Cool, now you know your gonna start the whole debate and points of fact about casting right?

As an aside to that and back to what you did, they look like the unit could be pretty cool when all is said and done. I might suggest adding some thinnned down light green or blue ink into the molding material as an experiment. Maybe to see if you could get that etheral look going on inside the clean. I have no idea if it will work but might be cool.

I concur .

Looks good, you should repost after you prime and basecoat them.

**Aerethan**

As ghosts they won't be primed or painted really. I may toy around with adding inks or washes either during the cast or after it to get a more ghostly finish.

I'm going to post this now, thankfully at the start of the thread...

PLEASE DO NOT TURN THIS INTO A PRO/CON CASTING DEBATE

I agree that mild inking will the way to go.

They look great, just clear the mold lines and assemble and they will look awesome.

**earenciel**

Would 'nt it have a better look if you had molded assembled models .The cement could ruin the effect , cyanoacrilate can blurr the transparency and unless using the same resin to glue it i don't see howw to finish it

**SagesStone**

Just don't use them near a GW store and it'll be all good

I plan on testing out a few different glues to see what works.

As for molding entire pieces: large pieces allow for more errors in the casting and a bad cast is a bigger loss of resources. Unipose models are also boring for whole units.

As for GW stores: wouldn't be caught dead in one.
