　　If you want to "take a mold from the human body", what you will do is lifecasting (or life casting). Being one of the Wholesale Rolling Bearing oldest art forms, the concept of making body molds has been seen in Egyptian artisans where they used gypsum and linen or papyrus as materials. Often, some artistic purists find the art of lifecasting as nothing more than just copying. However, it is not so much as simple duplication as it sounds. What the artist does with the model, how he casts it, poses it, and shades it can create a story in itself. The craftsmanship is the crux of the idea. It involves a whole blend of the skill set including that of a painter, sculptor and the eye of a photographer. Creating a realistic preservation of the dimensional visualization is whatlife castingis about. Understanding Alginates: For skilled casting of the human body, it is imperative to know about alginates. Since it already has a safe mark of being used as a dental impression material, the use of alginate became increasingly popular in prosthetic production. The set time for prosthetic grade cream can be controlled by the water temperature and the thickness of the alginate mix.

It follows the fact where higher water temperature speeds the set time, just as a thicker mixture does. The opposite is also true, the cooler the water or thinner the mix, the slower the set time. The Fundamentals of Life Casting There are two major ways of creating full body molds - The alginate is placed in a container (matrix) and the body part is inserted and removed after the alginate is cured. This is often done with body parts such as hands, foot, fingers. For the larger body parts, alginate is applied directly to the targeted area and reinforced with bandages or plaster to secure (matrix). The cover is referred to as shell or mother mold. Alginate such as MoldGel or FiberGel are preferably used for such life casts as an alternative, skin safe silicones such as Life-Rite is also used which allows to create multiple casts from a single mold. Completing a Face Mold Every part of the body needs some special attention when you have to create a mold from it. Before completing a face mold, it is important to protect the hair so the alginate does not tangle it. Sometimes, artists apply MoldEZ, which is a hair release that prevents the alginate from entangling to the alginate.

It is applied by hand starting from the top of the head and is pulled downwards. The last touch up is the nose which needs utmost care from preventing the material entering the nostrils. Apply one thin coat firmly for any other parts than the face. The removal procedure is straight forward. Larger molds generally just lift off from the body. For the face molds, sit up and lean forward for the mold to drop off. And, you are ready to pour the casting to finish the life casting! In full body life casting, hands, feet, face, breast and the groin area are generally cast using the alginate method to make the intricate details. Legs, arms, back, back of the head and the other parts are molded using plaster bandages. The casting material id then poured through the holes made in the mold.
