amrogers3 Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Matt Gubser did a rune priest conversion a long time ago and put very small runes on the armor (pic attached). I have tried and tried to practice with this and can't recreate it. It is definitely not as easy as I thought it would be. I have tried rolling out thin strips of GS and waiting until it hardens a little, tried sculpting runes both on and off mini, nothing works. It looks like he sculpted right onto the mini. I am trying to put very small runes on a runestaff for a Rune Priest conversion. I found the rune tutorial on B&C but those runes are much larger and the same technique doesn't work on the smaller runes. If anyone could provide some guidance, I would appreciate it. http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r213/amrogers3/IMG_1628.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/228866-need-help-putting-small-runes-on-armor/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Mage Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 If it were me, Id scratch them into some clay, let it air dry, and then press the green stuff into it until its a lil hard, then pull it off on a sheet of paper and transfer it over. *shrugs* Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/228866-need-help-putting-small-runes-on-armor/#findComment-2743940 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadey Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 I think Grey Mage has it right there. The only thing I would add is you may have to experiment with different curing times before moving on to the next step.

Brother Nihm Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 http://fromthewarp.blogspot.com/2010/10/sc...r-pad-icon.html The same principle applies. Sculpt them, make a press mold, press lubricated/greased up GS into the dry mold, let dry. release the new icon, clean it of flash and very carefully glue it on. Is what I would do.

T14 Posted May 3, 2011 Share Posted May 3, 2011 2mm Brass Etched Runes may serve as a viable alternative. :D -T14 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/228866-need-help-putting-small-runes-on-armor/#findComment-2746064 Share on other sites More sharing options...
