I'm planning to make a portrait gourd:

It seems to me that, since there's no heat involved, I should be able to print the mold itself (rather than printing the head, then making a mold from it) - right? What material would you recommend?
Thanks,
Kim.

Well,
First off, it will take more material to print a mold. Then, you only have one mold to work with on your gourd plant. I'd print the portrait first and use the $$ savings to make several molds.
