Masking Boba's slave 1

Post by Qrest Fourstar »

Ok, soon Im going to have to mask off my slave 1. It apears that I really need to BE PATIENT and use a toothpick. Now, what's the best mask? I've used the Bob dively stuff and recently used the Mr Hobby mask(but had the WORST time getting it removed). Someone used some purple stuff a while back-who's was that?

Also, in the SSM store there was a liquid mask I had never seen before. Does anyone have a opinion of it?

Personally I have used plain ordanary liquid latex, worked really nice, came off real easy with out touching under tones.
That day, Vader was amazed to discover that when
fett was saying "As you wish", what he meant was, "I love you."
And even more amazing was the day he realized he truly loved him back.

Use salt. Works like a charm, much easier than liquid masking.
I speak of the pompatous of plastic.
