Yeah, he's back!! Great stuff. Think Obi Sith would have more impact if you darkened his face down a fair bit (maybe even give him an evil goatee!).
Also, awesome Luke casts, you cast so clean! Were you not worried about breaking the PERS when casting? That (and a lack of skill) is whats stopping me!
 
The Fabric Looks very similar to Spandex but has a really fine weave, will try and get some pics for you .

Inner robe seem more like 501st Style material

I can see we're gonna have to look into the LOL
 
I was looking at doing these about 2 years ago. Dorgs cast me up a few RG helmets but that's as far as I got. I could never get

Bloody stupid phone...I could never get the robes made up or casts of the Electro staff cos the Hasbro one was rubbish.

Owenseago, Exactly what I was thinking, I' planning on possibly adding a scar, lengthening the goatee part of his beard, maybe adding some grey streaks.
On Top of that I will be washing the eyes to give them the classic sith eyes as well as giving him long shaggy hair

As for casts, thanks , as I said to you before , work out how best to cast them and above all pour slowly.
And Yes was a little more than worried about snaffooing the PERS but its just 4 small screws to remove the lver , then you just have to gently pry the housing out.After that the eyes pop right out.
Believe it or not the eyeballs where just pieces of plasterscene rolled in to a ball and pushed through a little, the pressure shaped them perfectly, go figure.
Pm Me if you want a couple

Cheers Guys
 
J14 well we have them now ( Medicom Too :yess:),:rotfl
Let me know when you're ready and we'll work a trade out, spider, I think ,will be starting to think about making the robes right Now :pray: I've dangled the carrot so hopefully he's game :wink1:

Wait Just one cotton picking Minute here Spidie, thought you where the seamstrees , I've done the casting, its your turn now :pfft::pfft:

Fabric, seamstress ........... Resin , Caster :exactly:

:lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol

will see what I can do
 
Hey if your using a pressure pot, try the pressure at 40 when casting and see if that helps with bubbles. Got that advice from another caster.
 
Almost forgot to post these two guys
They aren't complete yet but liked the backstory I created , I couldn't resist showing them

Ratt And Fusewire
Backstory
Ratt came through the academy showing an aptitude for small arms and hand to hand combat.
It was very quickly noticed that his skills in stealth and an ability to gain access to seemingly impenetrable locations through the use of natural subterranean paths could be put to good use.
With advanced training he was put to work infiltrating behind enemy lines for reconnaissance and was eventually teamed up with Fusewire a demolitions expert.
They originally came through the academy together but where posted to separate units after graduation.They where re united when selected for a covert mission and their superiors where so impressed with how they instinctively reacted together as a unit that they where permanently paired up as a team

Fusewire is a complete contrast to Ratt , preferring to deal with problems in a heavy handed manner.
He excelled at explosive and heavy ordinance during his academy days and would often demonstrate an uncanny ability of just how much force was required to remove obstacles.
His area of expertise was put to use by assigning him to infiltration and disruption squads, sent behind enemy lines to destroy lines of communication and defense prior to the main assault.
He was renowned for his use of boobie traps to catch unsuspecting enemy strongholds and troops alike

As a team Ratt and Fusewire work well together , complementing Hammer brute force with silent fineness in order to get the job done

Thanks Matt

Ratt, is original paint except Forearms,Elbows, Hands and Knees.
Helmet Is A Recast painted from scratch.

Fusewire is all Original Airborne except the helmet which is again a recast and Painted

The base color for the orange is Revell Lufthansa Yellow ( part of the extras you will be getting includes a pot spider).
 
Here's a quickie, been unhappy with the airborne/Bacarra chest harness and needed a spare for another incomplete custom ( Fusewire) so decided to make my own.
Utilized styrene and some pleather to make the texture more believable, molded it up an cast it
I then placed the cast in hot water to get the contour of the chest armor matched perfectly
The Harness and buckles are all hand made/recasts
Hope you like the end results

Pre Christmas Update, while I've been off this week put some serious dolly time in.
Got all artistic with the sideshow bases cos I got bored with the standard ones.
These are supposed to be based on the Exclusive base idea.
Let me know what you all think
