Review: Green Stuff World moulds.

Just a quick review.  Green Stuff World has brought out three new mould for details and having picked up two I figured I would share my experiences.

 

I purchased the control panels and the grids and fans.  Initially I tried casting in both dental plaster.  The plaster ran into the same problem that it always does with thin parts in small moulds.  The finished pieces are too thin and cannot support themselves so they break easily.  Secondly you usually have air bubbles form and it is much more noticeable with theses moulds as they are particularly small detailed parts. 

I then used Milliput and it worked a treat.  Easiest way to do it is to press the Milliput into the details allowing it to lump over the top of the mould.  Then scrape the top off with a metal scraper then smooth the bottom out.  I did not use green stuff as it is too elastic and cannot be scraped flat. 

The parts are reasonably detailed when comparing the Green Stuff cast monitors with Antocities Workshops resin monitors. They are smaller but overall they are a match. 

Here are some shots on a finished piece. 

All in all they are well worth the twelve and a half Euro price tag as you can make as many parts as you need at any time, they come with a keyboard and they are easy to work with.    

Hope you like.
