Dorgs, the stuff is looking great! Are you making multiples of those Praji gloves? :naughty :stick

I assume you are familiar with Sculpey brand clay? Well, apparently there is a flexible version that is somewhat rubbery, and can be mixed with regular Sculpey to produce varying hardnesses between entirely rigid normal Sculpey and very floppy flexible Sculpey.

I have yet to try this, as I have not seen flexible Sculpey in local stores and don't want to go through the hassle of ordering any.

Hey Dude! It took me the longest time to find the flexible Sculpey, but I actually found it in a hobby store that carried RPG stuff. It was actually by all the Citadel paints or whatever they paint those little guys with? I have not been able to find it anywhere else. :confused:
 
I will make some Praji gloves, but I want to do them in a flexible rubber rather than a hard resin.

Cody update....

Is it possible to do a full mold then cut it in half and cast them then clean em up n stick em together with glue? if that makes sense.
 
Hey Snow

If that doesn’t work for you here is what I did. I casted one holster at a time, and then once I poured the resin and it cured I pushed the cast out from the bottom. However I used a soft mold made by smooth-on. But if you still cast one at a time you could cut the mold on the back side of the holster and it should slide right out. I gave you and example with the gun. I used the one mold method for the gun and it worked. The reason there are two pour holes is, one is for an air vent so air isn’t trapped in the mold. I hope this helps. Good luck my friend, and that Cody looks killer.

Cody's looking great Dorgs. By far my favorite clone. Can't wait to see him all done!
 
Cheers Ryan, really stuck on the backpack atm as I just can not find any good pics to work from.

There were casts on ebay ages ago... really wished I had got one :(
 
well the cast is out on the visor.. turned out ok.. but as the statues are 1/7th the visor is a bit on the short arm side of not quite long enough.. i am sure I could get around it some how but I am just gonna live with it...well for a bit any way.

next is the holsters! Jolly tricky little chaps they are.
