(...) thanks! (...) Yeah, point taken. I don't much like the Gungans either, but I have a ton of em and wanted to use them for something, and this made sense. As for the FK shields, I really like em. When I was little I had lion (crusader) shields, (...) (24 years ago, 21-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle.org, lugnet.castle)

(...) Thanks Wilson. I'm such a perfectionist, I had to have it all just right. (Ask Shiri, we had to do most shots 3 or 4 times before I got one I liked :-) I think all the added little "thingies" add that dimension that one needs. (...) We had the (...)

(...) Thanks! (...) Yeah, I plan on doing a Structures page that will go into more detail on the "important" buildings. (...) Thanks again. I wanted to do something with them, and this was the most obvious choice. -Chris (...) (24 years ago, 21-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle.org, lugnet.castle)

(...) As far as mounting the sculpey on a stick, it follows that if you get a wood dowel the same diameter as a minifig's head (and possible carving a stud on the end?), you would be saving yourself some work down the road. Kevin (24 years ago, 20-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle)

More great work, Kyle! I like the fifth one the best of this lot, with a first four being toss-ups. I still am very fond of the flat top helms, however. As far as rtv molding goes, if Bianca is willing, go for it! With our upcoming sticker project, (...) (24 years ago, 20-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) otherwise I wish TLC actually made these. I have been messing with sculpey in other areas, but maybe it's time to bring into my lego stuff. -- Richard (24 years ago, 20-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle)

Funny you should mention this! I just got another batch of RTV-rubber yesterday to finish up an action figure project I've been working on. I would be happy to give it a try if no one else is game, but I would suggest the second or third most (...) (24 years ago, 20-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle)

I found the post about the first batch of custom helms, and discovered that you use Sculpey... Should have searched a bit more first. It's pretty easy to cast things in resin. All you need is a good master (it looks like you have several...) You can (...) (24 years ago, 20-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle)
