I have dedicated Easter to (chilling and) making these wax moon shape works so that I have an idea of what I'm doing when I go back. Originally I wanted to get hold of a toy model of a moon and cast it, so that it would have all the surface bumps as well as the connotations of it being an educational model. However, I genuinely could not find one of these anywhere to my surprise. I decided instead to buy some spherical plastic molds (or makeshift molds) to experiment with.
Although curious about the result, I'm not entirely. They're just a little underwhelming, perhaps because I need to practice the execution to get a neater join, or switch the colours up a bit. I think it is worth doing a few more experiments to see where it goes.
