Introducing the Half Ed Head Armature, the world’s first water fillable half head sculpting form from The Monster Makers. The Half Ed is a super light weight sculpting form designed to be the ultimate base for sculpting half masks. Completely reengineered and reimagined, Half Ed Head Armature is composed of a special, high-density plastic. This means it can withstand the rigors of mold making and years of continued use with little to no wear. Not only is this armature endlessly reusable, but Mold Making has never been easier.
Simply sculpt your character over the form and make your mold, and here is where the magic comes into play:
RAD (Radiant Assisted Demold) Technology™ provides an easy, built in clay release system. This dramatically aides in the demolding process for artists and mask makers using wax based clay mediums. Each RAD enhanced head form becomes, in effect, a hot water vessel which efficiently transfers radiant heat from inside the form to the surrounding clay causing a softening effect within the mold.
Moulds made over RAD enhanced forms can be demolded rapidly and without difficulty, resulting in a greatly improved mold-making experience. When you are ready to demold, simply turn the mold over with the bottom side up, unscrew the included inset bottle cap and fill the head form with hot water. Within minutes, radiant heat will begin to penetrate the clay and into the mold for the easiest demolding experience you’ve ever had. Say goodbye to broken or stuck head forms!
Half Ed Head Armature 2.0 is the sculpting armature you’ve been waiting for. Join the revolution and take your mask making to the next level!
