Many apologies for the progress on this thing taking so long. I know you all are waiting for pics.
I've finished all the molds for this thing, and I can say without a doubt that these are some of the best molds I've ever made. So clean and crisp, and the molds should hold up for at least one or two
hundred castings from each.
Unfortunately, I ran out of resin after I cast the first piece! GAH! But you can see the quality of the molds and the first casting.
Oh, and the new grip mold came out perfectly. Casting the grip will be a little tricky due to the widespread detail across the entire piece, but the top half of the test copy came out perfectly, so it's just a matter of getting the resin thin enough.
