Hi Marilyn

Nice work.!
yeah, Smooth-On BodyDouble is great stuff. I've been using it for
several years and did over 250 lifecasts with it, never failed me. And
believe me, I lifecast in almost ever condition, from cold
environments to extreme heat, this is where you work fast.
Take care

Guy

New Work:--
Hi all. Wanted to share my enthusiasm and work done with Smooth-on
products. This is a latex full head. I have been casting with
plaster gauze and plaster since 1990 but this was a new experience.
Body Double was used for the full head mold with a plaster gauze
support mold. Smooth-cast resin was used for the positive mold and
then Rebound and then latex. The final latex mask is attached. Since
this is my first experience with these materials I wanted to share the
results. What a great product to work with. We were so pleased with
the results. There is more work to be done but I wanted to share with
members. These materials are amazing!!!
