Now THIS is where graffiti is going to!
Back in the day, if you wanted to deface a New York City subway poster, you brought along a Sharpie or Spray Paint and drew a mustache on one of the models, or maybe blackened a tooth,or and eye patch. Now you can bring along your Printable Cold Sores. Combine this with those speech-bubble stickers, and you can really humiliate these ad models. That’ll show ’em!

How to: Maquette Head Molding and Duplication



In This Article, I'll show you how to cast and duplicate an original head sculpt using some lube, some clay,and an oven. For this you will need.

1:The head or whatever it is your making.
2:Sculpey Brand Sculpey. (Oil & Plastic Based)
3:KY Touch Massage 2-in-1 Warming Oil (water based)

1st,your gonna coat the whole head with some lube. then your gonna squeeze that sculpey stuff onto each half of the model.i did the face first, then the back. Ultimately i only will use the faceplate of the model though.



Once you get it all pressed into place you can start to pull it all off carefully the lube will help it fall right off the model. note: this may only work well with less detailed models

The back of the model falls off easily as this is the smoothest part.You may need some tools i use toothpicks and tweezers to pull at parts of the sculpey.

Hobby Lobby has everything you ever need to make any craft.

But for everyone else i guess just go to Micheal's




When pulling the front off. go slow and careful. The KY warming grease will most likely make the head fall out of the mold.









Work the whole aroudn if you have to and it should pull out of the mold pretty easy.Next you'll pop all yoru mold in the oven and let em bake for 275 Degrees for 15 minutes per 1/4" inch.








I made several casts to get the best one i can. i did at one point have to split the face molds in half to allow then to come out fairly undistorted. if you have question post a comment. or email me if you would just like to send cash in an envelope.


Now just bake and sculpt and paint your casts.

DIY Home Cleaning Formulas


It's funny that you grow up making messes around your house and someone was always there to clean it up. You didn't care who or why.

Then you wake up one day...

You are 30 years old, have kids, and quickly learn that when you are not policing them, you are cleaning up after them. As you sift though the plethora of chemical clad solutions at your disposal, you realize that spraying these things around the house may not be too smart, or cost conscious. I mean, I can go through a $4.00 can of carpet cleaning foam in a weekend!

So first, if you insist on using store-bought cleaners, protect the kids and get some Mr. Yuk stickers. If you are like me and enjoy trying new things that save money and use less chemicals, try some of the tips at Eartheasy. There must be 40 or 50 different ideas at their site, here is a sample:

* All-Purpose Cleaner: Mix 1/2 cup vinegar and 1/4 cup baking soda (or 2 teaspoons borax) into 1/2 gallon (2 liters) water. Store and keep. Use for removal of water deposit stains on shower stall panels, bathroom chrome fixtures, windows, bathroom mirrors, etc.
Another alternative is microfiber cloths which lift off dirt, grease and dust without the need for cleaning chemicals, because they are formulated to penetrate and trap dirt. There are a number of different brands. A good quality cloth can last for several years.

* Disinfectant: Mix 2 teaspoons borax, 4 tablespoons vinegar and 3 cups hot water. For stronger cleaning power add 1/4 teaspoon liquid castile soap. Wipe on with dampened cloth or use non-aerosol spray bottle.
