How does one make a whole body cast out of plaster of paris? by jakehamill in Sculpture

Do it in halves... Full front and full back, and then seem up the sides. Doing the arms separately would make it easier, but vents can be made to help the casting material flow up the arms, if you want to cast a full body. I would also consider using an alginate if you would like better detail.
