On this piece i have tested out the plain and simple wire wool, brass polish, with grate polish added on afterwards to darken sections. I think this was the best and closest brass finish effect. and i used this method on my final.
Here i was testing to see what the result would be if i mixed the metal powder with the fast cast, came out well, but wasn't as dark as the polyester resin.
First attempts to get a perfect cast, from these i learn that i needed to add more pour holes. the second attempt was perfect apart from a few minor air pockets
Here i tested how well i could drill through the resin. and how much pressure to use, successfully drilled all the way through, then vibrations shattered the end. When drilling final, attached to MDF to add support. Worked fine.
Molds- tryed to use as little silicone as possible.
