Mold time! Day 2

So I poured the second half of the mold this morning, and waited for it to set.  First the good news...

The two piece mold was a success. I had no problem separating the 2 pieces at all from each other once the RTV cured.

Now the bad news, the master flame markers I made are just too porous and they disintegrated in the RTV. So all that hard work I put into making this mold was all for naught. I'm going to have to make a master out of hardened clay and then try to cast that. 

It'll take me a few days to try to create a set of new masters to cast.
