Mixed Bag Day

It was yesterday. I opened the molds for the prosthetics. They came out very well. Cleaned them and they are ready to run next week.

Next I ran two orders I have for the Crater Lake Monster. One is a kit and the other is a pre-fab fully built and signed version.

Last I worked on the V-2 masters for our new V-2 kit. I used chart tap to make scale details, panel lines, and hatches. I then placed a lot of primer over the tape, nearly a half can if not more. This smooths out the surface and captures the tape. Once lightly sanded, the tape is removed. The surface is sanded again lightly which gives you crisp details without having to hand scribe. I also filled and primed the one tail fin. A mold will be made off the fin once detailed. 4 will be made from that mold and a new gang mold of all four I cast for a production mold.

It was a great day of fun and production.
