I need some purity seals but I don’t have bits like this one. Here is a simple way to make your own purity seals.
Only what you need is greenstuff, scissors, plasticard, and pencil or pen. Thanks to Nazroth for idea how to made it simple ;)
Cut some rectangles from plasticard and make some greenstuff balls.
Place greenstuff in right position.
Press ball with pencil.
Ok, it’s almost done ;)
Make as many as you need and wait until greenstuff will harden.
Now paint it and place on model. That’s all ;)
Hope that this little tutorial will help. Sometimes simple ways are hardest to find.
I think remy tramblay did it with aluminium instead of platicard, its a bit more manageable. I woold also suggest making a mould of a real purity seal, so you get a little more detail. I tried it, and it worked a charm.
Yes, that’s a good idea to use aluminium, but this solution have one disadvantage – you have very sharp edges and it sometimes hurt a bit ;) I made this seals for land raider and it has flat vertical so it fit very well. For more dynamic, windy seals better is aluminium or copper plate. I don’t have any seals around me so I can’t make mold, but this idea is also very good. I think that this tutorial will fit expectations of mold:
Greenstuff mold
Good job and good idea :P Thanks for the great tutorial :).
