For legs you may need to use the green stuff over an armature. But, try it with sprue first. Never ever hurts to experiment... on non-living subjects anyway.

Tub cleaned up very well indeed. Drain?

Thanks Red. I've not had a close look at the feet yet, so I don't know what I am aiming for. I have plenty of sprue to practice on, that's for sure.

There will be a drain hole and overflow. This may involve tiny drills.

Yep, this is the joy of Oyumaru; when you can make a mould of anything and then reuse it to mould something else, you tend to start moulding everything.
I was going to have to mould it at some point, may as well be before adding the putty.

I have moulded the cleaned up bath and hand dryer today. They need a little tidy up themselves and then it will be time for details on the bath.

Thanks OMN.

Their's are also larger than mine (13mm to the seat compared to my 9mm),
Their's are more expensive (more than twice the price actually),
They do have a seat, which mine don't currently have, but I plan to make seats when I get around to a mark II version of the Tainted toilets.
I also don't quite see how their toilet bowl fits with the seat. They look different shapes...
and they don't have a cistern.
Nice detail though.

dsteingass wrote:Fantastic! I also see the left as the copies...
Thanks Dave.
I'm not sure, the left ones might be the copies, I can't remember. The left dryer is the copy. Bath, maybe.

Feet... claws... whatever you call them, are in progress (just need to copy these to make 2 full sets)

And I thought I'd show a use of Oyumaru that you may not have considered:

I made a mould of the bottom of the bath (I could have used the mould that was used to cast the bath copy, but I cut that one up trying to make these feet a different way).

I then made a mould of the inside of that first mould. So I have a piece of Oyumaru the shape of the outside of a bath.

Then you add putty to that mould to make the feet attachment parts. I was going to add the actual feet carved from sprue, but I had left over putty at this stage and so used that to make the feet as well.

These don't stick to the Oyumaru and can be popped off and will now fit perfectly onto the baths. Had I made these straight onto the bath, they would likely have been stuck to them. This way, I have separate feet for those that don't want to use them.

At the final stage you can sand/carve the correct shape for the feet. One of mine didn't quite work out right and another broke, but the two left (one front and one rear conveniently) can be used to make the other two. They do fit and this will make them all identical looking anyway.



Thanks. Hope that is useful to someone.

It does come in many colours and some packs are only one colour, so you can choose (if you're not looking for the cheapest of cheap deals like I did).
I started the pack at the lighter coloured end (clear, clear with sparkly bits, orange, pink, red...) as I wanted to be able to see through the Oyumaru to check that I was filling the mould cavity properly while I practised with the stuff. It's quite useful being able to see this.

Yeah, the feet might be tough, given that they are so tiny.
I got the copies done. Tidied all four up and they are now being copied again to make the second set.

And the copies as they are just out of the mould.

Then a couple of shots of checking the fit of the copies on a bath.

Tsk, I totally missed this (blame me not searching this board very often because of all the 40k spam). Good to see you're finishing off the bathroom set. I'm still waiting on my Vault (where the bulk of the toilets I bought from you are planned to be used. ...Vault 60, where every chair was swapped out for a toilet), but those would be useful with any old generic terrain really. With that bath, even though they don't have them in the games, you could stick on a shower head and rail perhaps, youknow just for added variety. I like the hand dryer actually. I mean people remember the big things like vending machines, but I'm actually more interested in little bits like those (uh, hint hint. Ooh kitchen items would be cool too ^^).

Hmn, looking at that bath I just keep thinking about one of these. Make an upgrade kit!



Oh, and not to thread jack, but you may be interest in this thread. The owner's making a load of bits and pieces from Fallout 3, and as of the moment isn't retailing them, but I donno, his techniques or whatever might be interesting.

Spoiler:


Edit:

And have you and idea when you might be putting these out? I have some stuff to work on at the moment, but my next project includes a few trailer park caravans which could use bathrooms. I'm not entirely sure that they'll have the space to fit in baths though (I guess showers are a bit more practical, but when've you seen a shower in Fallout?), but I'm sure I could find a use for them somewhere.

Lo Wyrmalla. Well this thread is not devoid of 40k either, but will have a mix of things as I progress. (there's some hobbits coming soon)
Thanks.
Well, maybe I'll add upgrades like showers etc. at a later date. I'm so close to getting this done I don't really want to be adding more now.

I'm sure I will eventually work my way through the typical Fallout house. Pretty much have to, as I like my collections, complete in all details.

Interesting (and nice) looking stuff there. He has a head start on me for vault things. Oh I'm going to have to get around to vault things eventually too...

Soon... ish. (I say that a lot )
But really:
The hand-dryer is done and ready.
The sinks are pretty much ready (just want to check them over and maybe clean some bits).
The baths just need the tap built...

...and I was hoping to have something to show today in a tap shape, but the overflow holes that you may have seen above weren't quite central enough and adding holes for the tap pipes really showed how far off it was. So I've had to fill those holes and will wait until that cures completely before attempting to re-drill the required holes.

Once those are built, the baths are done (barring a final check over). I should get around to ordering more silicone and resin and then I'll be back on the fun that is moulding (planning the moulds is always a good way to get the brain cells exercised) and casting... I'm not sure how long that took with the toilets and boxes, but I am more practised this time, so should be smoother and quicker.

Thanks for popping in.

Progress on the taps.

Holes have been re-drilled.

Plastic rod was inserted and then a third piece was glued between them.

The whole piece slides in and out of the holes and gives you the position for the tap attachment and the "in" pipes on the outside of the bath.

The up-and-bend over pipe... was a pain.
Tried in it plastic rod, but could not get it to hold the shape.
Ended up making them from copper wire. Not ideal as I wanted to just glue to the other pieces and now I have to drill a hole in the pipe...

Drilled a hole (0.7mm) in the cross/mix pipe (1.2mm).
Not quite central, but got away with it on the first tap.
The second tap was broken and I've re-glued a cross pipe into that one.

It's not perfect, but I think it'll do.


Still have the actual tap handles to do (probably a job for sprue) and then I need to make some putty masters of them (good thing Oyumaru can be cut up) and then I have to decide how to dismantle the taps so that they can be cast properly...

And with the handles on...
These are a bit big at the moment, but when I get the putty casts of them done, I can sand them down to their proper shape and size.


I may have to cut these into 3 pieces to cast them. I only really wanted 2 pieces, but can't see a way to achieve that easily.
I've tried some whole putty casts with Oyumaru, but I'm not sure they will work as it was difficult to fill the tiny cavities in a mould that had been cut up so much to release the originals (hence the 3 pieces). Will have to see when it's cured.

And if it doesn't work out, use an armature and green stuff. The tub is looking really nice. Will there be kitchen bits next? (I'll have to get started on some of that for my secondary project, the guethouse)

I don't think I could putty that small. Technically these are oversized for the scale, but any smaller and they would be too fragile to be of any use.
Anyway, I could probably cut the originals easier than their putty copies. I'll work something out.

Not given much thought as to what is next. I have a very long list, but it's in no particular order. I'll do whatever people want doing (no point making and selling things people don't ask for...). I could move on to the kitchen if that's what people want. It can't be harder than some of the bathroom things... (famous last words).

I can see you're using some rod that's thicker than the pipes in the came, which is appreciated as unlike some others (nae names) you're actually taking into account that crap like that has a tendency to snap. Ideally those taps wouldn't come in more than one part, but if that would make them a bitch to cast then its whatever works. With the size though they look like they could be a bit fiddly to work with though, but I suppose not a total hassle (heh, I'm just griping about my own butter fingered habits though).

Oh I'd appreciate an oven, a fridge, washing machine, and one of those metal wall sinks too (which could easy be turned into a work top sink too). Hmn, lemme think. If you're doing bathroom bits then a urinal could round off the bits. Cubical walls and doors would be fine too, but those would be easy for people to make themselves. Um, now that I'm thinking about it what about some living room items? A radio, clock (the star shaped one), end table, and well any of the chair types could be useful.

Can't say I don't listen to feedback, after a certain person ( ) said about the pipe for the cistern of the Tainted toilet was a bit thin, I thought I'd keep these fairly chunky.

Yeah, I would have liked to cast these in one or two pieces (one would have been fantastic), but with the way the handles stick up, the two pipes at the back and the hook of the spout, it's just not possible. I will try and make the construction foolproof though.

Oh yeah, got to do urinals, and should do the vault versions of the sink and toilet. They can be next, maybe. And I'll look at kitchen and other household things. I'll have to have a run about some houses and get some screenshots of everything.

So after many attempts at getting good casts that work from a moulding, casting and building sense, I've settled on 2 piece taps.

Trying to get a cast in a single piece was not possible. Even with cutting the Oyumaru mould into pieces around the casts they still didn't survive and I was left with a pile of rubble.

I also tried a 3 piece tap, where the spout and a part of the mixer pipe were in one piece and was to be glued between the two tap parts.
While possible to cast easily, they prove a bit too tricky to put together in a seamless way (to the point that is would be better to make them from scratch each time).

I therefore ended up with 2 piece taps, where you just have to add the spout to the rest of the tap assembly. This should prove easiest for everyone involved.


That is therefore the putty masters done for the baths to go with the masters of the sinks and hand-dryers.
I'll be ordering the silicone and resin soon and then production will begin.
And when I say production, I mean much head scratching over how to lay out the moulds...

Thanks Red. It's not necessarily difficult, I just have to think very hard about what is the most efficient way to lay out the pieces to use the least amount of silicone and resin, and not trap any bubbles while casting.

I'm betting that the faucet can do double duty for utility sinks and troughs etc.
It's possible to use them for whatever, I can't remember what the other taps look like on the other in-game sinks and things. But yes, if the mould turns out well, I'll make use of these for future items. Same with the taps on the sinks, they will be good for other things, as mentioned by Vik.

The silicone and resin arrived today and I got right on it. I've poured the first half of the first mould; Sink mould.

You will notice that I kept the tap handles separate so I can cast extras for other means without having to cast the sinks.

Will have to wait until tomorrow before I can see if it worked, should be cured by 4am.

I now have sink mould... that is, a sink mould.

Wasn't all plain sailing though. I forgot the registration keys in the first half and had to cut them in to the silicone and then, when checking and positioning the pieces in the silicone, one of the taps (powered by the elastic nature of the silicone) went flying across my room never to be seen again. I made a replacement tap and will have to wait and see if that one comes out looking like a tap or I will get 1 in 6 being junk. That is... assuming the others come out well in the mould...



Something else I did differently this time was the channels. Whereas for the boxes and toilets I added all the channels in the mould, this time I only had the main channels represented by sprue (keeping with the wood texture sprue ) and the smaller channels and air-release channels I cut in afterwards.

Both halves appear to work with water (which I'm quite surprised by really), so fingers crossed that they will work with resin.

Next up, Bath mould.

Vaccuum the area beforehand. And use a hand vac if something is lost. It'll end up in the vac. Trust me on this.

Unless the area is carpeted.

Next step is the pay-off. Gonna be good to see

Sadly, that particular corner does not get vacuumed often, the whole room is carpeted, we don't have a hand vac', and there's no guarantee that it actually landed in the area (it may not have even reached the ground)...

I did get on my hands and knees with a torch to see if I could find it, but no, gone. I did find a tiny screw I lost ages ago, but no tap.

I tend to work with a plastic tray (actually the top of a box of crackers if you must know) on my lap to catch anything I drop. But a tiny, grey object, moving very fast, off to my right is not to be found again. I can't even be sure of the exact direction. *shrugs* Will have to see how the mould works, I may never need to make another tap again.

I've started laying out the mould for the baths and should get, at least, one half done tomorrow, if not both.
Then I have the last box to mould and I'll be ready to start casting again.
