First Character

Collected the first character today and took it out of the mould. Really pleased with how it looks. Had to ask Leon in metal works if I could put it in the oven for half an hour, which I will need to do for all of them. This is so that it will go completely hard and set properly. 


After that, there was still a chunk of resin in the inside of the tail bit and the resin where the sproos were which I needed to saw out. Its a really difficult spot to try and cut out. Broke two saws in the process (oooops) But managed to get it out. I will have to do this for all of them as they will all have them. 


Also, today I made the next resin mixture. I made up more this time as I felt like before there was only just enough and could maybe of done with a little bit more.
