Dinosaurs

Styrofoam Hand Dinosaurs

Jesse Duke

My name is Jesse Duke, a senior sculpture major at the University of West Georgia. I have recently found hot wire tools and foam to be a great asset in sculpture fabrication. The speed in which a piece can be worked out has been helpful in my work making for quick masters for metal and other casting.

Thus far I have used Styoplast exclusively for coating my pieces but I look forward to trying out the other products Hot Wire Foam Factory offers!

Step 1: Roughing out the glued up block with Sculpting Tool

Step 2: More carving and rasping.

Step 3: Sanding

Step 4: Styroplast applied, sanded, and primed.

Step 5: Paint

Step 6: Repeat for 2nd dinosaur.

Step 7: Display and enjoy!

Suggested tools/materials for this project:
