Just Finished Slush-Casting My Kylo Ren Sculpt!

I've just finished, for the first time ever, sculpting, molding, and casting a project in resin. I am stoked beyond belief.

It's super rough, and as stated, my first time ever doing this kind of project, so I anticipate a great deal of sanding and a small amount of bondo before it's ready to paint. I also see that the brow ridges are a bit wobbly, so I'll go over those with the polishing tool on my dremel. I might also end up doing another sculpt, or kitbashing a black series helmet if I want to try anything with the 501st. (I fear that in addition to everything else, the helmet turned out a touch too large.)

Nonetheless, I though I'd show this off, get some advice on painting, and bask in my new-found ability to turn discrete objects into plastic.

You have just taken an important step into the wonderful world of building replica props.;)

Great work so far, well done!!:D....now chop, chop, get busy and work on it some more!
 
Congratulations on your first pull !!

looks great paint wise i think a satin black and alclad/spazstix would look great for detailing
 
I'm glad you like it! I appreciate your recommendation for the chrome paint. Was also thinking about using aluminum tape. Do you have any experience with that?
