ABOUT THIS WORKSHOP
In this workshop, expert model maker and prop artist Thom Wall will guide you through reproducing small parts in resin by moulding casting.
You will make a silicone mould of a small demonstration object and use this mould to then make plastic copies. This is a great technique to learn for making multiple copies of small parts, and to make plastic copies from masters in other materials. MAKLab's machines are ideal for quickly milling masters in wax or foam.
