Experiments 2

Well the Sculpey castings were baked and the Green stuff dried.

Less than ideal is probably the best way to conclude the matter. A lot of detail seems to have been lost.

To top it off I revisited the Sho't Kal rear deck and realised it's different to the M60 / M48 deck.

So back to the drawing board; I've a feeling the Centurions will be getting something in plastic card!

    As the moulding approach did not work, perhaps you should try sculpting from a rectangle?

    Thanks James. I've yet to try the dental putty for making the mould. I think the thermoplastic lost details.
    With the Centurions I need to rethink; I may try making something out of plastic card and see if I can make a mould of that. I have some resin, which may be a better material to make parts in.
