GODZILLA 2014 statue final

These are final products of the painted statues. One in left is faux bronze painted, one in right is color painted.

For faux bronze painted statue, I applied matt black spray paint to the statue, then I sprayed clear spray to protect first coat. After that I painted metal paint color using a chip brush and rubbed by a finger. After finished metal paint, I spattered black, brown and fresh colors mixing with naphtha to create more   

vintage bronze look. Finally I sprayed matt clear spray for the finishing.

For color painted piece, I painted with almost all spattering technique. And I use thinned  black oil paint for painting small detail to make them clear.

I started painting on the statue. First I sprayed with gray car primer. Then, I painted base colors. I basically mixed black, white and yellow for the head, neck and base. I just mixed different ratio of paints each sections.

After the base coat, I spattered with thinned red, blue and yellow(as known as three basic colors) using chopped chip brush. I also spattered some brown and color for the neck to make it more natural look translation between where the colors separates.

I finally casted several pieces of the Godzilla statue. They turned out way better than test casting.

Here are some photos that I took. I like the view from top very much.

The clay sculpture was molded two parts mold. First, I started to build up clay wall to separate in half. Then I applied silicone over the mold.

After silicone part, I made Hydrocal shell.

I did test casting using casting resin. The result wasn't good enough for what I wanted.

There are many micro air bubbles on a surface of the statue, and resin didn't go in to some spots.   

In this picture,  you can see the spots where resin didn't go in.
