BTW, with the title of this blog I'm left to ask, how good a mold MAKER are you? There is a task on my horizon where a steady mold hand might be needed....and I am certainly not such a one.
You're going to have that in the hands of a foundry. That one I met you at. I have never taken on a 7 foot statue. All my molds are no bigger than a shoebox. Definitely foundry work where they have volume buys on the expensive RTV silicone.
I did get the business card of a premier maquette moldmaker I met at the CTN festival a couple of monthas ago. His name is Doug Hild. A legend as a moldmaker to the animation industry. hildstudios.com

Thanks El--I was thinking of a much smaller project than a 7' bronze. Something we could handle--just making a mold of a car part.
