I went back to California for a couple of day and had the chance to meet up with my caster. He has cleared away the 3000 pounds of clay and the underlying armature. Now all that remains in the studio is the beautiful polyurethane rubber mold sitting inside the plaster mother mold. In the first photo below you can see that he has started adding shims along the seem lines in preparation for adding the first layer of resin to a section. We discussed what type of resin he should use, polyester or epoxy, and we agreed that he would send me some samples.
