Description
Not quite sure what set this is from but I'm pretty sure I cast this as a set, used different alloys of bronze to achieve different colors for different pieces.Related content

that would be sick, once I get better equipment I want to make more, definitely a labor of love but so worth it

I wonder... How much would it cost to buy a set made out of that? I'd definitely want to get Mata Nui made of bronze.

as far as raw materials go its not terribly expensive, between $50-$100, where the real cost comes is the sheer amount of time it takes to set it up, cast, assemble and finish, and not to mention what it does to the energy bill. I never got to calculate that because the studio I had at the time took care of the gas bill for the kiln and the casting torch. If I had my own equipment I would make a few to determine the cost but absolute low ball would be $400-$500, but that would change over time because materials and energy prices are always going up

O_o ....I think I'll just stick to ordering masks made of metal. Those alone would probably be, what, $15 to $40 dollars?
