Hey Boba, you think you'd mind sharing how you made the mold? Maybe we can collaborate our ideas you know, become more proficient and stuff. Just a thought.

Nice custom work, can't wait to see the finished product

Sick looking cast, that opens the door for a whole lot of customizing!

I plucked all the dreds off my elder head and imbedded the head in clay and made a two part mold of the head and molded the mandables seperately.and then made 5 molds of the dreds also.thats pretty much all I did.I am working on a mold of the other avp predators head now.

 

[Elder_Predator2]

Thats what I was thinking, I was asked by a friend if I would be molding the heads too. If you don't mind I may. I had a few ideas, like a clear, or semi-translucent urethane.
