Other than that I would love to see the final outcome.Studio Bosses Join Today's WGA & AMPTP Talks Sarandos, Iger, Langley & Zaslav In The Room, But No Gavin Newsom If you are laying in burlap to hold the plaster bandages to the alginate then also don't forget to lay a strip between the breasts for added security. Women have hair on their chest it is very fine but it is there and can rip out the same as eyebrows!!!! Remember they have to be comfortable if you want them to ever do another mold for you? After that just do a mold the same as a face mold. If the models breast is very soft then I would recommend that you have her lay on her back to do the mold. Go slowly and you will see how much give is in the area you are molding. The side of your hand pressing down like you were wiping something off. You don't have to press hard or use your full hand. ![]() The first thing I do is test the area by pressing on the top part of the breast seeing how much it stretches. The alginate is heavy and will weigh on the breast giving you a distorted look to the final outcome. Some women you could pose them with their arms in the air or out to the side, some you have to get them to lay down to get a proper mold. I have done breast molds but each one is different. Basically you will have to try a few different poses through trial and error. ![]() With this method you will have the breasts go to the sides and might not look right. Other than that you might have to try laying the person down on a table or floor to do the mold. ![]() If you are lucky enough to find some one that can have their arms by their side and not have any droopage then you have found a one in a million. Some models you can have with their arms proped up with two chairs. This will give you an idea of how much stretch you will have when applying the alginate. Have your subject raise their arms above their head and gently press down on the top of the breast. As for the different poses you will have to practice this part before doing the cast. This added support allows the bandages to form to the curve of the breast giving you more real look and not short changing the subject of their true body shape. If you want to do a full mold of a womans chest there are several ways to do it but all of them require the alginate to be smeared on and placing bandages in a "old style I form" across the chest before applying the other plaster bandages are put on for the shell. Just observe each model and try various poses each time applying pressure downwards on each breast to make sure that is the position you want them. It is a tough job for you it is also a tough job for the model to suspend their arms in the air for that long as well. If you dont want a fold on the underside of the breast then having them put their hands above their head might help but remember to have someone help support their arms while you work. Position them and put a slight pressure on each breast and see how much give there is. Every chest mold for women is different some you have to have sitting some have their hands above their head. After it activates remove the person and fill it with plaster or wax to get your finished piece. Fill it with alginate and position them over the container. Some times it is able to work by making a container that the person can lean into or lie on top of. Some times just having them sit upright can work but remember that alginate is heavy and can stretch the skin of the breast. I have observed the person getting the mold done. If, during that point, the person being casted is already having difficulty supporting the rig him/herself, or can sense the support system failing, consider an alternate method of casting the part or just quickly reinforce the rig.) You should be able to get a sense of this when you are pouring the dermagel into the rig. If the rig that you are using to cast is big, and requires a large quantity of dermagel, plan to be able to properly support it, or else risk 1: the tape/support system ripping off/breaking and the rig tearing off before the dermagel has time to harden, 2: the rig shifting during the hardening process, and the outcome of the mold ruined. (It is important to note that if you plan to attach the rig to a part, dermagel gets heavier and expands as it hardens. When the time comes, slowly remove the tape and peel the mold away. If it is solid, give it a few more minutes to be on the safe side. In about 15 minutes, touch the top of the dermagel and see if it is solid. ![]() Once all of it has been poured and/or it is filled to the top, sit and wait. Slowly and steadily pour your mixture into the rig.
