1/6 custom pilots

[FLOSI]

Well I guess its not to difficult the way I am doing it. I am using this sort of putty stuff to make the moulds. I am making them in two halves. I am using this stuff called resin plaster which is amazing .

What have I cast????

Well I have just done a Bossk head, a weequay and some other ones for the cantina corner.

I love it!!

So for a solid item, such a headsculpt, it's good? I know this has been said ad nauseum but Praji gloves

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

Humm gloves would me a no no! the way I am working

Flosi. sent you a pm back. should have read this thread first but wasnt really sure what you were referring to. i'll help you out where i can. no prob.

i think i am going to have an attempt at the praji gloves. going to "web" the fingers with some putty first before i make the mold so the fiingers are more one piece and will cast easier. think if i just do a one piece mold an cut the mold right i should be able to make fairly decent casts with little clean up. we"ll see.

Not sure if you guys read the SS QaA yesterday but they mentioned doing pilots in the near future.... Almost makes you wonder if they look at these threads since rebel pilots have been the "flavor of the month" so to speak.

 

[Dorgmal Snow]

Humm I know what you mean! They talk of Pilots, tauntauns, landspeeder!!

Got a very large box of parts from Toy Anxiety today, going to start work on some A-Wing, Y-Wing and B-Wing helmets.

So it begins..........

What did you get, Chaka? Just bits from which you feel you can make helmets?

 

[Crimsonbob]

They would be damn pricey though i reckon.

I will leave that to Mark and the other "experts" here on the boards.

Besides, I dont have the room.

That would have to be the ultimate... someone who uses an entire room to make a docking bay.

 

[Crimsonbob]

1 Dewback and 1 scout speeder has taken up enough room as is for me

 

[Ryan1982]

still painting the head.

 

[Crimsonbob]

[Dorgmal Snow]

[FLOSI]

Very nice Ryan! This really looks to be the best pilot custom yet!

 

[Darth_IMPoor]
