Paper Mache Casting With Li Qua Che

Описание: I've used Li-Qua-Che before, a long time ago. I've been thinking about a few projects that would be fun to make, and they'd be perfect as paper mache castings, so I did a quick experiment to remind myself how this product works. The product is non-toxic and much safer to use than resin, and the molds are cheap. The paper mache castings are very lightweight and fun to paint - but they'd need to be supported with a wooden plaque or backed with a thin layer of paper mache clay. The gallon of Li Qua Che cost about $35. The plaster is cheap, and available in any hardware store.

If you make many copies of your sculpture, you'd want to use a stronger plaster. They make some specifically for potters, who use clay slip in plaster molds. The Li-Qua-Che works exactly the same way as clay slip, but you don't need a kiln (and it isn't waterproof).

The Li-Qua-Che is available in two different sizes, on amazon.com. I got the gallon size, because it wasn't much more expensive then the quart. You can find it here: https://amzn.to/47ygup2
