Applying color! Part 1 of 3 color application to turtles and frog statue
This video demonstrates experimenting with applying watered down acrylic paints for adding color over statues that have been base coated and contrasted (dry brushed).
Don’t like the watered down colors you apply? You can simply rinse off before dry and try others.
I find choosing 4-6 colors to work with and blend in areas works best
Practicing this method is fun and it’s easy to go over if you aren’t satisfied with results

How to make mold release for latex rubber molds

I recommend purchasing a high quality wide mouth spray bottle. Shake well prior to each use. Spray your latex molds just prior to pouring and then tip them over until ready to pour to prevent pooling of mold release. Pour concrete into molds, tap them out well to prevent air pockets (I use a rubber mallet).
