Re: Faux Rock

20 years ago

Hi all, some info for those looking for info on making faux rock, go to keithtutor.com, for great videos on making rock from sand/cement. I met keith at a show recently, didn't know what he was up to till the rock started to emerge from a pile of rubble.

No high-tech materials or techniques, simple and do-able.

The most believable rock I have seen.

DVD'S are worth the bucks.

Good luck,

Slate

Hi Slate
Good fake rock is an art, all the tools in the world won't help if you don't have the 'eye'.
I don't have the skills, all my fake rocks look fake.:(

Here's a fake rock page. Not concrete but it's a fun page to look at and get ideas for concrete or tufa rocks.

Here is a link that might be useful: Rock It!
