This video shows an alternative to urethane molds. If you are on a tight budget or can't get casting urethane products where you live than this is a great option for you.

Fiberglass resin and Bondo putty are used in low budget effects houses in LA for creating cheap but high quality molds.

We are going to show you how to use inexpensive and available products found at most Home Depot and Lowes stores.

This video is an addition to the Creating Elf Ears videos.
