Krytone · « **Reply #314 on:** Wed, 24 June 2015, 11:50:22 »

The purple is a topre from Metallikrap where the buyer didnt want it anymore so its stuck with me. lol. And its from the old mold and the red and orange one is from the new mold with better lines and stem.

And since you guys love the orange, just some more potato shots.

There should be since these are new colors i bought to test and seems that they came out better than i expected. Florescent colors of orange and pink. So now that i know they mix well with resin, ill probably buy more of different colors

I've been reading lately about molding and casting and thinking to give it a shot. Your caps are the reason

You just pour the first color in the mold then let it cure then pour the second color then seal the mold and let it cure until it sets. same concept for multishots. Make sure your design can handle non-single shot which usually is possible for thick caps cause of the clearance from the top of the cap to the top of the stem.

Good luck with your venture

Thanks for sharing. Are you using only a 2 part mold? By design do you mean where the sprues are to be located?

Krytone · « **Reply #339 on:** Fri, 26 June 2015, 03:39:11 »

2 part mold but no sprues. i tried that but didnt work for me hence i do all without sprues. the only problem is bubbles in the bottom walls but that can be fixed by degassing and pressure.

The whole process from master creation to mold making and casting is a different matter all together and cannot be described in one sentence. lol

Loving your new work with the diagonal skulls. It's almost like a blank with just the outline making it really interesting!

Will you be able to have just the skull part colored on the diagonal skull?

Pour first color and let it cure then pour second color. It would have a different mix effect if you pour the second color after just pouring the first one.
