Do you mean to have the logo that small on the blog?

-If so, it would probably look better w/ just the flickering facial features in the O, and w/o the EOL face too small to make out without astronaut eyes.

No, its kind of a compromise at present since my keyboard is still broken and I had to go to the most basic themes to make the website work at all.  Havent spent the time to find one I particularly like.

edit  That works

So, BU, I'm trying to work out a piece of a bigger prop.

You work with silicone at all?

Yeah.  Candle molds.  It was your idea.

I don't know if scented wax would make a very good mold.

I'm more wondering what kind of silicone to get.  A plaster mold will likely work, but I want a hollow shell cast for reasons.  Considering attempting it with caulking but have had decidedly mixed results with that.


Unless theres a latex that is less flesh colored and more clear...

Hm...I might try the latex just for familiarity reasons.

In silicone, I'm only familiar with clear calk.

All the latex I've worked with comes out yellowish if it's much thickness to speak of, though I usually add a little color somewhere in there.

This is mostly going to be a vehicle to diffuse an underlying light to begin with.  Not sure I have a latex mold left, but might simply try to plug a light into it and see how it goes.

Actually I'm probably overthinking this...I have a pic somewhere...

When were laser finger beams a fad?

Yeah...[poop]. 

This is exactly what I want to do....



But that damn skull was a build your own kit they don't make any more, and I sure as hell don't want the seam where they cut the top off.  It was made from a funky plastic. 

I gotta see if propskull1 model does the same thing, but I don't think it will. 

A thin, 3d printed one would but I don't think they'll let me borrow the printer here for as much as I'm  wanting to make.
