Dec0da Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 (edited) Since I Have some Free Weekends this month....Decided to make a Simple Base For This one : Already Scratch-built a simple "Mototok" type Tug out of cardboard pieces and some guitar strings to go along a hand painted Deck Base And last week , I started sculpting a couple of figures out of epoxy clay Sure, I can buy some online... but it seems more fun to make em myself.... and its super super super cheap So,here we go The supplies : Indians would really appreciate these, I believe The Colours are mostly basic, so any colour i need...I have to mix them myself ...super cheap..love em Epoxy Clay... dries hard, water soluble initially...i also use it for filling gaps in model joints...extremely cheap... Love it clear resin epoxy, colour inks...for making transparency... Don't have clear acrylic paints here ...not for cheap atleast...so i make my own work around... comparatively cheap.... Works!!! varnishes...the usual stuff Edited January 18, 2020 by Dec0da 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
