Well here you go, Mrs. Indy! I've actually been trying for a while now to convince Mr. to allow me to make a mold of him. My friend thought that was a little twisted, but I think it would be soooo cool! Very kinky.
Being a former dental assistant, I've learned a thing or two about molding and casting. If you've ever had plaster casts made of your teeth, you've seen alginate. It's a fast-setting smooth paste about that sets to about the consistency of rubber. It's totally non-toxic, pleasant smelling (the dental alginate I use has a minty smell), and actualy leaves skin feeling soft and smooth. It's derived from a type of seaweed.
The process is pretty simple: Make an alginate mold and pour plaster or silicone rubber into the mold. Voila. I've actually made a couple of life-casts of my kids' hands and face. REALLY cool stuff.
Here are a couple of sites with more info and supplies:

If anyone wants any tips or tricks on the how-to's of mixing alginate or plaster, let me know. I haven't tried using the silicone....yet.
