I really need to try this method. Thank you.
As far as silicone molds go, brush on molds are the cheapest option as silicone is pretty expensive. It just takes more time.
That’s pretty cool
Very cool
Looking good
Thanks 👍
What about when you want to include the lower jaw?
I made a block mold for the lower jaw. It is nice that they are separate, because I can glue the jaw in any position I want. Here is the tutorial link for the lower jaw: th-cam.com/video/xUkpvxIot2g/w-d-xo.html
That was a good info video on how to make the mold but what was the total cost if u have 2 buy everything from start 2 finish of the project and where is the best place 2 buy all the stuff 2 make the molding material's? Thxs
There is definitely an investment if you plan to make silicone molds. The silicone that I recommend is the brushable silicone from Smooth-On. It costs around $75 for the trial kit and you will want to use almost all of the silicone that comes in the kit for this mold. I don't recall how much the plaster strips cost me but I would guess it's around 5-10 dollars for the amount used on the support shell. I bought the plaster strips on Amazon.
@@GRUNGEHaunts thxs 4 the reply
Awesome video! Thank you!
Do you have a video on how you mold the bottom jaw? Also, is it a resin skull that you bought off Amazon?
Yes, the skull was a resin skull that I purchased on Amazon. I am planning a tutorial on how to make the bottom jaw in a block mold.
@@GRUNGEHaunts can’t wait to see it. Would you be able to provide the link to the skull that you purchased? It’s really realistic looking thank you for replying.
How long did you let the skull dry before taking it out of the mold? This looks so good!
The full skull needs at least 6 hours to cure and sometimes longer. The half skulls usually cure in 1 to 2 hours as they are exposed to air/moisture. I have another video that shows you how to cast Loctite in these silicone molds. When you remove the plaster shell, gently squeeze the skull. If it is still squishy, you need to wait longer.
Skull good
Was the Vaseline used in between the silicone and plaster layers?
No, plaster will not stick to the silicone. However, it will stick to itself, so when you make the second shell, make sure you put vaseline on the break line.
Hey, is there a reason the skulls don’t have a bottom jaw? Is it just for aesthetic or to do with casting?
I have a separate block mold for the lower jaw. I would not be able to make a 1 piece glove mold with the lower jaw attached to the master, it would have to be a 2 piece mold. Also, the skull would then be static with whatever jaw pose you had on your master. With a separate mold for the lower jaw I can pose the skull with closed or open mouth.
do you do the same with the bottom jaw ? Ive seen ahead of this video that you have bottom jaws seperate
For the bottom jaw I use a block mold, it just wouldn't work with a glove mold. I plan to make a block mold tutorial in the future.
@@GRUNGEHaunts ya that makes sense.. be cool to do a tutorial on it. Appreciate the reply :) Love watching your videos !!
Maybe a stupid question but can you use silicone caulking
I have seen silicone caulking used for very small impression molds. I do not recommend it for this type of mold. You would probably spend the same amount of money or more using caulking for the skull and it most likely wouldn't work properly.
@@GRUNGEHaunts alright..thanks
What were the keys made from?
The keys were cut out of leftover silicone from a previous project. Silicone sticks to silicone. you can get key trays from BITY mold supply and make your own keys that way also.
