Sharing experience of casting insects in this tutorial. The process is tricky with many sprues, joint thickening, pre-layers of Satin Cast and long burn-out.

Katie Morgan | Silversmith on Instagram: "I tried sand casting for the first time, I love the process and the instant results even though the final result wasn’t quite perfect. I’m going to keep practising and making slight adjustments to the process until I can get the perfect final result."
