That's how I did my wayfinders from KH: BBS. Please read following notices:1. This is not the best and definitely not the easiest way to do these accessories.
2. Please obey all the safety measures.
3. Feel free to ask any questions.

Если что-то непонятно по ходу изготовления - спрашивайте ^_^
Собираетесь ББСку косплеить?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Неее) Просто технология интересует) Иногда нужно что-то для косплея аналогичное стругать)
Ну и плюс я фанатка ББС-ки, хочу себе такой брелочек сделать)

Жаль) Прозрачные элементы в коспллее - самая жэ, вечная проблема)
Больше Вэйфайндеров хороших и разных ^_^v

Не знаю уместно ли это говорить, но в моих планах невиданно появилась Аква о_О Спасибо вам, за то что направили на этот путь Х) Допрошла КХ и зафанатела по ней *_*

Ах да, забыла). Умоляю, сделайте нормальный корсет, а то все забугорные косплееры в каком-то жутком мятом атласном ужасе, вместо кожаного на косточках Т_Т

На дайрях меня нет) Ну, я буду делать это из кож.зама, который уже проверен на шинровском ремне)
Ну я обычно одеваю бельевой корсет и в талии у меня ничего не мнётся, поэтому скорее всего сверху будет максимум 4 косточки пластмассовые: спереди (около шнуровки) и в швы по бокам вошью)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
А для кого был шинровский ремень, если не секрет? :3
А ну тогда всё в порядке). Просто думаю, не надо пояснять примерами что творят косплееры с этим несчастным корсетом xD

Для Зака (Crisis Core FFVII)

Удачи! *Эх, сама бы скосплеила — фугура не позволяет ТТ*
А вас на дайри случайно нет? Жажду палить русских кх-шников.

You may also use wax or paraffin, but that's more difficult. And why not plasticine?

I can't find it in any craft store

I'm trying to make them now, getting the mold part is hard
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I bought the materials for these today, is the acryllic paint glass paint, or is that something else?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No, the glass paint is a special transparent paint which is used for the stained-glass imitation.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
oh, im glad i found this....
i was going to make them out of Sculpey clay, so the translucent parts would've been opaque, but now i'll try this. Im making these as a friend's birthday present,

ok, I have a few questions...
1-After I put the epoxy on the molds, it created bubbles, but wend I got the needle they wouldn't pop x( So i sterd the mix and it kinda came out alright. Any suggestions?
2-I kinda forgot to put the oil >.>; Is it that bad? : X
3- How much time does the epoxy take to dry, in general? Is there anything I can do to speed the prossesse? Should I bake it? Microwave it x) or dry it with a hair drier?
4- the cord, just I put it before or after the clay dries?
Обязано 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
*i guess it's not of current importance now, but anyway)*
1. I didn't pop them, I like..hmm..forced them out.
The dictionary doesn't know the word "sterd", unfortunately, so i can't say anything about that)
2. It sure is 
3. It depends on it's sort. There should be an instruction. The process can be hasten by heating with a hairdryer, but NO microwave.
4. It's up to you. I've added mine after baking the clay ^_~
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
actualy it helps
1- I think I spelled it wrong : X, I meant like, wend you add sugar to milk and then you put a spoon and move it in circles xD
2- doh! I'll have to re-start so it's ok
3- Yep, no microwave....not a preaty sight xD
4- Thanks
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That's strange... It usually takes 4-5 hours for it to harden. Did you put the right amount of the hardening agent?
1. Oh, "to stir" xD. Yes, it is one of the ways to get rid of the bubbles.
2. That's ok. I've made four or five attempts before the result).
3. The microwave has a strange effect on some materials. I guess, it's better not to experiment)
4. ^_~

The epoxy comes in some sort of twin tube with each material on separeted tubes, wend you put it, they both come out at the same time.
1/2- thanks
3- Yeah, I tried

Mine always comes in two separate bottles, that's why I've asked ^_^
>Trash can with it
Amen)

If we don't drill them, how do you get the chords through? I want to make some, but am not quite sure how to make that work.

Kay I'm going to be making some next week, and I think most of the questions I have except one have been answered through other people's comments. If I can't find plasticine, would polymer clay work for the molds?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I guess it would.
That's strange... Several people has told me they couldn't find plasticine. I mean, in Russia it is sold just everywhere o.o Maybe I've translated it wrong?)
Good luck anyway)

I guess it's just not that popular in the US, but that's alright cause today I was able to find a molding clay sort of thing, as well as some color dye to mix in with the epoxy (I looked everywhere for glass paint and found none) I'm excited!

Yes: the epoxy melts at 150-210°C. I was baking at 130-140°C and everything was fine. Abut the time... All the instructions and even the clay's label says that it should be baked for half an hour. I'm always waiting for 10-15 minutes only and it's alright. Probably it's better to follow the instruction though ^_~
Thank you and good luck! I'm glad if I could help.

when baking the frames - do you bake the "petal" shapes along with it? and how long do you bake them for?
thanks for making this - i've been looking for a way to make them for aaaages
