Title: ToriiKey - Bimbling about with keycaps
Post by: ToriiKey on Thu, 07 September 2017, 04:31:31
So decided to load up the wagon with supplies and set my sights way-out-west where the trailblazers have been and discovered glorious new lands of sparkly, shiny, glow-in-the-dark-y keys to enjoy! I'm just playing with different ideas and making some epic mistakes but hopefully can learn from fellow crafters to make things bigger, better and With Better Stems(TM)!  ;D

Some of these casts were made before my pressure pot arrived, hence the bubbles (especially in the Ice Giant's beard)

My Casting Setup
Man-cave pics to follow...

Ammonite
He's a little big and doesn't like sharing space with his neighbours - works great for my escape key currently though. Working on a V2 sculpt to improve...

Tank
He's rough and ready (not a patch on Taylorisg's!)

Jizo
A great-gurning happy-chappy

Giants Causaeway
Or a meteorite, depending on how far away you are from it!

Thanks bud, the Ammonite fossil is one I've been wanting to do in my head for ages, working on the next version which will be more accommodating to its neighbours  ;D
