Spiderman resin cast


Resin cast pieces assembled using a combination of superglue and resin and wax to fill in the gaps.I'll leave it for a week to make sure its fully cured then I'll paint it up.

tms wax

Received my shipment of toxic mama wax yesterday.Its as hard as the blue wax I made but hopefully wont be as brittle and wont chip as much which is very annoying when your trying to carve fine details and a big chunk cracks off.No such problems with the wax I'm using for spiderman but its a bit soft especially in these summer months and I am using the freeze  spray I bought from Maplins alot.

Rough assembly






After working on all the separate parts I welded them all together and of course it takes alot of alteration to get it all working together as a whole.Legs are too short in relation to arms,feet look too small in relation to hands etc etc.I enjoy working on the separate parts, but that is one of the drawbacks.Perhaps thats part of the process or I need to work up the rough whole sculpt as much as possible before cutting it up to finish each individual part.Anyway I think I've got it working as a whole now.
