Ahoy! This time we're taking a look at a modeling technique I've used from time to time. Casting your own models is a fun experiment, no matter how crude. This item was a challenge but smaller organic shapes are where this really shines, such as a small icon or gemstone you'd like to copy over to another figure. 

Enjoy!

I also half expected you to pour some resin into the mold... Nice video! I would have loved to see how you got the mold off the original door . I was a bit worried it might break and would have been good to see how much wiggle/pressure the materials can take

Very cool. I would like to make my own bases too, that would be rad.

Thanks, Kai! It popped right off the original mold, it was almost too easy. I picked at it a little off camera to test the bond and wasn't expecting it to be so easy. Properly coating it in lube was the key.
