    Oxygen inhibits resin polymerisation (curing) meaning the outer surface won’t cure in air. Once you’ve done your initial cure, put a glass container full of water in the curing station and cure it in the water. This limits the oxygen on the outer surface so you won’t need to wash it in alcohol afterwards. It cures faster in water too.

    Why not do the following: 1. Make a 3D scan of your head using a Revo 3D scanner. 2. 3D print that model in PLA and now you have a life cast of your head. 3. Make. Make a clay sculpt of whatever mask form you want on your life cast and then from there use the classic silicon mask technique you describe to make a rigid 2 part mold and pour a silicon mask from that. Basically you are using 3D printing to easily make a life cast that would otherwise be a very involved process to do.

    Great video, thanks so much for making this. One improvement I'd made here is to measure the height of your head from the top of your skull (plus any hair) to the TIP of your chin (don't let your chin sit in the crook of the caliper) but take this measurement with your MOUTH OPEN. Some helmets will enclose your chin and you will want room to move your jaw to talk or eat (or even just to chew gum), and for other bucket-style helmets, like mandalorian helmets, you will not want your jaw showing while you talk/chew, so when in doubt, add extra room (maybe as much as 3-4 centimeters) on that height measurement.

    To summarize your current process: Wash all parts with dish soap and dry 3 coats black duplicolor sandable primer. Wait 5 mins between coats 1000 grit wet sand 2 k clear 1 light coat, wait 5 mins 1 light coat, wait 5 mins Medium coat, wait 24 hours Alclad 3 coats but maintain the opacity Wait a few hours to dry 2 k clear top coat Is this correct? Thanks for all of the tips.

  • @pandapropsncostumes
    @pandapropsncostumes5 ай бұрын

    This is an almost 4 year old video and techniques have changed. My budget fast version would be 3 coats of Duplicolor black primer, fine scotch Brite pad, Duplicolor gloss clear acrylic lacquer. Alclad, leave it uncoated. Applied properly it's just fine for durability. Better version: Duplicolor black, fine scotch bright, 2k gloss, Alumaluster, Dralumen, Alclad or Spaztix, 2k clear. Wet sand 600 works fine, no need for 1000 grit.

    Thanks bro for the info. Great work. I'm doing a Bandai mandalorian kit with soft goods. I need to buy a compressor for my airbrush. But I was told by a representative from a local hobby shop that Alclad will destroy any cheap airbrush which I got mine for $40. So I'm not sure which way I'm going to paint it.

  • @pandapropsncostumes
    @pandapropsncostumes8 ай бұрын

    It depends on the type of airbrush that you have the reason why They probably mentioned that there might be damage is because Alclad paints are lacquer based. So you have to use a lacquer to clean the airbrush. Depending on the type of airbrush, whether it's a single action or double action or siphon feed, some of the fittings or o-rings inside might be made out of a cheap material and lacquer can soften or dissolve those materials. On higher quality airbrushes those parts are just made to a higher standard and can withstand stronger solvents like lacquer thinner. I generally don't paint costume parts with a dual action airbrush. It's kind of pointless because you don't need that sort of fidelity or control for medium to large pieces. For a lot of my props, I've actually used a single action Paasche H airbrush probably for over 20 years and I've put everything through it including lacquers water based enamels you name it and it's still going strong. I've never replaced a single part in it. You might want to look into that one. They're not very expensive and they are tanks
