Chocolate cast




Originally I was going to cast in chocolate but was unable to because my mold did not work. However I did experiment with it. I must admit I prefered the results with the plaster cast but I think had I been able to make another gel flex mold of the larger barbie and then cast that in chocolate I would have really liked to have submitted that as my final piece.

Because Barbie's waist it so small, it is really fragile and unstable when being taken out of the mold so it kept breaking which was frustrating. I think for the smaller pieces it looked quite effective however, and added to the distorted effect.
