Meet the Ankle-Biters!
Posted: Thu Apr 18, 2013 4:56:44 pmSo we had to make a multi-part mold for my mold-making class as a final project. Long story short....
Ankle-biters!!! They're about five inches high and full of beans. Literally: I put kideny beans in each one so they'd have some extra weight. The heads and feet are actually ceramic. They're made using a technique called slip-casting, which is what's used to mass-produce plates and cups.
Yes, I will be making more, hopefully out of bone china. ^^
Back row, left to right: Cerise, Zeb, Mia and Hemholtz
Front row, left to right: Salvatore, Achilles (he's mine!), Jerome and Francine
