yo.

so, i've sculpted the form from blue foam. it's much more sleek now,
and the organic style creates flow.

now i need to apply the plaster polymer coatings to turn my soft model
to a hard model. this is achieved by painting layers and sanding in
between to preserve the form. then i can prime and paint.

i have purchased a "chrome" plating paint to use. this is highly
reflective and thus i will need to prepare the surface with extra care
to ensure no impurities arise.

It looks like you are up to your old tricks again, this plaster stuff you speak of, how thick are you planning on it being? Will that thickness take away from your form or have you sanded more off your blue foam model. Also i think the rounded head is a nice touch, sort of like a pair of twos when everyone else has full houses, because only a design like this can make your house truly full. Also does it happen to crush red bull cans in its spare time??? I didnt even know shower heads needed to work......

This my friend is an adventure in itself......up up and away!!!!!

Looks good so far, I think the hardest part will be tyring to get the chrome paint to work. The surface will have to be ultra smooth and all the surfaces even otherwise it wont turn up too good. Mine's also chrome so i think im going to have the same problem.
