are you willing to share that medium? I recently used StyroSpray 1000 but the smell was crazy strong.

[@TomSpinaDesigns]

June Pegram What you're seeing is probably the spray coat, we haven't used StyroSpray but for any coating like that ventilation and respirator are clearly a must.

[@JG-no4qr]

Is this styrofoam? How does it get properly disposed of without harming the environment?!

[@paulxu1622]

Why the Statue of Liberty is not finished

[@Lulu11457]

It’s because that it wouldn’t take a long time

[@noversibirsk]

how much did all this foam cost? everywhere i look it is so expensive. the sculpture i want to make will cost me $33,000 for the foam alone, is there a cheap place to get foam?

[@TomSpinaDesigns]

Look for EPS suppliers, but indeed, foam isn't cheap (especially not shipping around giant blocks of it!)

[@noversibirsk]

Thank you

[@andyaguilar6278]

TomSpinaDesigns do you think you can buy little pieces and do a small lady liberty

[@wolfgamer615]

Make the mount rushmore

[@TomSpinaDesigns]

If someone commissioned it we would absolutely love to make that!

[@SFSguy]

What’s the white parts made of

[@RegalRobot]

EPS foam... similar to styrofoam, but then hardcoated with polyurea resin for a durable shell

[@chocokkeith]

I Like Statue Of Statue Of Liberty S🗽

[@supergogetiomatias6806]

[@TomSpinaDesigns]

Thank you!

[@Megan先生]

Is that copper

[@TomSpinaDesigns]

no, it's all hand carved foam with a hardcoating of resin and hand paint to look like aged copper

[@mansourehlajewardi2070]
