You can make a plaster mold, or for a more furable stone mold use dental
stone (you can get it mail order from Davis Dentral in North Hollywood, CA
(800) 842-4203. and use some burlap to reinforce it and you have a mold
for the ages. A stone mold calls for a release agent and that varies,
depending on what end material you use. Davis Dental is also a movie
special FX supply house, so they have lots of plastics rubber products,
molding agents, etc. You can also get silicone RTV molding agents from
Eastwood now.
