Messing around with cc again

Thanks goes out to Dark-Side and his trials with cold cast on his knee project. He IS my inspiration!:D(y)

man those look simply amazing!:cheers ive been dying for you to do another guant run! so whenever that happens...................
 
Thanks guys. Right now I'm just messing around trying to see if I can perfect the CC process by adjusting the resin/aluminum/hardener ratio to meet my curing desires, seeing how many layers of CC are ideal for verticle surfaces before laying fiberglass cloth and resin, realizing problem areas, and trying to figure out causes of any imperfections on the surface. I've been promising Dark-Side a pair forever, so I'll make him a pair initially and then myself, and afterwards probably make only a few pair available for others who are highly interested. Dark-Side has really nailed the whole CC process, so I'm just hoping to get to his level of understanding.(y)

Here's one more inside pic.:)

Hey Cruzer, didn't you do a set for Jango 5204 which were larger sized? I remember someone doing a large size Jango gauntlet, and I could use a larger set myself...mine are excruciatingly difficult to try to fit my arms in :p
 
Cruzer, Yor are the big brother that i never had!!!!
(clearly with long hair!!!:lol:lol::lol:lol::lol:)

Anyway,the result is perfect! I can't wait to have them!!!(y):love

I just got a regular set. Just so happens they had a little more space at the wrist than my previous pair (different maker).
 
To make all of the attachments that go on the shells in CC, would require me to remake all of those molds in order to minimize the appearance of seam lines. As my molds stand right now, it would be a waste of material to pour CC resin into them. So hopefully down the road I'll be able to get to those molds. (y)
 
I'll try to produce as many sets as I can. But BobaFettSlave_1 caught on when I said "...highly interested". With the costs of having to make all new molds specifically for cc production, the slightly higher cost of cc materials, the extra care and time it takes to work with this stuff, and with me finding less and less time to work on props these days, I estimate a complete cc gauntlet kit would be in the $450 range.:eek: With that price range in mind, this project will probably be limited.:facepalm
