    And @Warden I do agree I liked the other weapon more but trying to have more cohesive look. I would like to make a mayan army but I'm making models more to how I feel looks cool.than trying to keep a look...if that makes sense....like I have no real build plan when I jump into a project...just blue tack bits together and see what looks cool ^_:

    Thanks @NIGHTBRINGER the mould is lot better than the ones I've done in the past I just need to find a softer moulding material because this 50/50 mix of green stuff and yellow Millput is a little too rigid and doesn't fill in to the easily I think that's why I'm getting these imperfect and really thick mould Lines.

    Anyone have some suggestions *_*

    I read pretty good things about some moulding material, it was called.... *searching for it*

    ...I think it was this one. Also it is at least almost BPA free which is a good thing.

    But you could also try silicone moulds. I have no clue about moulding but I heard they have some advantages.

    The paint is great, very realistic and detailed. But why is there a giant melt hole in the plastic? I'm assuming I missed something, lol.

    Very nice! Yeah that's too bad that your details will be covered, haha. At least we'll all know the extra work you did :)

    Is that the same putty-skink from earlier?

    Awesome! Specially like the green metal! Is it just silver glazed over with green?

    I´m sorry to hear you had to throw away so much green stuff :(
