Re: CIVIL WAR/WESTERN HEADSCULPT by HANOUMAN & BERGHOLTZ - PAYMENT DUE
Ok, I've spoken with Lonnie. He's told me that he can make the opaque headsculpts, but there are a few drawbacks. One, the resin is a bit more expensive and two, the resin itself is harder on the mold.
The extra expense of the castings is not that much, but my main concern is the wear the resin will have on the mold. According to him, I can get about 30 good heads using regular resin. When using the opaque resin, that's cut down to about 20 heads. That means that the last castings will start getting a bit rough and a new mold will need to be made.
I think to keep costs down and quality up, I'm going to stay with the standard white resin.
Thank you.
