This project was for Halloween. Not my Halloween, my uncle's, who is doing an Egyptian/cursed mummy tomb haunt this year. He had been looking for some scarab beetles, but they are surprisingly hard to find in bulk, so I went about looking about how to get him some. I found a site that claimed an easy way to make silicone molds. Then I went and carved a scarab beetle (or at least, as depicted in Egyptian hieroglyphics) out of oven bake clay, along with a couple of other Egyptian symbols. I unfortunately didn't take many pics of this as everything went pretty quickly and I got a lot of silicone on my hands and picking up my phone at that time seemed like a tremendously stupid idea. I ended up with a bunch of silicone molds that my uncle could fill with plaster and make however many items he wanted.
