lost foam casting

I just cut a shape out of pink insulation foam covered all but the one side of it in masking tape and buried it in play sand.
The results were fairly crude but so was my starting form.
Definitely something I am going to keep working on.
The zinc was melted in a can in a charcoal fire. and poured onto the insulation.
The final cast is painted with Testors enamel.
