here's the original from the movie;

there's actually a little guy being squashed (or being born?) under the main figure I never noticed before until I started making it

you seem to have done an excellen job on the eyes. Let us all know how it turns out.

Also - instead of giving the idol to your nephew, I'm sure he'd learn a lot more if you hid it in a cave and set booby traps up all around it... if he lives he'll thank you for it. Trust me.

# looks amazing!
Can i suggest you take a plaster mold of the finished article and then you can bash out resin copies. You could then spray these gold and ebay the buggers!

12. Profit!

# silicone mould
you'd never get resin out of plaster.

also nicely modelled mr goat.

# If I make a mold
I'm not sure I could get it over it's head - it gets really narrow at the neck

I notice some models have a seam through them maybe thats how they get over it

# it's quite suprising how flexible silicone is
but looking at it, you're probably going to have to make a 2 part mould which if you haven't done it before isn't as tricky as it seems, although as your original is in plasticine you may run into a few problems. loads of 'how to's' on google.

given the number of undercuts silicone is really the best way forward unless you really want to be making multi part plaster moulds.

edit/ thinking about it plastacine may actually work to your advantage, any seams left on your finished plaster/resin cast can easily be filled or sanded off and then painted or leafed.
