Oh, this looks incredible! I recently ordered a very rare unreleased toy that is missing a few components that most fortunately have duplicates (the same piece six times but missing two), and everything I've been looking at is prohibitively expensive (several hundred USD). The fidelity of the minis you made with this tutorial are incredible and I think more than sufficient for what I'm doing, and evidently I can get an entire setup for like $25 USD. I'm going to try it; wish me luck! Thank you for posting this! UPDATE: it worked perfectly! This stuff is basically a miracle product and cut a $200-$400 repair down to only $30! 11/10 would recommend to any sort of toy repair

Just out of curiosity, what material did you fill the mold with? A two part epoxy from a hardware store, or something else? Great to hear someone had such good results! I got a ton of fantasy bits, but very few body’s to put them on, so was planning to make extras for personal use.

Heh, funny to see you hear. Love your videos man. Quick tip for everyone btw: using a hair dryer to make the blue stuff malleable is easier and quicker. For millput, mix it for 5 mins and let it sit for 10 to 20 mins, the milliput will be soft enough to press into the mold, but won't be too soft to break apart or leave too much residue/bits on the mold or hands. I heard about using a little bit of baby powder in the blue stuff molds to get better detail, but havent tried it yet.

This stuff has been around in Japan for a while and I always find that using polyester putty or tamiya light curing putty or uv bondic type resin. Since its transparent light curing putty's are very nice to work with and get into all the corners without the worry of dry time. Good luck! Also for complicated molds throw some talc powder inside molds then, Blow it out leaving tiny film of powder this will help with pulling putty out and keeps mold together for duplicates

Extremely helpful tutorial! I got back into fantasy table-top gaming and the miniatures when the pandemic hit. I have several "odd lots" of boxes that contained incomplete or broken minis. I'm now using this method for making the missing pieces by molding a complete piece from an identical miniature. I've resurrected about 80 minis in a month that would have gone into the melting pot otherwise. Thanks sooo much for sharing!

I had a go with this stuff, and had trouble. The plastic stays soft for a very short time indeed. I used water that had just boiled, and when I took the soft plastic out, I had just a few seconds to make a mould, and it took four attempts to make my first one. Then, mixing the Milliput took quite a while, and then getting the putty into the far corners and undercuts of the mould was very difficult.

@Kosake86 7 жыл бұрын

Hm... Maybe use a sculpting tool for the corners. As to the processing time, it depends on the actual temperature. Did you use a metal bowl? that sucks up a lot of thermal energy. Also, some people have more problems touching hot materials than others. I've seen People handle stuff without mittens that others would immediately drop.

@TheMwnciboo 7 жыл бұрын

A better way i have found is to buy two part liquid resin, the 1st part is to make a lego box, put half the (hot/warm) instant mould in the bottom jam it down hard, the press the part you want to make down into it. leave it in there. get the 2nd half hot, push it in on top. when it cools, pull them part, make a channel, mix up the resin, pour it in done. (test the volume 1st with water to work out the volume needed).

Protip for those difficult parts to cast (eg: necron immortal pair of legs) If you don't want to cut the original piece or try to make 3 part molds you can actually cover most of the details of the model with the blue stuff, once the cast is ready remove the piece and then fill it with milliput, wait for it to dry, retire the upper part (usually the one with less contact with the original piece), just immerse into water the other part of the mold, this will make it softer, allowing you to remove it far easier from fragile parts without damaging them. Of course after this the mold would end warped, but that's no problem, if you still need it just cast the part again, you will get to clone fragile parts such as necron legs, chaos spikes, etc. without having to resculpt them or paste the broken bits, actually saving time.

Greetings from Australia.This is a great tutorial. I have just ordered some Blue Stuff from Spain. This will make great molds for my fishing lure making hobby. Thank you for showing the qualities and characteristics of blue stuff. From my own experience of mold making, if you want to reduce the excess epoxy putty from forming 'flash' you could try making some excess sprue escape holes by pushing soft solder wire onto the blue stuff mold at strategic points when you form your mold. This will then give the excess epoxy putty somewhere to go when you force the two halves together. Soft solder will easily follow the uneven surface of the mold half. Regards Dave

They are great for one sized molds, and good for two sided molds for small parts.

Either bad quality epoxy putty, improper mixing (not thorough enough or wrong proportions), old material or whatever you're using is not actually a two-part epo putty. A two-part epo putty contains the working material in one part and a hardener in the other - if thoroughly mixed, it has everything inside of it to make it harden and there should be little to no difference between the outside and inside. The effect you're describing is more common with air-dry materials or materials that use moisture in the air to advance the reaction (like type I silicone).

I could see this being used to replicate parts that you would rather not destroy through kit bashing. And it is the fastest way to figure out who is an elitist a-hole.

For me it would be making extra parts you don't receive enough of (Bolt Action Player, you only get FOUR Springfield rifles for a box of 30 figures.)

No this is the fastest way: "I just 3d scan each kit I buy and print the parts I need as I need them. Seriously dude, my army cost like, 245 total. Counting the printer and resin. You payed what... 500 bucks for those Orks? Lol." Seriously though, get a resin printer. Saves you so much cash.

It doesn't look like it captures detail very well.

@VoltisArt 5 жыл бұрын

Part of that is down to the method. The blue putty still looked wet during its molding, capturing some water, and the user was going pretty quickly with the epoxy, which itself seemed to be a bit thick for fine detail. I think this stuff did pretty well, for basically being high-temp silly putty.

@ARescueToaster 5 жыл бұрын

A lot of TLC and a fair bit of luck is required to get even some of the finer detail to transfer over.. don't expect it to be a perfect (or even close) mirror of the original piece being molded. They will almost always look like they have a really thick coat of primer on them :p

Really depends on the country, in some it's illegal even for personal use, as far as i know though in most countries it falls on a grey area of legality, which means that juries/judges will decide if yours is fair use or not because there's not a strict law on it

@ScooterinAB 5 жыл бұрын

Considering that the detail is completely lost, I doubt GW really cares. Casting has been around for a long time, and this isn't even the best method (again, the detail is lost because the material is too soft and pliable).
