lol
its possible! i've made two figures with model magic before, my advice would be to make a good armature, because air dry clay will sag and droop as it dries, and try to work in segments because some air dry clays don't blend into themselves very well (others do just fine, like some paper clays).
I have made a silicone mold of a Figma faceplate with no ill effects. The specific silicone I used is Alumite Amazing Mold Maker, but I only picked that because it was available locally.
Probably gonna do it anyway since he comes with 2 face plates and I own 2 of him, but thought I'd see if anyone has done anything like this before?
It’s a good question but difficult to answer. What I know is that vinyl and silicone reacts to each other. Leaving marks on the vinyl. PVC is harder in structure and there could be on component that can leave marks on PVC too. I recommend a plastic layer between faceplate and the part you want to attach. As far as I know Resin and PVC don’t react to each other but I can be wrong.
