Hiho everybody,

I just finished a detailed tutorial for making pressure molds on my blog. The idea was to have a steady supply for wall segments for my dungeon crawl project, but also to make some cobblestone bases etc. I understand a lot of people use greenstuff for this, but given greenstuff is quite expensive I thought it might be worth a try to use Fimo Soft or Sculpey Original.

Here is the result of my casting adventure:


The tutorial can be found following this link:

Woul be cool to hear of your experiences with this technique and get some constructive criticism regarding the tut.
