Hello all,

Just a quick thread to see if there are any answers. Myself and a mate have been do a bit of converting for a while and through quite experienced with green stuff now, there is an element we keep reading about that we somehow miss.

It is the stuff for making moulds which you can then, once dry, fill with green stuff and get a relief mould?

If anyone knows of a brand name of this stuff then it would be very useful to have, i have had a look on dak, but perhaps my search fields are incorrect as im getting nuttin'!

Cheers

Green stuff.
Milliput.

Brown stuff.
Procreate.

All can be used for this procedure.
The important thing is to lubricate the mould with a thin smear of vaseline or something before pushing the fresh GS into it, to stop the GS sticking to it.

Dude, that is amazingly helpful, thank you.

Hopefully upload some fresh stuff soon.

The world is my proverbial oyster now!

You're probably better off using a pourable liquid resin if you want to cast your own minis. Smooth-on's starter kit is fantastic for that.
