Plastik Surgery Handbook – Level 2

The split-tooling silicone moulding method.
Written and Illustrated by Matt Jones.

Seasoned expert Matt Jones from Lunartik.com has playfully illustrated this step-by-step guide covering the entire process of producing a Split-Silicone rubber mould. This guide shows you how to make hand-cast resin figures and prototypes, using a mixture of Super Sculpey clay, silicone rubber moulds and liquid resins. The outcome of this process will be producing your very own series of limited edition figures to paint, sell and exhibit.

This handbook covers the entire process from concept to completion. We start with 2D hand drawn sketches, then we suggest using CAD packages to make some simple technical drawings of the design with dimensions that we can print out. We follow this by hand making a set of 3D models built with children’s clay to get a sense of scale, helping us refine design details. We move to produce a Super Sculpey clay master model which we will oven bake, clean up, spray with primer and finish to a high standard. From here we will produce our first split-silicone rubber mould, and proceed to pouring our first resin casts.
