Adam digs out three silicone molds of a Y-Wing starfighter model he made over 23 years ago as prototypes for Star Wars-licensed toys! These fragile molds are prime examples of the challenge that all effects shops face in preserving the work of their past; every casting deteriorates and could destroy that mold. To recover the model work, we put the molds through a CT scanner and 3D print the original model from the negative space within!
