  A friend asked to see a few of my 3 part molds. She is just beginning to make molds and it can be a bit confusing as to where to put parting lines. Parting lines are where the mold pieces part from each other so you can take the prototype out. Sometimes a mold piece can get stuck on a part of the prototype and that's called an undercut.

About Me

My photo
I have studied painting and sculpture and still enjoy doing both though sculpting seems to have the dominant spot in my life right now. I have won Doll magazine's "Award of excellence" two years in a row 2013-2014, in the artist ball jointed doll category. I have also won "best of show" this past year at the Orlando Museum of Art.
