Ninja Warrior with Grapple

Price $69.95Add to cart

Cold cast bronze, also referred to as bronze resin, is a technique involving blending bronze powder with epoxy resin to produce a material which is applied to the interior of a silicone mould. Subsequent applications of this will produce a shell into which an armature (wire frame) can be constructed. The mould is then filled with a blend of resin and metal powders which are left to set. The mould is then dismantled and the casting removed. It is then rubbed back to reveal the bronze surface and this can then be patinated (coloured) using a variety of chemicals. Jade oil is used to secure the coloration and a fine application of pure beeswax results in a lustrous finish.

                                                                                        

This cold cast bronze piece is of a ninja warrior who has stowed his nunchuck in his belt, and is using his grapple to get at the enemies that have buried their shuriken at his feet. The detail on this piece is such that upon the warrior's face you can see the barely contained fury that will soon be directed at his enemies. I do not envy them at all. This piece stands 8 1/2" high, and the chain of the grapple is made of a light metal.
