I post a story on pooring silicon molds on the scratchbuilding forum. These techniques can come in quite handy to copy / modify your diorama items too.

I used it to cast both resin and plaster items, like gateposts, fountains, cobblestones, paved sidewalks, floortiles, wall sections, ornaments, etc...

Have fun with it !

Jan, how about making an article... Just some copy/paste procedure to the text you already prepared.. it could be easier to read (and print it out) it that way. I'm shure Jim wouldn't mind.

Just a thought,

Yes a good idea Maki! . Good for the real newbies :-)

That would be awsome! Great idea, kinda like the Digital Diamonds Articles.

I have a great book on making and casting your own buildings by Roy Porter called "Model Buildings Masterclass" published by Windrow and Greene

If I could only get silicone from some place in this corner of world. I have searched from everywhere and no result
The closest thing I found was somekind of rubber like stuff (don't remember the name). Your are supposed to melt it and then use it in similar way. The only damned problem was that these guys charged for exactly same stuff and amount more than 5 times more compare to UK
