Description Here's another Ebony Visions sculpt I did a few months ago.
This was one of the more difficult ones to engineer. It comes apart at different places like most the sculpts I do to make it possible to mold, cast and paint for production. I think ther were about 11 different pieces.

All your work is magnificent, but the ones that hit me in the heart are the people in there everyday life. Time with there family, children, work, their lives continue forever in your work. Never to be forgotten. All your work is my favorite. Not enough room to store in my favorites. Better to visit your gallery and enjoy them and the new ones that you upload.

I'm quite at the begining but i also make a lot of miniature building ,kind of like lilliput lane, i use from Prchimica, a special clay called Degas(hard one) anyway i would truly apreciate a good advice, when you make the mould(mold) what kind of silicone you use and how exactly do you get rid of all the air bubbles...thats my nightmare...(( there are always some left in the silicone mould.thank you so so much for your time! your work is just....perfect! never seen an artist taking hiw work to such a perfection!

Wow Mark, I must have missed this one when I looked at your gallery last! Sheesh! I really love this one! You really captured the love for one another in their faces and body language. You did a wonderful job even though it "was one of the more difficult ones to engineer". Like most all of your work, it is stunning! :0)

RPBennett [2008-09-27 06:14:25 +0000 UTC]

Great work once again. I'd love to see how you go about separating your sculpts for production.

People have a hard time understanding what i mean when i tell them a sculpt had to be "keyed properly" or "His head is removable." Sometimes it makes the rendering of isolated areas easier to get to, but mostly i just hate having to deal with that crap. It slows everything down. Like you say "It feels like work" at that point.

What primer are you using? Someone recommended tamiya primer but i havent tried that yet. I'd love to try and get a good primer for an airbrush.

Is there a reason why you prime before the molding? Because i would think that even a light coat would add just enough thickness to muddle some of the finer details.

One more time, truly inspirational work. Thanks for your time.
