[GZG] Converting 25mm Resin vehicles
My TOE for my 25mm SG platoon calls for one mortar vehicle. I'd
like to use a modified Wombat APC as that is the APC I am using for the
platoon.
My thought was to fill the void with a resin pour. Then I would
cut the troop compartment off and carve the cutoff surfaces.
Questions:
Is this the best way to go about it or should I make a mold of the
wombat and fill in the parts I don't want with modelling clay?
If I do the hack and grind method what is the best way to cut
resin? Will a hot-wire cutter cut it? handsaw? I'd
think a circular saw would be a bit much.
Can I carve it with a wood-burning tool or will I need to use a dremel?
Just FYI I will be ordering 4 more wombats to use as APCs in the near future. I'm not planning on molding any extras.
