    At the very least, perhaps they can do a "live cooking show" approach... "Here's a mold I made earlier... watch as I carefully remove the original sculpt from it." kinda thing.

              So far it is just a suggestion. I'm waiting to hear back from the organizers as to whether they want this as part of the scheduled events for 2011.

                I would love to see this. Anything I can learn or pick up from the great talents in attendance would be awesome. This will be my first Mego Meet, so I'm REALLY excited.

                    ChrisDVM asked me to see who was interested. I posted a duplicate thread in Custom Discussion hoping some of our top customizers would say they were in yet the thread remains un-answered. We have people who want to participate, who want to learn to sculpt. In that case if Sandy attends, I suspect he will be the top sculptor in the workshop.

                        Sandy, I think we could learn a lot from you. Sculpting seems to come naturally for you.

                          Could we have someone to teach a class on how to paint and paint eyes like that sort of thing? That would be very helpfull.

                              As of right now the Sculpture workshop has not even been approved. I haven't been given any OK or assurances it will happen. If it does it will be about sculpture. I don't know how to paint eyes or make molds.

                              If painting and making molds are things you want to see you should start a thread and see who else wants these things at Mego Meet or PM the organizers and ask them if you can have a workshop on painting or making molds/casting. In previous years ChrisDVM announced he would demonstrate re-stringing for people and no-one came to see it. If you guys want these events you have to be pro-active and request them. That is one of the points to having Mego Meet. To ask for demonstrations; to pass on what you know to others.

                                Sounds interesting.
                                If it gets approved I think theres LOTS of things that could be taught every year.
                                Sculpting, painting, moldmaking, enlarging, shrinking, and . . . . . sewing.
