Muscular dude: So... You're wondering how i got so muscular? Well, every time Jazza says "i reckon" or a dad joke, i do one push up.

Fantastic work Jazza. Using rust solution to give it a more metallic finish was pretty genius. An alternative method that you could try would be to cover the mold in metallic powder using a brush to get into the crevices before pouring your resin into the mold. That way a layer of metalic powder should be on the surface of the finished product.

The nose pinch! Perfect detail! Love the rust looks. Reminds me of Fallout. Make a full armor suit with it!

[iisnuffles]

the rusting is so cool! makes such a huge diffrence

[Error_sans_]

Honestly I loved the pieces before they got rusted. I feel like some of the shinyness and the brightness went away with the rust. Amazing work!

Often whenever someone makes a real metal cast you can find many different imperfections like tiny air bubbles, larger voids where the metal didn't flow properly, and the granular texture of the sand mold. I think that if you were to artificially introduce these imperfections, while it would make them look less pristine, it would also make them look more like the real thing.

I love the Iron Man at the end. The rust makes it look like it’s been long forgotten in some cave or ruins, but the light shows there’s still life, just waiting to be woken up...

9:04 Eddie would look ace as a door knocker

[Miss_Myth]

LOVE how the last piece turned out!!! I'm glad you were more restrained on the rust effect in particular, because for me personally, the heavy rust effect made it look less like real metal to me. Maybe it looks different in person, but regardless, the final piece was absolutely extraordinary. Awesome stuff Jazza!

Oooh I wonder if this would work with copper powder! I love the colours of copper patina

[progoproductions]

I’ve found when using similar products if you dust the mould with the powder first you can buff to an even shinier surface

[ChantelleArts]

I always find the silicon moulds so impressive, it's a such a cool way to create your own mould 🥰

Eddie (also known as Eddie the Head) is the mascot for the English heavy metal band Iron Maiden. He is a perennial fixture of the group's artwork, appearing in all of their album covers (as well as most of their singles) and in their merchandise... . The first version of Eddie was a mask made by an art student who was friends with Dave "Lights" Beazley, [6][7] then in charge of lighting, pyrotechnics and other effects for Iron Maiden's live show.[8] According to Beazley, the original mask was a papier-mâché mould of his own face, which was then used in the band's backdrop, consisting of lights and the band's logo.[7] At the end of their live set, during the "Iron Maiden" song, a fish tank pump was used to squirt fake blood out of the mask's mouth, which typically covered their then-drummer Doug Sampson.[9] After this initial incarnation, Beazley constructed a larger mask out of fibreglass, equipped with flashing eyes and the ability to release red smoke from its mouth.[7]

The band's bassist and founding member Steve Harris states that the name "Eddie" comes from the original mask being referred to as "The Head", which sounded like "Ead" in the band members' London accent.[10] According to guitarist Dave Murray the name was also inspired by an old joke.

Would love to see more of that medium with some more variations on postprocessing (like sanding, grinding, polishing, etc.) Great content as always!

[TorQueMoD]

You've got a Mulder that'll let you make a Skully :P I love it! You should try polishing one of the pieces with one of those buffing wheels they have in metalwork shops. I think it would look way better than rusting them.

[KalebPeters]

Woah this is such a cool medium! I had never heard of it before! And I bet it's even more convincing in-person when you pick the piece up haha

The Iron Man at the end was so well pulled off, fascinating to watch all the steps and materials involved to create that final product, and it looks sick!

[onewitxhcoven]

This might be something cool to revisit on Tabletop Time for any large metal sculptures for terrain, or a custom large figure/ship etc that’s derelict and abandoned!!

[pobbrett]

Cold casting is such fun If you’re using fine metal powders it’s worth dusting the mould too before pouring and 00 wire wool works better than the thicker steel wool, Ironman with brass powder should be next in that mould

[marikamoreau]

That's so cool! I've seen the paint and the rust agent before but never in resin. What a cool idea. Now I want to cast everything
