Resin Casting Tips?

So I won the iGear orion pax head on ebay and I want to use it in a pair of customs, but I only have one so I wanted it make a few casts.

Ive watched a few tutorials on youtube but before I do this I want to know if anyone has any tips.

Im more than willing to go through the trial and error phases, but could always use some help.

Thanks in advance
Why doesnt my insurance have "giant raidoactive lizard" or "giant F*&king robots fighting a million years long intergallactic civil war" coverage? I mean for f*&k's sake this is Japan, that kinda shit happens here!

Collection Count: i don't know. i'm honestly scared to count. i had to have broken the 1000 mark by now though....
In the tutorial section there is a nice one written by Redline.
Tips For Molding/Casting Your Own Parts
there is another one that has alot of photos here
Random molding & casting tutorial

I would also just search "Molding and casting in resin" on google. there are plenty of how to advice out there. Read/watch a bunch of those, and then give it a shot!
good luck!
