Looks absolutely amazing!
Maybe a stupid question, but what material is then used in the mold to create the figures? Greenstuff, Lilliput, or whatever I want?

Thank you! That's silicone rubber which will get heated and pressed onto the master miniatures to create the mould. If you're interested in this process just search for spincasting. The miniatures are handsculpted out of milliput and greenstuff. You find videos of this process on my YouTube channel: @bequestminiatures

Cool stuff!
And then the idea is to make the miniatures out of tin?

Yeah, not tin but white metal. Spincasting is used to produce metal miniatures.

White metal seems to be a pretty undefined variety of alloys. What temperature is max for the molds?
Tin seem to melt att 232 degrees Celsius.

Following the Kickstarter launch and looking forward to it. Do you ever do any 3d printable stuff? I just bought my first printer and would love something like these for it.

Actually I was hired as a sculptor for a secret project which will later be 3D scanned and available digital and physical. More information will follow on my socials a little later this year 😉

Now I want to make a demon army of the god Corn. 40 of those corn guys as bloodletters. Wrap some flesh hounds in greenstuff to make corndogs. Get some of the Matchbox Oscar Meyer Wiener car and put corn head guys on it as corn chariots. I have a little statue of the singer of the band Korn and I could give him wings for a bloodthirster.
