Default RE: Gonna make my own crackerbox racers busts question..

Well here is where I am at, Unfortunately I lost alot of the nice detail on the front of my driver, in a mistake, and the result was I had to leave a layer of plastic on the mold to get a good release, thereby losing more detail. I am still having trouble making pieces that will line up really well when you glue them together, such as the front to back in this situation. I still need to do alot of filler and shaping work, but I am a decent painter and these will turn out pretty good when I am done.

I am still a little dissapointed though as the first pull which ruined the plug looked great, it had the seams on the life jacket and his suit, it really looked good unpainted, ah well ,,live and learn !
