Ola again
Thanks for the replies guys (and girls if there're any)
I will try to answer your questions below:
Triturian: Yeah I made a mold to make the construction faster, the whole piece has around 800 stones, so making each one by hand would mean madness:) They are glued together using PVA glue nothing more, I might fill bigger holes with some wall filler. If you look closely you will see arrow slits in the 2/3 of the bottom piece hight.
jack: it's really time consuming, might be boring and I don't think I will do anything like this anymore, I might try making something smaller, or casting a small wall panel to make things faster.
Marcus: Your tower is also amazing mate:) I create my stones using small dental plaster casts and a rock. I press the rock against the surface of the cast to add texture to it. Pretty simple, effective but can take some time.
PygmyHippo: For making stones check above. As for the mold, it's not so easy. I mean it is easy to make, but when handling big objects like this, you need a lot of RTV silicone to make a mold. I thought about making a brush-on mold, but it is also a bit expensive. Plus I'm a bit scared that I might destroy this piece when making a mold, rubber might stick really easily because the original piece is out of plaster and is porous. I'm still trying to find a professional who might do this for me.
lack0fbettername: check somewhere above for the description.
bloodbawler: that's what I was aming for, to recreate a real stone look, glad you like it:)
Again thanks a lot for your kind words people:)
I will post some new photos soon.
Cheers,
