[QUESTION] Copy a Mini?

[Lennon]

I have this mini that was made from a company that went out of business 10 years ago and I really want four more for a RPG I am running. I have been looking all over the internet for the last year or so for more copies but I can't find any.

Does anyone have any tips on how to copy a mini, without losing much of the detail?
This is what I am thinking, since I am only making four more, I can make a negative mold (out of what I don't know) and do a pour of melted unused mini's.

I have never done this before any tips?

Throw up a picture of one, and maybe some of the people here will have ones they're willing to sell or trade.
We've even got a specific forum for such things.

First of all are you sure that no other company has taken on the mini range, you don't want to break any copyright laws. If you're sure then I would do it out of resin. You can buy a resin casting kit from any good hobby store (hobbycraft in the UK) then follow the instructions.

Or have a go at sculpting them, at least they'll all be individual

Thanks for the help. I am going to throw up a picture in the appropriate forum.

Matters not if another company has taken the option or not its still breaking copyright.
