landscape boulders can be seen everywhere in our lives. We can see various stone sculpture in shopping malls, parks, communities, and hotels. landscape boulders are not only beautiful, but also very popular with children, such as Gray Wolf, Doraemon, Ultraman, dinosaurs, etc. Most of the more popular stone sculpture nowadays are made of stone sculpture. Because stone carving is lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and low-cost.
1. Clay sculpture
①The first step is to make a skeleton to support the prototype according to the drawings and the characteristics of the finished product.
②Then, based on the shape of the stone sculpture, the preliminary clay sculpture is made on the prepared skeleton using methods such as foam cutting and scraping.
③After fine-tuning the preliminary clay sculpture, take photos for the customer to confirm the shape, and then proceed to the next step.
2. Confirm the grinding tool
①First of all, technicians will decide the surface treatment method of the clay sculpture based on various factors.
②Make molds of different materials according to customer requirements. Such as silicone molds, stone molds, or stone carving molds. Several molds each have their own advantages and disadvantages. For example, the cost of silicone mold is extremely high, but the finished product produced by it has the best effect. Stone carving molds can also be used multiple times, and the finished product has good effects, but it has the disadvantage of variability. The stone mold is a one-time use and the cost is low.
③When making molds, technicians need to divide the mold into two or more pieces according to the shape of the product. But its purpose is not to damage the mold, facilitate installation and easy splicing.
3. Making finished products
① landscape boulders are manufactured using hand lay-up molding methods. Several unit molds are copied separately.
②Splicing, also called assembly. Based on this, unit products are formed and then combined into a whole.
③Seam treatment: after splicing several unit products, the gaps need to be bonded and polished.
④Bracket production. That is, the skeleton that supports the stability of the finished product is generally made of steel.
4. Post-processing
①Scrape the surface with resin putty and polish it.
②Effect processing. Through painting, spraying, distressing, gilding and other techniques, you can achieve imitation gold, silver, copper, imitation antique bronze, imitation jade, imitation stone, etc. For example: imitation antique copper, there are more than a dozen techniques and effects, color and luster Natural and full, the copper texture is strong, the patina is real, and the patterns and textures are very exquisite, which cannot be achieved by metal products.
