So Ive seen people say stuff like they casted a shield or a weapon because they couldnt find it.

Is there a nice definitive guide somewhere on what you need and how to do this? Im very interested.

You know.....for how readily available YouTube is I constantly forget. But still I'd rather consult ppl on this site who in my opinion are the best bet to get my answers.

I recommend the mold star 15 but get the slow set beginners kit for more working time.

You can also use instant mould but there was a guide I can't find it but I think ukfb made it about a set by tiranti or something like that and his guide was from wen he made mindless theoden - I'm sure if you asked him he could send you in the right direction

It makes nice one of a kind press molds. Takes practice.

If your doing a shield instant mould is simple to use as it is flt on one side or if your duplicating casualties or like I did first, use eft scenery and take a press mould of it use gs and once the replica is harder just cut it to size to fits your goblin bases and it is really effective
