Post subject:  Where can I buy Moulding kits/equipment?

Hey I've recently been sculpting and converting some pieces, and I thought it wouldn't be good to make a mould of some weapons I've made.

Where can I get some good casting equipment? Preferably resin, but pewter would be cool.

I don't know much about mould making, but I've seen a few people in the hobby have done it. If anyone knows of any guides too, I'd like to read them.

If you are going to just cast little pieces like shields/weapons/model parts, the easiest and cheapest way with decent results would be Greenstuff + Bluestuff.

Bluestuff is reusable so you dont lose anything if you do a mistake while moulding etc.

Check this video to get a feel about how it works.

Pewter/Resin/Dental Stone Casting is more advanced and honestly not worth the trouble, unless you are doing to make a lot of high quality pieces/whole miniatures or terrain.
