| Mostly an attempt to expand the Gauls by giving them a few swordsmen as well as upgrading the cavalry moulds. Not 100% successful - some of the conversions didn't survive the mould making. |

| Haven't a clue what happened to the colours on this photo - the blues seem to have gottten lost somewhere. It's a royal blue tablecloth for instance! Meanwhile gives an idea of the 'new' figures - they'll really need another mould. |
I've been viewing your site for a few years, and I am amazed by your enthusiasm. You seem to go ahead and make new moulds as if it were a simple process. Years ago, I bought the materials to make moulds of miniatures I had been sculpting myself, but never got around to committing myself to the task out of fear that I would make a complete mess. Out of curiosity, what happened to some of your conversions? Did they break apart during the mould-making process?

Ps. I'm a collector of 25mm Garrison Miniatures.
I don't make the moulds myself, I get them made by Pete Brown, 'The Mouldmaker'. My attempts using silicone rubber are rarely successful. However, the vulcanised moulds made by Pete involve the use of high temperatures and pressure. In this case the glue I used didn't survive the process in some cases...
DeleteAlways interested in seeing more of your moulds, I find it fascinating.
ReplyDeleteIt's also a good record for me - wish I'd started doing it sooner.
