Shinki Creation info wanted

Post by RokuShinkiMaster » Fri Apr 18, 2014 9:54 am

I would like to create a shinki head from one of the shinkies that I already have.
I use Amazing Mold Putty and Liquid Latex when making molds. But If I make the mold will the eyes come off of the original?

i've never actually done molds before, but i would guess that if you use an effective release compound then you should be alright, the release should keep the mold from sticking to the paint.
good luck!

Thanks, any information is very helpful.

I got impatient and got the courage to attempt to replicate Shinki Hair. I have made multiple molds but Im not posting pictures of the molds or the casts till I find one I can be proud of.
Wish me luck ^_^;

If you need a fine mold for hair and face, I suggest silicone is the best choice for mold.

here is how to make silicone mold and cast resin
