I wrote this article as a supplement to a presentation given at the 2017 Ceroplastics Wax Modelling Congress in London. This article was published in the Book of Proceedings for the congress, along with many other fascinating articles on all things wax modelling, from the history of anatomical models, to modern sculpting techniques.
