As of now, I have ordered a studio creations tusken mold, and am looking for accessories (greeblies, spitters, spikes, leather, duck cloth). I want resin, I can't afford the aluminum ones from Mr. Godzilla.

Oh and dog screen. And what else do I need? What brands of bondo? What is styrene? I know I'll need a glue gun. I have an xacto kit, and a cheap knock off dremel

Hey man, good luck, and have fun. Yeah, studio Creations should have all your other components too. Look in a fabric shop for bull denim. Just keep posting your progress and questions, one of us should be able to help . See you around! :sandtrooperw:

Welcome Corey!!

Bull denim for the wrappings

Since Jason B set you on the path for the resin greebles you should be good.

taupe Rit dye for the wrappings.

leather is a tooling style. look for about 7/8 oz weight.

I too am wanting to enter with a TR. leather is very easy to cut. Tandy leather is in south Charlotte they have the leather for a good price. I am having a guy tools my metal parts for me. I'm going to cast my own mask. It's going to be hard but fun.
