Recasting a movie prop or old mask can bring something to people that they could only otherwise get from a sculpture. (except for aquiring the original molds of course)...
Recasting an artists \"sculpture\" is frowned down upon because it\'s not trying to aquire a rare prop, it\'s moreso trying to steal someone elses artwork.
There are grey areas but this simple philosophy has always made perfect sense to me.
I\'d rather have a recasted movie prop than an original sculpture of that same prop.. Due to accuracy
