“Bronze” Sculpture

Giant Flaming Cauldron Sculpture Carved From Foam

By Andy Tirado of Artworks

 

This was a fun project. The flaming cauldron was (of course) not real fire, though it fooled a lot of people. The cauldron was made from fiberglassing an exercise ball. The figure’s hands were made from wood so the connection between the cauldron and the figure would be rock solid, though after using your Foam Coat, I realized we could have gone with foam coated with your Foam Coat. The height of the display is 10.5 feet.
