It is possible to make injection molds using a resin mix. I don't like using 3D printed molds directly, for reasons of weaknicity and brittleness. (This may change when that Siraya Sculpt resin comes in.)
***** BLACK FRAME glitch at around 16:19 due to render error. Was not able to re-render and re-upload in time for a Sunday release. *****
