Hey guys! Since this thread is mainly about Vigors I made a new thread specifically for the Salts bottle, and kicked it off with a couple of my builds :cool

If These Are Made From Real Bottles You Should Sell Them

If Anyone Is Willing To Use Clay Around A Glass Bottle To Make Any Vigor For Me And Post A Pic Or Something That Would Be Great
I'll be starting work on a Murder of Crows bottle for my friend tomorrow that'll be Sculpey on a bottle. Will that work?

Yeah that would be great and if you know the easiest vigour to make and somewhere to get the stuff for it that would be great too
Most of the materials to make these bottles can be found in any craft store. Clay, paint, corks, and (if you want to protect/reinforce the clay) resin can all be found there. Also, the Michaels near me has a lot of bottles that are a perfect match to the Salts bottle in B:I, so that might help too.
When it comes to actual Vigor bottles, the main difficulty is simply finding the bottle itself. When I made my undertow bottle earlier in the this thread, I got the bottle from an antique shop. I know others in this thread have mentioned using liquor bottles. The bottle I'm planning on using for my friend's Murder of Crows is from a fancy glass syrup bottle.
Depending on what you find, you may want to start out with a Salts bottle, since it's the smallest one and the bottle shape for it is fairly common to find compared to what the others require. In terms of actual vigor bottles the easiest one to make is probably Undertow. This is mainly because of the ease of sculpting both the bottle top and the octopus on the bottle surface (at least compared to what the others require). A lot of it also depends on how close you want it to stay to the game, or if you want to base it off a different design. The actual in-game MoC bottle, for example, is turquoise rather then straight black. The Undertow bottle as it appears in-game has the octopus on both sides. In the end, how you design the bottle is up to you depending on what you want from it.

Hey guys, I have finished my Shock Jockey bottle. Sorry it has taken so long. Here are some pictures.
The Fink logo is barely visible in the picture, but it's there.
Now that is really ace-credible. Is it drinkable?

Here's a crazy/stupid/probably won't work idea, but during the casting process you might be able to put a WD40-sprayed party balloon in the middle of the cast in order to ensure a perfect hollow space in the middle, and then when the cast is solid just let the air out and remove the balloon. I know slush casting does hollow spaces but I dunno how good it is at doing hollow spaces for drinking vessels. Just a random thought. Bottle came out awesome regardless.
I just finished up a Murder of Crows bottle for a friend. Forgot to take pictures of the build and I'm kicking myself for not doing a side-by-side with my Undertow bottle:

That one is great. It's one of my favorite of the vigors. The mix of the hood ornament, color, and crystal look are great.

Fantastic!
I was trying to think of ways to create a set of bottles awhile back, there is some really impressive effort on this thread that is definitely reigniting that.
