The Sculptors' Place
Helping sculptors unleash their talents.   Realizing your potential is easy when you have the proper tools and materials with which to do it.

Sculpture is the art of creation in three dimensions. Imagination,  the connection to worlds beyond our physical landscape, allows us to express this creativity. Our goal is to give you the tools and knowledge to bring forth what is within you. W e have chosen the best of what the sculpture world has to offer. Let your imagination soar with the fine sculpture tools, materials and information that we offer.

The Chimera - Part lion, part serpent, part goat.  When these powerful, regal, beasts inhabited the ancient world, the classical age of sculpture was blossoming forth with a richness of creativity unfathomed by  dark age artisans.   What wonders lie dormant within the clay, wax, bronze  and minds of sculptors of this millennium?

The latex mold on the left was used to make this plaster lamp base. It's a mold from a commercial lamp factory made of Cementex #80.   Twenty four coats of rubber were applied to create a tough and long lasting mold that would hold up to the rigors of industrial use. The latex mold has a foam back up shell (not shown).

A non hardening  modeling material, Roma Plastilina is smooth and holds it's shape (not springy or sticky like some materials). Roma is popular with schools, industry, sculptors and model makers the world over.  It is easily worked by hand and takes detail very well. The professional's choice it comes in four grades of firmness. This is the plastiline that you need for your model in the Dan Does It Work at Home project. Grade #1 or #2 would be the most likely choice for that project. Plastilina comes in 2 lb. blocks. The hedgehog  here took 2 blocks. Estimate your needs and place your order..

#1 - Soft - Extremely pliable. For when you need to work quickly or for very large sculptures. I use the #1 in the winter in my unheated shop.

#2 - Medium -Slightly firmer than #1. This would be a good choice for an object the size of the hedgehog project or for busts and figures. The standard.
