im sort of a noob but ive been making terrain for about 6 years and what i found is that making your own casts are the greatest things a person can do. ive been needing sandbags and i made a sandbag out of styrene and i put latex rubber on it it turned into a great mould so what i did was i made a sandbag ring and i latexed that so now i can cast individual sandbags as well as full sandbag rings.

I use a silicon rtv for my casting and moulding. Good flexibility, and excellent detail retention.

Either the blue ultrasil for cold casts (resin) or the red (heat resistant) one by Barnes (can't remember the name - It's been a while since I ran out).


I'm OVER 50 (and so far over everyone's BS, too).
Old enough to know better, young enough to not give a ****.

That is not dead which can eternal lie ...

... and yet, with strange aeons, even death may die.
