Cool
Ooooo
love your vids
4th âđ
Nice!
Math teachers hate Jazza. He is the definition of, "Wrong equation, correct answer"
Is he good at maths?
@@edizgunes nope
@@Fb4jfhu4hf chill bro
@@dark420tides i'm sorry?
i'm pretty sure that's an insult and i'm not even a furry
still tho i'll never get furry haters :[
Jazza: forgets to spray mold release
*Somewhere, Evan & Katelyn's ears are ringing and they don't know why*
just what i was thinking
Them cringing at the resin work
@@SnickersEatsCookies haha yeah and Jazza not wearing a ventilator mask or anything
I didn't know I *needed* an E & K & J collaboration until clicking this video
I know right xD
The fact that he did not carefully, slowly, gradually allow the air back into the vacuum chamber absolutely kills me every time .
Yeah, most experienced resin casters learn quickly to put a 90 degree elbow fitting on the inlet air fitting to prevent this from making a serious mess.
I love that after I watched this video, YT suggested a number of videos showing how to make silicone molds properly. Lol
Yeah, this one is definitely "What NOT to do!" "Learn from my mistakes" type of learning. :D
This is the type of art content that has been elevated, but still stays true to its roots. Iâve watched Jazza for a while when he was in his other studios and Iâm glad theyâve been able to expand and grow! â€ïž
He stays true to his motto, obnoxious⊠but consistent .
@@juliankreugel9231 unlike ZHC
this is such a change of pace from the zhc videos lol
Same
Yes, but as an Aussie, I must ask, have you seen drawing with jazza?
Jazza: Super easy, barley an inconvenience!
Ryan doing Pitch Meeting: I... I think I have been summoned somewhere!
And then he did a backflip snapped the bad guys neck and saved the day
Wow wow wow wow
Wow
I see, men of culture.
Pitch meeting references are TIGHT
Wow wow wow wow. Tight
might want to read safety instructions when dealing with resin.
also might want to use a compression chamber when using resin pours.
also instead of doing 2/3 piece molds you can just do a cut mold.
The point of the video is to do it without instructions. But you should still definitely read the instructions.
Ok I was feeling pretty low but hearing Jazza say "super easy, barely an inconvenience" made me smile.
Ryan George?
Gyan Reorge?
Wow wow wow, wow.
Be sure to use safety precautions when using resin. Masks are a must!
Ikr! I hope people dont go and do this without a mask now, this needs to be bumped
A simple mask won't get rid of the toxic fumes, you need a respirator for this.
@@ViewtifulZeke yeah thats what i have, and one for specifically organic vapours
Not all art resin nowadays has the dangerous vapors. So read the instructions first to see what safety precautions you should take. I use a resin that does not have the nasty vapors so I don't need a mask in a well ventilated area =)
@@dragoness3606 the parts themselves are non toxic, so it says theyre safe, but when theyre reacted together they are unsafe so the packaging is basically lying, you should still use a respirator
Whatâs the possibility of having you and Evan & Katelyn doing a virtual collab? đThey could probably show you some really cool resin techniques and you guys could even maybe do a little competition or something!
yes I found a fan of their channel!
That would be awesome!!
perfect collab
Hehehe thanks Francesca :p
maybe they can teach him about the concept of ppe
I love how much fun you were having with this but the lack of safety precaution with potentially dangerous materials was very disappointing. Chemicals and fumes that other people have explained aside, messing with a vaccum chamber or other pressurized appliance could cause an explosion if you mess it up.
I'd love to see another video following up about silicone molds but this time following the instructions.
The vacuum chamber can't explode. At all.
â@@damirregoc8111 yes it absolutely can
I also watch a lot of resin art channels, and fully recommend placing your poured molds into the vacuum pot while theyâre curing. Even if you pull the air out before the pour, the act of pouring creates bubbles. Also also, the higher up you pour from, relative to the surface, the more air is introduced.
Mix, pour to cast mold, vacuum the mold, let it set in the vacuum under negative pressure, release the air valve and peel off the mold. Pretty sure that's the order. If you vacuum before pouring, you just introduce air bubbles you just got rid of into the mold when you pour.
molds won't always fit into a pressure chamber. You pour higher up in a thin stream to avoid air bubbles.
Yes that is exactly how to do it, plus read instructions, take all required safety precautions that instruction tells you to do, stir do not shake....lol Did I mention READ THE INSTRUCTION FOR SAFETY!
This! Iâm all for diving in, but I have a problem with shoddy work because of a lack of common sense. I love Jazza but still have PTSD from the time he ruined the horsehair trying to make brushes.
if you first vacuum and then poor from a high stream only on one spot and slightly tap the molds you have virtually no airbubbles. that is how my teacher in Special effects prosthetics did it, who is also a specialist in the field. Both options work depending on what exactly you are doing and how big your molds are.
You vacuum two times first before pouring and second after.
Without instructions OR safety precautions. Other folks have already mentioned the lack of respirator, but there were also several segments without gloves and one where you were handling the liquid resin with your bare hands. I'm also pretty sure that you need proper safety glasses when using UV light to cure that UV resin...
Classic Jazza gotta love it
@@KaitlynBurtonISaGOD I mean, not really. There's quirky and then there's dangerous and bad examples
@@TheThirdPrice who cares it's not a tutorial
@@Sveta69420 uhmm haven't other people died before from copying things that aren't tutorials too (rip), don't underestimate ignorance
@@Sveta69420 it may not be but a lot of kids watch his stuff, even if the majority of the audience here is older people thereâs bound to be kids watching too. Kids, and even some teens and young adults, will copy him and put themselves in danger. And while parents SHOULD step in, they donât always. Especially if theyâre also misinformed and donât know how dangerous resin can be. Itâs always better to play it safe than to assume nobody is going to be influenced by your actions. Even if you have a small audience, you need to set a good example just in case.
The moment I heard "6-minute working time for silicone" I knew it would be CHAOS! :)
For miniatures and sculptures you should not go below 30min - 2h work time to let the silicone settle in all the details and degass it's surface on its own.
With resin you want to use pressure chamber to use short working time to make many casts and clear inside.
I would love to see a follow-up video that's a collab between you and Peter Brown. His absolute calmness and your high energy would be a super interesting combination. Plus, he's such an amazing resin artist. I'd love to see what you two were able to come up with since you're both so insanely creative!
Dave: I worked pretty hard on those. Is the paint job gonna be okay?
Jazza: *holds eye contact with camera, pauses* Probably.
And THEN he uses it as the DABBLE! đ€ŁPeak Jazza. đ
I was searching for this comment đđđ
I don't know... that felt a little dickish to me =/
I should've measured.
~ Jazza 2022
as someone who watches Evan and Katelynâs videos, as soon as he started mixing that silicone i immediately thought âI hope he has mold releaseâ and then when he brought it out âoh thank GODâ
*"The mold for this should be super easy, barely an inconvenience!"*
I see you are also a man of culture, Jazza.
You should DEFINITELY wear a respirator if you're mixing epoxy resin, don't forget about your camera guy(s) either. Resin fumes are real bad for your lungs
No eye protection made me a bit anxious as well. You do not want resin in your eyes. Even a small droplet can do some serious damage.
Do you need to wear one for all types of resin
@@crmsn_ I might want some eye protection around that UV light too.
@@pRahvi0 absolutely, all the PPE.
Who cares. What's the worst that can happen?
Even if I follow instructions, I fail but this is Jazza we're talking about. It's going to be amazing, obviously. đ
*attempts to set up vacuum chamber*
* Fails*
"Ok Let's find out what happens when you DONT duck the bubbles out."
Jazza,
One of the really cool things about making silicone molds is that it transfers exactly what the surface of the casted item has. This includes holographic sheen. Since holographic effects are created by a surface texture that refracts light, you can actually apply a holographic effect to an item before making a mold of it and every time you make a cast of it, the holographic effect transfers as well. Can't wait to see what you create further!
Yes I've seen someone on youtube do this with chocolate to make it reflect light like a rainbow. Really cool concept!
@@Julia-hs9ogwhoa I never even considered chocolate. Thats so cool!
@@SoQuaintAndSimple Yes it was very cool! I checked now and it was a video by Ann Reardon (How to cook that) called Holographic Rainbow Chocolate
@@Julia-hs9og ill have to check her out! :) thanks!
Resin artist here and Iâve been thinking about trying silicone and Iâm even more tempted now! Looks so much fun everything looks awesome
"Let's pour silicone without instructions"
YES. ALL THE YES.
Yeeeeeeeeeeees
How about no
I believe you can just pour the dragon silicone as one full mold and use an exact blade to cut the silicone and the parting cuts will fit back together perfectly. Robert Tolone uses this process.
The CraftsMan Steady Craftinâ is great with molds.
@@lollylolly8186True that! I love "the Craftsman!!"
You can but it's a right nightmare; you can end up damaging the original (if you're trying to keep it) and even with the sharpest exacto, it wont always cut very neatly (though if you do cut, a zig zag will help it lock back together again)
A more well planned and timed version of what Jazza did is generally industry standard, especially for complex pieces
Iâm sculpting an entire Godzilla, full dynamic posing and whatnot, would this method work? If not what can I do. (I donât need to keep the original, itâs made of monster clay)
@@Thedifficultytweak You should really check out Robert Tolone's channel one cut molds require a lot of planning but create super clean casts and ensure everything fits and casts correctly without much cleanup
But yeah a one cut mold or multi piece mold will work for your godzilla cast, in my experience just be sure to buy enough silicone cause having too thin walls on a mold can potentially cause it to tear
Great job on your first silicone molds Jazza! =D
Ok, Punished Props is not who I expected to see here XD If my reaction was "oh Jazza no" Bill and Britt's must have been horror and incredulous laughter
I purchased your bundle guides on your website man and you truly made art enjoyable for me again. Love how simple you explained everything how quickly I've been able to see myself progress. Really having a blast by just doodling and creating.
"Super easy, barely an inconvenience" are you scriptwriter guy from another timeline??? Fantastic job đđ„°
Wowowow wow wow...wow
OH NOOOOOOOO!!! I have two girlfriends, but very few people on YT are happy for my relationship success. They disl*ke all of the videos I make with my 2 girlfriends. Please be kind, dear jea
Getting stuff out of the mold is tight
@@AxxLAfriku tf?
@@mncrft9087 put stuff into a mold is TIGHT
I like how the first mold you make is of someone else's model, hand painted, and you don't know if it'll ruin the paint... that could've went horribly lol
Anyways, another banger video, the vampire head is especially cool.
I like how Jazza doesnât just do the project but is also genuinely funny. Makes these videos that much better.
I did this kind of stuff at uni and I honestly wish my tutor had been like Jazza. When we were first starting, had we made something like Jazza's vampire, we'd have been chewed out for wasting materials by doing such a messy job instead of letting us feel safe in our learning and experimentation, creating an unhealthy perfectionism which resulted in avoidance from a lot of us. Although I must admit; watching Jazza make the moulds was slightly painful as we were always taught "Time spent at the stage before means time saved at the stage after" (aka neat moulds=neat casts)
Jazza: *thriving and living his best life*
Me: *anxiously watching this chaos unfold*
Idea: Recast the vampire's head, but turn it into a door knocker with the part people knock in its mouth.
Yessss!!! He should totally do this! Would be cool af to see him casting metals too
You are a genius
Yes!!!âš
As an avid fan of Jazza for years- this has to be one of his best videos, the perfect mix of goofy, serious, fun and new exciting things! I truly hope this becomes some sort of series because I LOVE this! We need this as a series!
How easy is it to pour silicone without instructions? Jazza: "Super easy, barely an inconvenience." Me: Wow wow wow wow
That reference is tight!
that reference to a reference to a reference was super tight
Wow, wowow wow
Wow
I really wanted to add on to this, but I just couldn't think of anything good. đ€·ââïž
@@Rennies-World âș That's no problem! I'm just happy so many people got the reference and wanted to add to it. A lot more fun that way.
Having followed Rybonator for quite a while now, watching Jazza put the mix in the vaccuum chamber before pouring hurts every time.
Also: respirator! Yes, jumping in without instructions is charming, but can lead to doing dangerous things such as not wearing a respirator when working with resin!
A very good first attempt! You've clearly done your research. You could look into getting a pressure pot as well as a vacuum chamber. You can leave the cast in there overnight as it cures, rather than having to rush around vacuuming out bubbles before the resin sets.
Also try cutting the casts out of a one-part mould with a scalpel, rather than making a 2 or 3 part mould. It can actually leave less mould lines and be a lot simpler
Iâve never had much luck with vacuuming out bubbles when Iâve done molding/casting. I recommend pressure molding and casting. Similar concept as vacuuming except that you pump air in which builds the pressure in the tank before the silicone or resin starts curing. This will crush the bubbles down to the point they practically vanish and it pushes the silicone or resin into the fine details really well. Overall though, you did way better than my first go at molding and casting, Jazza!
Jazza : Can't set up Vacuum chamber...
Jazza : I PLANNED IT !đ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
I'm proud of you
Great! Now all you have to do is create 10 of these, customise them with shiny paints and give them to strangers
Lmfaooooo
đđ
To be even more accurate, he gets other people to do it, don't credit them, and pretend he's changing the world by painting stuff in sparkly colors.
Dear Jazza. Thank you for making content that you love doing. Itâs so amazing (dare I say âsatisfyingâ) to watch someone with your passion and creativity just do what they want instead of trying to please an algorithm. Bless you, mate.
It's like watching a mad scientist and work.
Loved it!
I relate so hard to impulsively starting the silicone before assembling the vacuum chamber! Excitement before planning! :D
As someone w prosthetic makeup mould making background here are some tips that may help ^^: When pouring any material into the mould usually for the first layers u pour few amount from a high distance so the rest of the bubbles have a way to pop before making their way into the cast.
Also for casting with plaster u can make a first batch that is more liquid (not super watery) and pour a little bit and move around the mould so it can adhiere to the surface, then fill up the rest of the mould with a more dense mix so it dries up faster. Also, you can set it in a table and slam the table around so the air bubbles make their way to the top and pop ^^
Hope this helps, and sorry if its not very clear, english is not my first language.
Jazza : we will immortalize it
Also Jazza : cuts half the head off
My family did plastercraft figurines for decades. To make molds, we would stand things like the dragon head on its flat base and used a paint-on silicone, making a thick flap all around the base. You have to do a lot of layers, but itâs more flexible (and not a block) to remove when you cast, basically turn them inside out to remove. To fill the mold, we would fit squares of cardboard with holes in the middle. Then we would use that cardboard to suspend the mold by the thick flap into a glass or bucket, so it would be upside down. I feel that you used too much water in your plaster. Itâs been a very long time since I did it, but I donât believe we ever used 1:1 ratio of plaster to water. We would definitely have a damp, but firm cast after drying in mold overnight. We would remove the casting at that point and let it completely dry before painting it.
yeah you are definitely meant to vacuum it after pouring around the form >< the pouring is what causes the bubbles in the mould and vacuuming draws them out.
Also silicon moulds are generally flexible enough that it can be taken off from a lot of angled stuff though with fragile things you can generally you can pour a small base in first to set, place the object on the set base and pour to fill, vacuum to set to remove bubbles, once set you carefully cut the mould in half in a way that gives best freedom of removal and peel it off into a 2 part mould.
I hope you give this stuff another go because I imagine once you get it down you could make some cool reusable moulds and make stuff specifically to mould them (miniatures and figurines for instance) then you can make an army of things!
Oh, man. Whenever youâre working with resin or silicone or any permanent embedding substance, the first couple trial casts always, *always* seem to go really well to lure you into a false sense of security. Then you try it with some treasured, fragile possession and thatâs when it all goes wrong. Thatâs when you end up slicing pieces off of other things to fill gaps, start chopping table legs shorter to get the level of the liquid *just right,* start to cold sweat into the mixture which just ruins it even further
A few tips to minimize bubbles:
For silicone you can use a vacuum chamber to remove bubble before you pour. While pouring, pour from high up in a thin stream (this pops left over bubbles) and try to pour in one spot on a low point thatâs not on your model. After you pour you can tap on the mold or shake it to release extra bubbles, or cure it inside a pressure pot.
For casting in resin, some resin can be degassed in a vacuum chamber before you pour. While pouring, you can brush your resin into the mold with a disposable brush to get resin into all the undercuts. Then you can tap on the mold or shake it to release extra bubbles, a torch can also remove bubbles, or you can cure it in a pressure pot.
I love when people try out mold making, itâs really fun and useful.
I'm glad that he remembers the mold release đ€Ł Evan and Katelyn forget it a lot.
Speaking of, love to see Jazza Collab with them. I'm sure they'd made great things together.
Thank you so much for this! I have a project involving resin and making silicone moulds that Iâve been putting off for literally years, because Iâve been too intimidated. Now, Iâm super excited to get cracking!
3:21 that would make a BEAUTIFUL sculpture
That vampire face would pair awesomely with an LED light! Install it into a wall mount or even a mirror that it looks like the vampire is emerging from.
You should be able to do some careful light polishing on that resin Thanos to make it really look like carved gemstone
I'm no silicone expert but I've seen channels make complicated molds which they get out by making a slit in the final stage. Models of all sorts pop right out super easy, barely an inconvenience
I love how he instead of being a normal artist takes strange ideas and makes it so interesting and make me want to dabble in these things as well great job Jazza! đ
Well done Jazza, as a beginner to silicone molds, you remembered what Even and Katelyn always forget⊠MOLD RELEASE đ
In school we never used them but it could be becouse we used a silicon that is only for that and it worked just fine.
Hey, when making a silicone mould (thinking of the dragon), you can take an exacto knife and slice in to it in a zig zag pattern. That way you get it out a lot easier but you can also put the silicone together easily again. :)
I love when Jazza does videos like this. Itâs always so fun to watch him try something new.
Loved the Ryan George reference. "Super easy. Barely an inconvenience." Lol. Jazza clearly watches quality CZcams videos
When he sliced into the still setting mould to "make an offcut" I lost it đ
This was probably one of his most chaotic videos in the past few years, if not ever.
This was fun, I hope Jazza keeps going with casting. He did really well for his first go. The mild chaos reminded me of my foundations class when we learned how to use plaster, resin, and silicone to cast these found-object monsters.
Robert Tolone- best guy for moulds and resin casting.
Always pour from the bottom up! Pouring the top surface catches bubbles.
Use monster clay to fill the corners FIRST to use less silicone.
Jazza: âThe mold for this would be super easy barely an inconvenienceâ
Me: âAh an intellectual. Someoneâs been watching Pitch Meetingsâ
Jazza please use uv protection Google's while using your fancy lamp and downright flashing it in your face....
Tip: after mixing the silicone mixture transfer it to another mould to avoid unmixed parts and don't scrap the left on side
and in this episode of jazza does stuff without guidance: (possibly) dangerous chemicals!!!!!!!!
i used to own a resin bases business, and used a lot of pinkysil. this video was... rough :). glad you got there but definitely could get better. i never bothered with a vacc chamber, never needed it. use enough CRC silicon spray which helps remove bubbles, and pour from a height (which breaks bubbles during the drop), and you will be fine. if you are dealing with intricate detail you an brush on the initial lawyer of silicon to those bits, and ensure no bubbles and then pour the rest after.
Honestly the first castle mold release worked out pretty well WITH the bubbles. All the bubbled spots on the surface look like siege damage to the castle walls.
The level of unperturbed chaos in this video is exactly why I'm subscribed to this channel.
Did Jazza just quote the Pitch Meeting guy?! âSuper easy, barely an inconvenience.â đ
I was looking for this comment. I was thinking the same thing too. Ryan George would be proud. I bet.
I loved watching you stumble through this, because that is what I do. And more people should. You learn so much. Thanks for videoing that and sharing it!
A tip for pouring silicone is to make a thin stream when pouring it into the mold like pouring it from a higher height and pouring it as if u were pouring a drink, pouring it with a thinner stream helps get the bubbles out of the silicone if there are any left. Love ya Jazza!
I love how the dragon head mold looks like, it feels like some fossil you'd find of a ancient creature, bit like dinosaur fossils in real life
This is one of the most chaotic non diy videos I have ever seen and I LOVE IT.
When you dont have a pressure pot to get rid of the bubbles, if you dust your molds with talcum powder, due to the capillary action the resin will find its way into small details.
The silocone pouring looks amazing, Jazza, and the video is fantastic.
I can see no way this pepto bismol pour can go wrong.
Hey jazza, awesome! Always asked myself when you will give mold making and casting a try. Love it.
P. S. A vacuum chamber is not qualified for degassing resin because it sucks the air out. For resin you want a pressure pot. It makes the bubbles "pop"
Watching you w a cup of coffee is a good way to start the day. You're so cool dude đ€
Such chaos. This video absolutely embodies the whimsical gung-ho approach to trying new stuff that first made me subscribe to your channel. Many of us don't have the chance to explore new mediums and techniques without restraint because of silly practical concerns like material cost, so it is fun to see you try it and share with us :)
That vampire is both being burried and having a spa day
Jazza thanks for being here for all of us dude ,you are such an inspiration.
Iâve gone through so many silicone and casting tutorials and this is the only one that showed me what I need
man it must be so cool to do all these fun projects. The studio looks like such a cool space to be!
It has just occurred to me.
Jazza is opening a gaming business in association with tTt.
This is probably a shadow test to see if they can mass produce any of their sculpts as lil casts or things we can buy. probably in association with gaming, like the Hex grid Castle there.
That would be so cool!
quick suggestion for resin you want to use a pressure pot to make the bubbles as small as possible , instead of pulling bubbles out and exploding it
If you keep doing resin pours, get a respirator (Half mask usually works, like a spray painters mask) The fumes uncured resin makes is pretty nasty stuff. Also try not to touch the resin, as it can get fairly hot and burn you due to the reaction of resin mixes reacting pretty harshly
I love the fast and furious way you just went head first into this, no faffing about. Brilliant stuff just what I like in an instructional. There is too much padding on youtube ! keep it up mate :) I am a subscriber now
0:45 Super Easy Barely an Inconvinience! Love the reference ;)
I expect the comments will be so full of experts with comments about everything you did wrong in this video. Results looked great and that simple paint wash over the dragon made a massive improvement.
i laughed so hard when you went panicky at the end. nice projects. i enjoyed every bit and i really needed that laugh
I absolutely love every part of this video! Tha k you for showing even your "big" mistakes. It gives me the confidence to start my projects that I've been putting off.
VIDEO IDEA:
Jazza should paint 2 bob ross paintings at .75 speed at the same time without pausing
ANOTHER:
Paint a bob ross paintings with one small brush only
If I were you, I would've ask Nate or Calli for advice for the dragon mold to make it in one piece, they have a lot of experience with detailed silicone molds
Hey Jazza! If youâre starting to get more into resin and casting and stuff, as you seem to be, I would highly recommend Peter Brown as a collaborator. Heâs a great creator who makes some really fun and creative stuff with resin.
I donât know if youâll see this or not, but I really hope you do â€ïž
Caught that Pitch Meeting reference so quickly, both Drax & Steve would be so impressed!
Another handy tip is to use water based clay to build your dividing walls on your sculpt. It will be heaps easier to clean off and remove from your sculpt!
Silocone pouring looks awesome . Great video Jazza. đ
