i think i wrote that in the first post...
anyway, i used vicol glue (don't know if you know what glue is that - it's mainly for wood and paper/cardboard, it's a thick, white glue which turns transparent after it dries) and made the glyphs with a syringe (without a needle obviously).
thing is, it's a very effective way to get detailed glyphs, but it takes a LOT of time, and my hand hurts like hell after a few hours of carefully pumping the glue while trying to draw some shape.
mold you say. that would probably fit, and the size of the pole is not a problem, because actually the new one is a bit more accurate to 8" figures scale. What material would you recommend for a mold? silicone maybe?
