Fun with blue stuff
Amazon storefront link that has some of my most used hobby products for you to take a look at,
These are links to products I have used from the most popular sellers, as ever if you have a local hobby store that stocks this stuff please support them - they are the centres of your hobby community - if not then feel free to use the links through amazon and I get a little commission that helps the channel, (prices change on Amazon frequently - these are suppliers I have used as they were good value when i used them)
www.amazon.co.uk/shop/adamsho...
My Linktree thingy where you can find links to my eBay (I sell projects sometimes instantly when I’ve finished them, sometimes years later) and Facebook/Instagram etc ..

underrated use: Fixing mistakes. Like when I was suffering from insomnia and decided to build a model and accidentally chopped a gun barrel off thinking it was part of the sprue. It was either free battle damage or just make a mold of his identical twin

I tried mold making years ago but just had issues with the materials and the resin not setting correctly or having all sorts of air bubbles. This is a much more user friendly and less messy process. That Sentinel turned out great; frankly don't care what GW or anyone else thinks making replacement or entire models, so long as it's for personal use.

For me it’s taken quite a lot of practice and experimenting over the years to get to this point, I do still use rubber molds and resin but I find it much harder and has more issues than this method, I find the only limit with blue stuff can be size, rubber molds are easier when doing bigger projects. Glad you liked the vid!

Great work as usual dude. I love blue stuff, I’m 90% sure that it was your video on making a chronomancer and the previous blue stuff video, oh and the DG daemon prince that got me started with this. Thank you, you never fail to inspire 👍🏻 Have fun and stay safe dude 😁

Thanks mate 😃 just wanted to do an update to that video as although I still do most things the same I’ve gradually experimented and have added a couple of things into how I use it, loved doing that chronomancer, still one of my most enjoyable builds!

Had purchased a mortarion model second hand off ebay, missing a wing and a ton of bits and wasn’t sure what to do, but this video may be the answers to all my questions! Great video!

A friend made casts of mortarions wings for a daemon Prince conversion so it can definitely be done, the challenge on yours would be making it fit the opposite side to what it’s designed to do, should be a fun project! One thing to think of is putting some internal wires to the wings to give it some additional strength.

This is perfect. I am looking to make up some classic early 2000’s fantasy armies and buying a ton of old models will be costly but if I can recast parts that will make it so much easier and allow more customisation

This sort of casting is ideal for older models that are more static poses than modern minis, hope it works well for you!

Compiling a shopping list for my hobby room, and this video is the reason why Blue Stuff and Miliput are included. Looking forward to mess around moulding some gubbins for my models.

Great video, very informative. I'm gonna try to clone some cadian shock troops torsos and legs, so I can build more variants from the kit. I'm wondering if it's even doable though without losing all the small details.

Really usefull tips & funnily enough Im at the part of the hobby where Im eyeing my bluestuff & sprue goo Good timing :D The only issue Ive had with bluestuff is lines in the material & Im assuming its cooling before I get it set. Thermos will help.

I found that once I started using it a few years ago I can’t now stop! So much you can do with it and the more you use it the more you learn. Thermos definitely helps with keeping the blue stuff workable.
