After making the moulds I wanted to create a concrete version of the art toy.
The first idea was to create both halves separately and stick them together afterwards.

I quickly realised that sticking them together would not be an easy process but it gave a good idea how the complete set would look.

So the second experiment was to cut pouring holes into the mould and add the concrete from the top. I used the electric sander to get rid of any remaining airbubbles.

I demoulded the body and arms just before the concrete was fully hardened. This way I could remove the pouring sprouts more easily.
