Just a short informational video showing me cast some metal miniatures. Plastic miniatures are nice but metal, in my opinion, are the best. I am experimenting with making metal minis inexpensivey and quickly. I show you some of the process.

This tutorial shows you the fast and easy way to create a rubber mold and cast a miniature in it. I show you how I make the mold then how I cast the miniature treasure chests. this is a one part mold using rubber as the mold and plastic as the molded part.
I also have a complete tutorial with pictures, resources, more information and where to buy the materials on my website here:

I show you the complete process for casting duplicates of a miniature figure. How to make the rubber mold in two parts and how to cast the miniature duplicate. A two part mold is the kind of rubber mold you make for complex minis like figures, warriors, wizards, dwarves etc. This is part 2 of 2 videos.
