Concrete Statue Beaver - Part 2 - Making a fiberglass shell and the first duplicated statue
The latex rubber mold for a statue will need support to hold its shape from wet concrete. Sand in a box or bucket is a cheap method, but sand is time consuming and unpredictable for retaining the full figure. The best and preferred method is to build a fiberglass shell, a mother-mold that will allow the concrete to set in the latex and cure. This is the second video in the 2-part series on a complete duplication of a statue. Watching how to duplicate and make a garden statue mold will teach you the steps to this amazing project.
