Questions related to a tree sculpture

Other collective - Thursday, August 27, 2009 - 12:24pm

I am going to create a large scale sculpture of a stylized tree (about 5-7 meters high) but have no experience of working with metal. The tree will be placed outdoors. Do you have some suggestions as to what the most ecologically friendly and robust material for this might be (aluminium, steel?), and then from there, how I should connect them together?

Good day,
Here is another mask, this is one of my favs. Indian with a wolf.
Start to finish about 2 hours, came out of sand clean, no flashing, a couple minutes filing and a quick buff. Cut a few holes stuck in some marbles and done.

Aluminum Indian Mask

Good day all,
Here is a mask I cast out of aluminum. From start to finish took me about 2 hours. After the casting cooled, we cut the runner bar off, gave it a quick buff then and drilled holes for the eyes and added colored marbles. Set up with some sort of light(natural or other) and the eyes really come to life.
