Looking pretty sweet, how big are they? And are you planning to cast a few?

The photo quality isn't great, but the model itself looks very smooth!

fits in your palm easy enough... and yea. theyre soaking in some mold star 15 as we speak...
Sorry, I took the pictures with my webcam

Hah groovy!, I'm curious though, do you bake the clay to harden it befoe you mold or vac form?

 

[Unity]

Are you going to put the gliph in? Very smooth work!

I use plastilina, never dry, oil based clay. After I carve out all the details I want, I just mold it with smooth-on silicone. In this case, I used mold star 15.
As for the glyph, I dont like it there because if you look at reference pictures, its really a projected light and not actually carved into the grenade.

already have 3 grenades cast out. pics will come tomorrow.
Going to do a run of this so watch the classifieds for my thread.
