I am curious about rock castings.

You can do either. Many vendors are happy to sell you the castings but they are very simple to make, using easy to make rubber molds. Usually a two part rubber that you mix per instructions and apply to the "model," in this case an interesting rock fragment or something with the texture & look of rocks, perhaps a coarse piece of bark or broken bits of ceiling tiles. <br /> <br />Most hobby suppliers sell the latex or silicone rubber for molds. You then mix your casting material & pour it into the mold. Some materials are hydrocal and other plasters, Sculptamold or two-part plastic. <br /> <br />Wayne
