Re-doing the arm casting

The first bronze pour, the arm part did not come out the way I wished, the ceramic shell had trapped an air bubble. Thus, filling the top portion of the arm to be solid and the lower end was deprived the bronze creating holes. 

Here is the first arm pour you can see the center filled with bronze.

wax and spruing process

The wax mold of the arm and other parts are removed out of the rubber molds. 

 the molds and wax copies are cleaned up and ready to be sprued.

 The arm and finger wax copies are going to be sprued together. I made the wax base with a plaster mold.
