[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 792053, member: 325666"] Early days yet ...and the weather ain't helping .. Having decided to return to my original idea of papier mache .. The first layer went on yesterday ..and barely managed to dry before ..the rain came .. Covered as best I could overnight with a plastic sheet ....and subjected to yet more rain this morning .. Anothe coat of thinned pva glue ..and a hairdryer later ..I started fitting structure ribs ..again in paper .. If this actually works ..then the cast in paper will be removed ..and the reverse side then built up in fibre glass mat and resin ..and the front side in resin and fine beads .. sanded down smooth ..waxed and mould release applied .. Hopefully this will then be the completed reverse mould ...and I can start to make the actual petal extensions .. ..at the moment my hands are freezing and I'm typing with one finger ... This afternoon ..I shall be entreating the gods to refrain from 'p1ssing' on my work.. rgds VS [/QUOTE]
