    I need a shrink.....

    I need to find someone to shrink a resin head and cast it for me, After I cast the head for a custom I am making I realized he is more a 9'' or 10". I would really like to get it down to an 8" scale, as well as the custom accessories. This way I can get some repro bodies and make a few availible for the folks here. oh and of course there is payment involved.

      What head is it? I have been shrinking heads a lot here lately using acetone. I have shrank a bunch of the 9in playmates Trek figures to 8in scale. I don't cast em I just glue a plug on and use them, they still have the mego-like squishy head. Then I take 90's gi joe heads and shrink them to 9 inch to use on the playmates bodies. I don't know how to cast but you should try the Acetone just don't leave them in too long. I soak them for 15 minutes at a time some only take a few times some take several like the gijoe. I only soak them maybe 3 times in a day then let them sit and they will shrink. Let us know how it turned out.
