Thrown shapes look very good,brie white currently helps a lot too to carry the message....
The red sniper is a bit new...red being not a usually known color for stealth... But wip is wip

Thanks Vik.
Yeah, the one occasion where the white milliput actually helps.
The main reason he's red is that I have pretty much run out of main colours to use on the guardians and I don't have a bright red one (for the Saim-Hann craftword), so he completes the collection. The cloak will make up for any non-stealthiness of the red (think of the elven cloaks from TLOTR ).

dsteingass wrote:@Vik either Sugar Bombs or scrap metal I'd assume

Or Cherry bombs. I've lost count of the number of them I've found in bathrooms (although usually in broken toilets)...

Lovely toilet bowl! like I said, I have some tile ready to house such a throne!

Thanks Dave. I am excited to see what you do with them.

Good News!
The Oyumaru has arrived

I can now have a play about with it and start making masters for casting.

And the FO toilet is as far as I can take it here.

It's not exact, but maybe I will be able to alter things at a later date as the card skeleton is preventing me from carving too much away in places (and I don't want to accidentally damage this one).
The cistern is not glued in place as I think it will be much easier to cast them separate... (this is as far as I have got with thoughts about how this will be cast, more thinking is needed but the Oyumaru will help in the testing stages).

That is all for now.

Yeah. Reusable press-moulds basically. Just add hot water.
I don't know how it behaves yet, but from what I gather it gets soft enough to mould it into any shape and you can cut it up and stick it back together and maybe (hopefully) make 2-part moulds.

I shall report back on my adventures with it as I attempt to make copies of my creations , but I will definitely not be using it for recasting any miniatures or their bits...

Thanks Weety. Yeah, toilets are kind of a niche within the modelling market, but someone has to fill them...

I will be making more objects in the future, so if there is something you think you may need and can't find, let me know. Although you have proven to be perfectly capable of creating such things yourself.

Sinks would be nice additions!..and tubs too!
The faucets and other hardware might be tricky to cast though...

Thanks Galorn. I'll cross the bridges when I get there...

Well I couldn't help myself and had to have a play with the Oyumaru.
My first impression was that this stuff FLOATS in water. For something that you are told to put in water I was surprised that it wasn't at least neutrally buoyant. But it's not a problem as it still seems to heat up evenly and is easy to fish out of your chosen container.

Second impression is that it gets really soft. kind of like blu-tack that you have really well kneaded or softer than mixed milliput. When cold, it's like a hard, but flexible plastic.

So for my first test I wanted something that only has one side with both a simple shape and fine detail.
The nearest thing I had of that description was a base.
Together with a flat surface it's very easy to get the whole shape of the base and it picks up all the little rough detail on the top of the base.

Second test was to see if two-part moulds are possible. So I pressed a mystery object into one piece of Oyumaru, let that cool and then pressed a second piece on top of that. They only lightly stuck together and were easily peeled apart thanks to the flexible nature. The final mould looks perfectly good although I should have added registration points so will probably need to redo it to get a proper mould. But works well.
The second piece even picked up the fingerprints from the first piece, so this stuff is really good for details.
