This really is quite interesting.  Man I wish I could draw in that clean of a fashion!  I can visualize myself doing this, not having the molds match up and then burning part of my house down while casting....  Best to stick to purchasing and painting.   :o


I do get a kick however, of purchasing figures that at times have been etched 60, 70 or more years ago.  It is interesting to look at an old modeling book and say, 'I have that set too."  Usually followed by, "I guess I better paint it one of these days!"


Thank you for sharing this.
