Wasted Fett
Literally Asian
Yeah but if your glove mold is stuck, you sacrifice the mold and keep the integrity of the original piece, no matter what piece you're working on. Who would use a prybar? Ridiculous.
There's a fantastic thread over at the rpf about this matter. The second page onwards with a conversation between, mostly, Art and Ryan is fascinating. It's called 'My new boba fett helmet casting'. It's a brilliant thread.I come back and reread this every month or so. Amazing that we know so much about this!

Hey Art, is there any chance there is an archive of the thread that discusses the finding of the Ultracal plug? The link for it goes to a dead page. I would love to read that thread.
I don't own the PP2 buck. It was loaned to me for all of 2016 with a bit of overlap from late 2015 and into early 2017. After that it was returned to its current owner. Additionally, the other pages of the linked site contains images of some of the unaltered casts that were made in 2015 from a new mould - minus the skirt. Those pictures are helpful because the casts are one uniform colour and this makes it easier to see the properties of the buck, both good and bad.Here's the thread, but most of the images are missing ==> **TDH Exclusive** Real Boba Fett helmet casting. Andy / intwenothor owns this and posted lots of images on his site ==>The Boba Fett Pre Production 2 Buck |.
Yeh woodman owns that now I think?I don't own the PP2 buck. It was loaned to me for all of 2016 with a bit of overlap from late 2015 and into early 2017.

Those pages also show the alterations that I made to a copy of the buck to make it into a useable cast for painting. Those changes will likely be similar to the things that Lee Malone did to create his 'Malone Fett' helmets. The casts, and therefore the buck, share some of the issues that the GM had [although not all] but generally of a less egregious nature.
No. Not Woodman. The buck is owned in the UK.Yeh woodman owns that now I think?
Ahhhh thanks!No. Not Woodman. The buck is owned in the UK.
If I understand it correctly, Woodman owns, or owned, some sort of mould of the thing, possibly from the original Malone Fett run, and is the person producing the light grey unaltered casts with the additional dome distortion.
