Ok, I thought I'd post this for everyone to see. This was back in the day before I discovered Pollyscale. What I did was I took an LED and set inside the mold and casted the head in clear. I then masked off the area of the face plate and the vents in the sides of the fave with EZ Mask. After that I used Rit Dye to blacken the head. It didn't take too well but it was just a prototype run. The main goal behind this project is to cast the torso in clear with a sculpted chest plate. I want to run a set of wires along the inside of the torso out the back and then add a connector plate. I want to set the backpack up to hold the batteries along with a connector plate also. That way when the backpack is inserted into the back it will complete the circuit and the LED will come on. I'd like to add an LED into the chest but I'm not sure if they make them that small.
Now I know that everyone has seen this before but I thought I'd go ahead and post it anyway. I've upgraded the material that I use in this vehicle and it's right on par with the manufacturer's material now.
I've casted this in black but the clear is something that I'm very proud of. I'm able to get the parts 100% bubble free now and that is a tough chore!
