lee, for someone who is not a big fan of the P2, you really really make it seem like its your number one! thats awesome! im soo jealous that i most likely wont be able to afford it (in time since there are limited copies) doing the project i have started. MAJOR bummer. But, the finished product, will most likely be my screensaver. lol

good luck with the casting, hope it comes out for you. I cant wait untl you start painting it.
As Nagash and a couple of other people asked about how im molding etc, i took these quickly.
1st pic show the new teeth sculpted in super scupley.
The next pic, is all the things apart from silicone used to make a mold ( again this is only the way i do it, not right or wrong, just my way )
Super glue/teeth/ 2 pins for the clay teeth ( explained below ) and a cereal box to make the mold boxes from.
I then make 2 boxes, 1 for the bigger teeth and 1 for the smaller teeth. A single drop of super glue is used to secure the teeth to the inside of the box, leaving roughly 5-10mm between them. The clay teeth will not glue to the cardboard box, so i push a 1inch pin through the bottom of the box into the clay, securing it enough to the box for molding.
You can see the 2boxes in different states, the big teeth box has been made and the small teeth box is ready to be made up, its easier to glue the small teeth before the box is made for for me anyway hehe.
Then once the boxes are made you pour in your silicone, i pour from about 18 inches above the boxes into one corner, letting the silicone flood/fill around the teeth and rise to the topof the box.
After 24hrs ish you can break off the boxes, and just pop the teeth out, here you can see the P2 film teeth still in the mold, the clay teeth half way out , and all the smaller teeth have been removed from their mold.
then you just pour in your fast cast resin, and you have teeth, which is what ill do when i get resin, which is now on theway along with plaster and latex wooohoooooo.

Thanks and welcome Bob.
Well all the molding materials finally arrived.
BUT
As im working until next weekend ( then have visitors ) i will not have time to mold this for around 10 more days, so im going to take that time to go back in a add some more detail to certain places.
Looking forward to trying the P2 paint up
