[QUOTE="Houseful, post: 4549990, member: 1067"]From the front pictures the child doesn’t appear to have a neck, the back of the neck anatomy looks a bit odd too. I’ve done quite a lot of resin casting and either you paint the inside of the mould with a thin coat of resin which could include a metal powder then you fill the rest of the mould with less expensive bulking stone powder mixed with resin.
