About materials and techniques:

1. First, I made a form of styren sheet:

2. Next, I bought a silicone and clear resin.

3. On base of plastic form (with a little help of Lego) I made silicone mold.

4. The next step was to prepare the scaffold with model of Soryu:

5. To clear resin I added two drops of blue transparen acrylic paint.
After two days I could remove the resin block with Soryu inside.
