I am just getting started and have a lot of questions about some of the finer details of the craft. I don't have a fine arts degree but I know what I like; more of a classic style as opposed to the abstract or the avant garde. With regard to experience I have done a considerable amount of mold making and casting. When I was younger I was very much into lead/tin miniatures and self-taught myself how to make what I wanted using old tire weights, a barbeque, and plaster molds. I know, not an overly glamorous introduction to casting, but it worked. Over the course of the past 6 months I have learned a lot through Ganoksin. You people are amazing!! Currently I am taking some courses at Centre des Arts Visuel in Montreal and look forward to, at some point, having something to contribute to the forum.; n/a n/a
