Concrete Lion Head - Using Quikwall and Plasticizer for Concrete Garden Art

http://UltimatePaperMache.com I showed you this lion before it was finished. This is how it came out. I thought you might also like to see how I used the plasticizer with the Quikwall to get a nice smooth surface on the finished casting.

Links to some of the things mentioned in the video:

-- Quickwall fiber-reinforced cement: http://www.quikrete.com/productlines/QuickwallSurfaceBondingCement.asp - It's available at my local Lowes, but not available in some areas. Not sure why. :(
-- Julie's Concrete Mountain Lion tutorial: http://ultimatepapermache.com/julies-mountain-lion-sculpture
-- Rebound 25 Silicone mold-making material: http://goo.gl/K7aJYa
-- Buddy Rhodes plasticizer: http://www.buddyrhodes.com/superplas-water-reducer-spwr2003/
-- Concrete Acrylic Fortifier: http://www.lowes.com/pd_11322-286-861014_0__?productId=3009185&Ntt=quikrete -- I didn't test the finished piece to see if it was stronger than a lion I made without the fortifier.
