Learn how to mold an articulated monster mask with Patrick Magee, FX artist & founder of Magee FX: bit.ly/ArticulatedMaskPt2YT

In Part 2 of the Articulated Monster Masks Making course series, Patrick Magee guides you through his mask-molding process, from breaking down and sealing the WED clay sculpture to creating two-piece Ultracal 30 stone molds for the ears, and finally crafting a durable Bondo & fiberglass face mold.

Along the way, Magee shares a wealth of tips for capturing every form and detail of your mask sculptures, ensuring the finished mask looks, fits, and moves as well as possible.

You will learn step-by-step everything about making a plaster and fiberglass mold, including:
- Tools and materials needed to create an Ultracal 30 stone and fiberglass mold
- How to remove parts (in this case, the ears) from the sculpture and prep them for #molding
- How to build, smooth, refine, and seal dividing walls
- How to layer plaster and burlap to create a strong stone mold
- How to safely open and clean the finished stone mold
- Everything about Bondo Resin, Polyester Resin, and Catalysts
- How to properly layer fiberglass and resin
- How to sand and trim the cured fiberglass mold
