I used pure graphite to make sure that the holes for the hinge pins would come out in the casting.  This way I can easily drill or pull out the graphite after casting.
Waxes ready to cast.  Stay tuned.  I will photograph the castings.  They have been cast and are currently being cleaned up.  (8 cast pieces total)

Too many bubbles in the silicone mold.  However, the bubbles did not seem to cause any problems with my model.  So I was able to inject some decent waxes. 

Tons of elements to sew.

All work on hold until the flu has run it's course.

Only the beginning.

These are the fiber elements @ the beginning stages of my next pollinator.
