Is he on a pivot so he rocks back and forth on the ocean? :wink: Can you give a little more information on "dry stone cast on wood" cause I have no idea what that is, and you know me I like to learn the nuts and bolts of how pieces are made. Hey Tigertail! First I sculpted the Tangaroa, out of Super Sculpey. I then made a urethane mold of the sculpt and made a Dry Stone cast from that. Dry Stone is a gypsum, feels kind of like plaster I guess. I then painted the cast and the piece of wood he's mounted on.
