A Piece of My Mind: useful links concerning moulds and casting

just a list of useful websites I've been to and will to refer to..

http://www.smooth-on.com/Sculpture-and-Art-/c1239/index.html
web site that has a list of materials and videos of the casting processes.

Throughout my adventures with sculpting clay, I was consciously aware that i thought a lot about how to make a cast of it. In particular, bronze casting. Even if I am unable to get access to a foundry, I wanted to know how it was done and maybe it could explain a little more about casting processes.
I found this link useful -
http://www.modernsculpture.com/bronze.htm

Was recommended this site by a friend.
This is a great site for materials with a 'How to' section. It's more concerning special effects prosthetics, than actual sculpting, still a good site to refer to concerning silicones and rubber.

Poignant quotations

"It's amazing how something so simple can bring so much happiness to the right people in the right frame of mind"

~ Luisa Cocozza on reflection of her Panto experience.

"You have to be able - you have to have made the commitment within yourself to do whatever it takes to get the job done and to try to inspire other people to do it, because obviously the first rule is you can't do it by yourself."

~ James Cameron

"As an artist for arts sake, I have my own sculptures that I do for myself that I can spend as much time as I want on. Part of the creative challenge of this business is to go 'you know what, I've got this much money and this much time to do this job. I will do the best I can within those parameters.' That's what being a professional is. That's not art for art's sake. This is the motion picture business. If you only do stuff that you have all the time and money to do, you would never work in this business."

~ Stan Winston. (1946 - 2008)

It's a job that's never started that takes the longest to finish.
~ J. R. R. Tolkien (1892 - 1973)

"Individual science fiction stories may seem as trivial as ever to the blinder critics and philosophers of today -- but the core of science fiction, its essence has become crucial to our salvation if we are to be saved at all."

~ Isaac Asimov (1920 - 1992)
