just a teaser pic

I have tried to cast two barrels already and I have concluded that I will have to make a new mold for it. I will also try to make a second mold of each part to help speed things up a bit.


THAT right there, is FRIKIN' SA-WEET!!!!

Wow, those look sweet! Great job on them, and a great thing you're doing for the Fett community!

I didn't manage to get on either list, but I was wondering if you had any "reject" castings of either the grip or stock, like something not good enough for the kit, but something you'd sell separately?

Another teaser pic:
I sanded the parts just enough to get them to fit together. I just super glued them together to test fit them. Unfortunately I broke the bracket tip in the process, Oops. I don't have the barrel yet, as I am going to be redoing that mold. The current weight of so far minus the barrel is about 1.5 lbs.

Quick update:
I am casting parts each day. I just ordered more RTV, so I hope to make a few more molds to be able to cast several parts a day to help seed things up a bit. I am working on all the smaller parts first and will get to the larger parts next.

Now for the question on everyone's mind...payment! I know I keep saying soon, but I cannot rationalize taking payment before I have something to ship. That said, instead of having the payment just sit in my paypal until this kits are done anyways, I'll start taking payment as soon as I have completed kits ready to go. That way it should be at your door within a week or so of payment. I'd just feel more comfortable that way.

wow... $45. what a fantastic deal. this is as much a donation to the community as it is a prop run. that can't be much more than the cost of resin!

Once these blasters start getting into peoples hands, someone needs to start another thread with where to get any of the remaining greebles or whatever is needed to finish these off.

My son is so much going to love this blaster kit, heck, it might turn me on to getting one for myself in a future run.

I know that Sidewinder is someone to go to for your greeblie needs.

That is soooo cool!! If we wanted, I bet it would be possible to even make the hinge work on the casts! I can't wait! :D

I make some ESB Greeblies based on WOF's templates. But... I'm nowhere near ready to take a large number of orders yet. I need to redo the square stock greeblie based on the photo that showed up a while back. Now I just have to find them again

If anyone can put up a list of what greebles/parts are needed to finish this off, I'd appreciate it. I'm a Jango guy not a Boba, lol.

I'd possibly help contribute to the 'Budget Fett" theme started by Seven here by doing some cost effective castings for some of the remaining parts. Any clone guys here know I'm good for it. I'd prefer authentic parts to cast off since we are getting a blaster casting off the real deal here.

Woo hoo! More RTV just showed up!

going to get some more molds ready now so I can cast a couple kits a day!

I already have the first 30 grips and barrel releases done, and several of the other parts ready, now I can get the barrels going.

Oh, and these wont ship in time for Halloween, sorry.
