Hi Guys,
Darth Will here. I haven't posted in a long time but I just finished a project
and wanted to show him off.
It's Chopper from Star Wars Rebels.
Check out the video and let me know what you think. :)

Thanks for tip on the mold release. It was also included in the kit so it's getting used.
Since the first mold worked, I made up a couple more. One is for Kayla's Mini Build.

Ordered this Mold Making and Casting starter kit. I always wanted to mold and cast something for myself but never had anything I needed multiples of... till now.
My very first mold.
And my first cast.
Original on left, resin cast on the right. Whoo hoo. It worked!
I bought these masks. I'm thinking I can glue one inside the Predator head and that would secure it to my head.
Batman won.
The Batman mask came with a small elastic string. I took it off and added a thicker strap.

One can of plasti-dip covered 19 dreads. This is 25 drying. Will do the rest tomorrow.
For the experts out there, is one coat enough or do I have to go over them again?
I've read to use perma-wet after using the plasti-dip. Is it necessary?
I'm hoping one coat is good to go.
I bought 4 different sizes of backer rod to play with. Each roll is 100 feet long.
That's 400 feet and I need 40 dreads.
So, 10 foot long dreads. Does that sound right?
