If you try to glue them before they are dry, the glue actually erodes the plaster a bit. The Dental Stone is harder than plaster. The stuff I ordered has a compression strength of 9000 PSI, the hardest stuff you can buy is twice that strength at 18000 PSI, but it turns out like Ceramic almost, which isn't really necessary IMHO.

dsteingass wrote:no, with Plaster you don't need a mold-release, if you used Resin however, the molds would wear out much quicker.

Dave, how about a shot of your new Malcador? Maybe even with a russ or chimera hull for scale?
Sure, but it's still unbuilt
Not to be a nudge, but uh... haven't seen those pics yet 
I'm tossing around this idea to build a Valdor Tank Hunter out of that spare Russ chassis I have around, and I think the Valdor has the same tracks as the Malcadors. The clutch pic would be the Malcador track section compared to a Russ track section. 
Thanks for the help, Dave!

The sprues are bigger than I thought they'd be, a good thing nice spacing, and those casts look perfect. Looking forward to getting any of their plastic models now.
Should also look up the lawyer character, one of the things I like about the game is how their rules reflect their background. He's got stuff like red tape, I think it was, which stops them from using an ability or something annoying like that.
I have a couple of the early figures for that reason including these :

I posted the minimum bid on this lot within hours of its posting and did not even log back onto eBay b/c travel and family. Now I am they proud owner.

Thanks for all of the pictures, Dave! They will surely be helpful in my construction (as will all of your WIP shot that are forthcoming, right? )
Could I bother you for one last pic? I wasn't very clear on what I meant by "track section". I'm looking for a side by side (which, I guess, is really front to back ) with the side views of the red track sections for the Malcador and Chimera (not the blue track sections). I have a whole box full of the blue tracks, so I'm glad that they are used, too
This pic would be perfect if it also included the side view of the chimera. The goal is to determine how much modifying I need to do to the Russ hull and tracks.
Thanks, mate! You've been a great help!

So, I am going to obtain an entire set of those molds from galorn, Dave. Yours and his. I think the San Lorenzo Raven sector stuff is so highly customizable that it is just screaming my name beggin for detail and trim.....
I think you floor tiles are amazing, as well.... And so simple. I feel like I could just do it myself but am unsure I could come up with anything original....
Damn it, now I wanna try....
