Mold Making and Casting Experience?
« on: September 04, 2016, 11:54:33 AM »
If you have any experience with this, and if you're looking for some work, I have a project I need some help on!

I already have the figure that I need the mold of, so it's just a matter of having the mold created and casting it in a translucent color. The batch would be about 12 figures total, possibly a few more to determine the right color before proceeding with the final 12.

If you have any interest, feel free to PM me with examples of your work and your rates.

Thanks!

Oh man! I'm looking into learning to make my own molds/casting in resin, so I'll keep an eye on this thread! :D

I have also wondered about advice in this area, particularly with ponies. I went to a seminar once on resin casting, but they only demonstrated one part molds.

Me too. I want to make wands, wings, and other projects. I would buy or trade for this. I dream of a stand for my rearing ponies.

I actually will have the rearing pony stands available eventually. I just have been busy with other projects.

Ooh!! I've been asking around, do you have a preferred type of resin you like to use, Tiella? ^_^ I just love your translucent ponies!!
