Stealthy Stealth Suits

Wow that is really slick. I wonder how a lichter would look like that...

That's pretty cool! Good idea using clear resin. I think, if you wanted a little definition to it, that a light wash of some color would look good. Maybe a wash of blue or something.....

if you add a hint of ink to that lichter. i would say amazing.

i might try that tomorrow. what kind of blue? ice blue ?

Is there a good place to learn how to make these? You talked me into it!

no there is not. i had to learn everything my self. i spent about 4 months trying to make a working mold. if you want i can tell you what i used.

Man is that impressive. Very cool man.

Props to you man, makes me wonder why gw doesn't do any models like this.

I would be very interested to learn what you did. Id love to make my friend a couple of Lictors for his nid army.

just as a note, you may have broken some copyright laws :/

i had this idea myself but i dropped the idea after trying to figure out how to get a working mold

That is cool as all hell.

dude that is epicly awesome. wow factor 10

It is cool, and quite a few other people have had the same idea over the last few years. I like this model and even I've done a few models like this.

There have been a couple of clear lictors made, also, but due to their nature, they pretty much HAVE to be made in parts, and then if you use the wrong adhesive to join them together, you lose a lot of the effect.

Be aware that yes, what you have done is illegal in many countries and that in depth discussion of how you did this here is probably also frowned upon.

Resin casting isn't difficult (once you know the basics), but the learning curve is pretty steep. There are tutorials on the Hirstarts site that show you how to make the molds and do casts, though.

it's really awesome.

where i live, its legal as long as i dont sell them.

Where is that exactly? I'm curious.

That's a very slick cast by the way, one of the best clear ones I've seen.

the law in my state is, as long as its for personal use only and i may not profit from it.
and thanks.

You're clear in any state as long as you dont produce them in a fashion to make money off them. If you wanted a whole army of translucent stealth suits, GW can't stop you from making it for yourself. They can only tell you that you can't use them at store/events. Now when you sell a few to that 12 year old with the dipndots all over his face, then you broke some IP laws.

man that is awsome i like very much, i must learn the method of doing this
