Ryuji

Finished right "head cannon".

Now I will make a copy and separate this part. (it's more easy than try to sculp two identical parts)

Minmay - mini china dress

scale: 1/8

material: polyester putty

Ryuji,

Do you have any plan to finish the MoonGuard Minmay??  I am sure there are plenty of MW members willing to purchase that kit.  Please..please...please...

Yes. I'm planning to finish and produce the Minmay. She is "almost" stopped (sometimes I work in this project )

Hobbyfan will not produce/sell this kit - I'm producing and selling myself and I can accept only Paypal - sorry.

Ryuji,

I went to HobbyFan and they do not have your Komillia up yet just the first two Minmays. Will they still carry the model? I would order direct from you but am without paypal.

Thanks

Hey Ryuji, sweet job on the kit. What colors did you use, and what types of paint? I'm putting the kit together and was curious on to colors used and paint type. Thanks. Beautiful work BTW, very nice.

Oopsie!

Well, yours looked good too, do you know who did the Minmay in the pic I posted?

Hey Ryuji, did you make this? (then stopped, and used it for some other figure?)

Cause that is so hot! I would have bought one for sure, make it again!

No. This is the Minmay I started (and stopped )

It's time to think about my next project

(I tried to add non anime characters this time)

Making eyes.

After make about 15 copies, something strange started to happen: the resin started to "react" with silicon rubber and started to atack and stick...

This was a good quality silicon and had to be strong - with polyester resin I can make more than 50 copies without problem but with Axon Fast Cast F-18 the mold is destroyed and useless after only 15... but unfortunatelly this is the only urethane resin brand available here...

I had to remake all molds

Now I'm testing a stronger silicon and reserching a way to protect from "resin atack"...

... and my failed parts "collection" is growing...

changed parts.

After "collect" a lot of failed parts I decided to make some changes:

I will separate the hand from right arm and the top part of helmet and remake the mold (this will make the kit more easy to build and paint) .

This will take more 2 days...

Sorry for delay.

Did you go long leg or short leg on the final sculpt?
