Casting a clay figure: casting in wax

Painting wax on each part of the mould first to build up layers; then putting the mould together and pouring a few ‘joining’ layers to combine the two parts.

Some of the wax leaked out of the mould, but I like the ‘mohican’ effect, this part of him is incredibly fragile though.
