Re: SS Betty (Alien Resurrection)
The size of this give me a physical punch.
Recently, I found some CGI of Betty at the AC3D site and it realized me again this is going to be a great build. Alien Resurection:Betty - AC3D Forums |

The Dims are 12.5 Diameter Base, 9 inch high and the upper diameter is 4.50 inches. so its going to be big and have to be broken into sections to be printed. then assembled and molded.

Re: SS Betty (Alien Resurrection)
Got some molds done, came out great, brushed the first coat on to get the silicone into all the fine details to ensure no air bubbles. then vibrated the table for a few minutes to lift any air bubbles to the top. Next will Gel coat the molds and lay up Epoxy fiberglass for the parts.

Re: SS Betty (Alien Resurrection)
How was your shooting, Al-san ?
I really want to shoo the live ammo from a real gun !! That's the greatest mold I've ever saw. Cant wait to see the first pull. The color looks like the thing I saw at the dentist office. katsu |
