Blue Stuff and Milliput...How I Make Copies

- A short video explaining how I make replicas of parts using 'Blue Stuff' as a mold and 'Milliput' or 'Green Stuff' two part resin as a modelling medium. I also use my homemade sculptmold as a carrier for the 'wrap' mold. As I'm improving techniques with these products, I'll be making a more detailed guide soon.

Miliput is known here in Brazil under the fantasy name "Durepoxi". The same process, a soft mass and a hardener to be mixed.
Very interesting watching you cast your own parts, I enjoyed watching this. Thanks for sharing

Hi David, thanks very much for your words of support, I'm glad you like the video. All the best....Tom
I'm making dupes of Primaris Space Marine Upgrade shoulders and purity seals. Came to watch before I start to make sure I'm not missing a step. I purchased one real pack of the upgrades but i refuse to have to pay $15 just to add these tiny details to 5 marines, as for the entire army I'd need like 7 more packs. The models themselves were expensive enough so going to dupe the rest of the tiny details. Illegal or not, I dont really care as its dam near criminal they sell these little items and the full models at the prices they do. The sprue these upgrades come on is so small, one might be able to dupe the entire sprue at once with just 1/3 a box of milliput.
Hi there, sorry for the late reply. Thanks for the info, I hope it's all going well. all the best...Tom
Who would have believed Green stuff world made green stuff? 😉
Great video Tom! :D The material showcased seems really cool and very handy! :)
Hi, yes :D
Thanks very much for watching and leaving a comment. The Blue Stuff is a great product. With all the conversion work I'm doing at the moment it's become essential. Thanks again and all the best...Tom
I can never get anything I make with blue stuff to right ever
Hi Steve, I've had a few disasters, myself. I'll be doing another video soon with a few things I've learned to get better results. All the best...Tom
Good idea there for 1 off copying.
The Blue Stuff looks like Oyumaru which I used for copying texture detail in the past except mine is red.
Never seen Blue Stuff on sale here in Australia.
Any reason for using the Milliput over the Green Stuff or was it just already open?
Another nice video Tom
Hi Gerry, thanks for watching and commenting. Yes, the Blue Stuff is a great product as a re-usable mold. The company is Spanish so I buy mine online. With regards to the Milliput, I pay £2.85 per pack (standard yellow/grey), online so it's fairly cheap. I bought some fine white to try out...it's 3 times the price and I don't really like it too much so that's what I'm using for the test runs at the moment. The Green stuff is a little more expensive than the standard Milliput so I bought that piece to try out. I'll be using it in a future video to see how good it is. All the best mate.
Sorry for necroing your comment, but blue stuff is indeed rebranded blue Oyumaru.
@@c3pu333 All good by me. In Australia, Oyumaru can be bought quite cheaply from Daiso stores and online. Much cheaper than Blue Stuff.
@@c3pu333 Thanks for this info...I couldnt get blue stuff so I bought Oyumaru...Thanks
Hi Tom
Super video, that blue stuff is new to me and I'm very interested and have been thinking about all the detailing parts I could try to cast from milliput.
Cheers Paul
Hi Paul, thanks very much mate. Yes, it's a really good product that makes casting so much easier than using latex and plaster plus it's re-usable and quite cheap. It's also surprisingly good at picking up finer details. With the Milliput, the trick is to use the same volume as the piece you are modelling. I've been experimenting quite a lot with the Blue Stuff and I've got a few tips on it's uses so I'll be making another video about it soon. Thanks again and all the best....Tom
Where can I buy blue stuff
Have a look on Ebay or you can go to the Green Stuff World website.
Nice, thanks.
Thanks for watching Mike, much appreciated. All the best....Tom
Really confused
Hi Ray, yes I understand. I've had mixed feedback from this video. Originally, it was part of a series of videos that a number of people were following. I left it up as a 'Blue Stuff' video so anyone with an interest might get an idea of what it's like to use. The feedback is very positive but I understand that it's not the best produced video. All the best....Tom
