What You’ll Learn in This 3D Casting Course

Days 1 & 2 – Baby & Pet Castings

You will learn to take accurate baby hand and foot impressions using real models. This includes creating timeless handclasps for parents and loved ones.

Next, you’ll explore framing, colour finishes, and creative design ideas. I’ll help you troubleshoot common issues that arise during live model work.

Optional pet paw print casting is available. By the end, you’ll take home completed castings to begin your portfolio.

Day 3 of the 3D casting course focuses on professional skills, including advanced lifecasting techniques for creative and memorial pieces.
