Thanks for the kind words RBF,
The clay sculpt was covered with plastic wrap then a few layers of fiberglass over that . To get the mask as smooth as possible I used a two part Epoxy to cover the entire sculpt and sanded for quite awhile using different grades of sandpaper .
Then it was just a matter of building up mass and knocking it down to where it needed to be.
If I can be of any more help let me know.

The resin supplier that I did business with has let me down Two times now by sending contaminated product so it's taking a little longer to get to the first run , I'm looking to start the run the middle of next week .
I do have on hand a couple of not the best quality masks cast,
Not the best meaning that at the begining of the cureing process the resin lightly expanded ( or foamed due to moisture ) It's not the worst thats ever happened it just not where I want my kits to be , PM me if your interested in one of those masks . I'll post pics soon .
As far as kits go let me ask you guys this , There are small detail bits like screws of different sizes and tubing that can be found at any Ace Hardwhare store , Would you rather they be part of the kit or would a list of parts be acceptable?
Let me know
Thanks

hey jarvis - in terms of availbility; I wont mind either or. I seem to be at the hardware store every other week as is. Also, you know how it goes, sometimes people dont liek the look of the stuff in the kit and get their own stuff anyways (eg FX stormtrooper helmet detail bits)
in terms of my pure laziness - would prefer it in the kit
soz abt trouble with suppliers. thought u were pretty braev casting stuff in winter as well mate!
