If you use the label filter over on the left to look at "Empire Ogres", you'll soon find plenty of places where I talk about what I do. <br /><br />The white is not resin - it's a putty called Magic Sculpt. It's softer than green stuff, sets harder, and can go all paste/clay-like when you add water. I've also found buying it in bulk to be more affordable than green stuff, hence my having a stockpile of it. <br /><br />The moulds are made using Instant Mould/Oyumaru, which allows you to melt down your moulds into new shapes when you're done with them. So I make my master components using green stuff or Magic Sculpt, make moulds, and then use those to pump out copies using more putty.<br /><br />Over time I have accumulated half a dozen different sets of legs, a similar number of breastplated torsos, and numerous arms and heads that I can modify, re-pose and generally play with to make unique models. Most of them do not even resemble GW components. Many of them were never even based upon GW originals...Hoodlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08507134198601519253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5766783090193307178.post-45544510462028950982014-07-29T02:37:41.497-07:002014-07-29T02:37:41.497-07:00Press moulds, white Resin? body bits???
