    Regardless of whether it is "real" or "fake", it hurts my heart to watch beautifully made miniatures being burned. For Years i make some Bits myself because you can't see the difference after they have been painted if they are well-made.
  • @JCPRuckus
    Should have kept the molds and made actual wax candles instead... 😁
  • @jagger3781
    burning them and leaving the feet would make awesome death tokens
  • Brilliant! You're not making copying miniatures, you're making scatter terrain for a dragon's lair! Also, save those cut up molds to use as filler for bigger future casts. Saves a ton of dosh.

    Honestly, I would have kept the burn feet, just for scenery.

  • @ScratchBashing
    You can use the cut molds as filler around future silicone pours. Save yourself some of the new materials.

    That's some unlicensed gene seed you've got there, remember kids, say no to gene-dealers.

    I know this is an older video but wanted to say thanks! I have old metal minis that are out of production and have 1 weapon piece between the 7 of them, following this guide means I can finally make the extra weapons I needed. LEGEND! Also I threw a few random ork bits together for a 1-part mold which made some awesome unique scatter terrain :)
  • This is an amazing battle damage tutorial! I cant wait to set fire to my models!
  • @brettevans4857
    Considered using wax in the moulds to make safer candles than resin?
  • I wonder how GW feels about 3D printing? There are lots of tutorials explaining how to 3D print minis. It seems strange GW feels threatened by a simple mold making tutorial🤔
  • @VaSoapman
    You forgot the part where you dump the mix into a separate cup and mix again. This will make sure that you don't get any unmixed materials into any of the molds/parts. Makes the whole thing a bit more consistent. Also a vacuum chamber can get rid of all those air bubbles. But that takes a lot of time and money. Applying vibrations can also help. Modern video game controllers have something like that built in.

    I Use the same teknike for jewlery Looking good But for gods sake Dont squeees the mold, yes you allow air to escape, but allso allow it to enter the mould and you get allot of more cleaing. But a nice video!! Thanks
