Next Face Mould

After my previous face mould that I tried to add ice too proved to be unsuccessful, I decided to make another one; however this time, I didn't add ice and I didn't use myself. I felt extremely uncomfortable having the dental alginate on my face, so I chose to use one of my friends instead. 

This time, I was doing this face mould so that I could then add plaster into it, to get another mould from this one. 

These were my results of the dental alginate face mould:

I added mod-rock on the top of the dental alginate face mould to reinforce the dental alginate and hold the shape, ensuring that it didn't stretch. This worked as I expected, as you can see the face mould didn't stretch or change shape.

So I used dental alginate for the face mould and once that was set, I then added plaster of paris on top of it to act as an extra layer of support once i'd lifted it off the face. Once this was done, I left the plaster to set and I then carefully removed the mould from the model's face. 

The mould worked amazingly, again! The detail was just incredible that it had picked up and I was over the moon with it. 

The extra pieces at the bottom were just parts that were left over my the previous attempt with me, as I took the mould off as I was uncomfortable! After we did this, we then added plaster into the mould and my next blog post will show you what we did.
