hello..
i want to ask where do i find the tempelates to sculpt the body and head?
Hi Alola,
the plan is now visible in the Course Material Section at the bottom of the Curriculum. Thank you for reminding us. You make the templates approximately 1 cm smaller then the drawing is, because you are going to add on a layer or two of ganache and then the sculpting paste (or modeling chocolate). If you have any more questions, we are here to help:)
Thank you so much
