the astronaut is such a cute and well-designed little puppet! the 4 fingers are very endearing :)

For anyone else reading, the Brown clay is a Sulfur-free Plasticine and is used to create the original model. The seafoam green is Newplast and is suppose to not stick too much to the model. Thanks Edu!

Ed, I like how you are not afraid to show your failures. I've never learned anything by things going as expected. It's only when things go wrong that the gears in the head start spinning.

+john jones really true, why to skip the best part... The troubles, well provably easier but I am not an expert and I am more confortable telling the truth

Damn! Where has this channel been all my life?

Great tutorial. The puppets I make are very cheap by comparison. I bend wire and foil for the skeletons, regular modeling clay for what's covered up, plasticina for stuff like the heads, feet and hands, painted beads for the eyes, oven bake clay for stuff like teeth, props, etc. I've only recently begun to create molds for my newest idea, a fantasy adventure with a rag tag group on the run from bounty hunters while finding an infant.

I loved this! Thanks for sharing even the part where you "failed". Thats how we learn most!

You learn things every day, specially when something goes wrong.

Me [9 PM]: Okay! School starts tomorrow! I'll have a good rest and I'll wake up full of energy! My brain [11:30 PM]: Is LEGO good for mouldmaking?

Interesting attempt ! Learning from the first failure I would have tried this : 1 Use the latex as a first layer in your open mold, applied using a brush as you did, 2 put your wire, 3 close the mold and fill it with silicon ! That way silicon will not stick to the mold, and you can easily color your outer-layer in latex (you can color silicon but it's not easy). I think it will be easier and less messy (latex is always such a mess and it stink!). I use the Lego trick too, it's very useful, so here another tip : if you want to use less expensive silicon, cut old used molds into pieces and add it to your fresh silicon, that way if you make a big mold you use less fresh product. You can also add foam pieces to make it less rigid and easier to open, it won't affect the solidity of the mold :) Less waste, more silicon, more molds ! Great job, I really enjoy your videos, big thanks and keep going !

latex really dries, so what happens is, that water is drawn from the latex. in the air it would evaporate. what also works really well is a plaster mold. the plaster kind of "sucks" the water from the latex.

This is just the kind of channel I was looking for to branch out of my prop making! I always learn more from mistakes and I love that you made a point to talk about that!

Hey, Edu. I used to work for a model making company that worked with resin. They used a vacuum chamber to remove bubbles. I reckon it'd be possible to rig up some high powered motor and piston arrangement, with a one way pressure valve, to remove air more effectively. Might be worth trying to rig something up.

Nice experimenting. You need to use a good medium hardness plaster for your mold next time, and leave your latex filled mold somewhere with pretty warm circulating air. You will get the best results from this PLUS it's way cheaper than silicone. Or you can cast a high flexibility polyurethane rubber in a silicone mold. Good luck.

Hola Edu, Muchas gracias por tus videos, son geniales!

Yo también te hubiera recomendado usar Escayola de Dentista y Dragon Skin para el positivo, el único problema de la silicona suele ser el precio, y los problemas para reparar y pintar, lo cual no es un problema para el Latex. Bueno, de todo se aprende! Por cierto muy buen uso del brazo mágico para sujetar el ventilador...xD Un Saludo!

@edupuertasfruns

as shown in the video, it is not a good idea to use latex inside a mould, latex in it's natural shape is more liquid than the shown in the video but it does not cure inside without air. So I would suggest you to use silicone. This was an experiment. with time that parts are much harder than when it was made. Silicone would be the right material for something like this.

@AliSsssDTA

6 жыл бұрын

But you can’t fill with silicon in a silicon mold, you can ? I put the latex step by step in both halves of the mold. Then for the last layer, I join both parts of the mold. The drying is faster like that. But I use plaster molds. Tomorrow I will try with silicon in plaster mold. Then in a silicon mold the technic to put latex in 2 halves...

Wow👏👏👏
