Skull Respirator: Finished Casting Stained

I have molded the fabricated skull, and have cast it hollow in cold cast aluminum so that it will fit over the nose and mouth.


Here is the casting after the preliminary polishing, along with the strap cut out of leather.

On the left is the same casting pictured above, and on the right is another one that has been stained black/brown. Once it is dry I will polish it and it will look like pewter.

Skull Respirator: First Casting

Once the silicone rubber mold was cured I cast the skull in a gray urethane resin.



Next I took the original plastic jaw and reshaped it so it would fit around the gear teeth.



Next I will fabricate the top of the skull, and figure out how best to punkify this skull so that it looks more mechanical.
