Frameworks and methodologies...and LAVA!
🕑 Added 2022-02-24 13:31:42 +0000 UTCHi Guys!
So as many of you have surmised from the last post the next project is indeed more LAVA! Lava rivers and lakes to be precise, the idea being one bank/the smaller corners will be removable, allowing a T junction to serve as a single bank piece at a lakes edge, double bank piece in a 'river' or even as a half-T junction where a flow meets a lake in a corner.
So in theory, you can use these pieces to make most flat lava shapes! Lava falls and even downhill flows are planned for the future too :)
What you can see in the image is one sample of what I've been working on - the bank frameworks. Similar methodology to the lava tiles in the last video, but I've improved it a little this time by switching around the work flow, planning and painting the plaster placement primarily (couldnt help myself 😂) and THEN adding the clay around it.
Another nice addition to the method is although mainly using tacky glue, using small amounts of hot glue when needed to hold things in place with a fast bond. The tacky glue will hold in the oven, the hot glue gives us a working hold faster :)
The eagle eyed among you may have noticed the plaster cast bits are closer to the lava than previously - this is intentional. Last time they were a bit far up the bank for my liking and seperated by the pumice effect clay. We'll see how this turns out!
Also got some rockier plaster overhangs planned this time to add a bit of variety...they're sat curing in the moulds as we speak :)
Hope to have more for you guys soon, and I hope you're all having a good (or a least bearable!) week! Catch you all soon...
