I found this great tutorial, Green Stuff Casting (On Shoulder Pads), from the Ferrus Manus blog. This is exactly what I was looking for to do my Imperial Fist army. I followed the exact steps in their tutorial and got the following results.
I am very excited with the results, Over the last two days I have done 40 Tactical Icon pads and about 20 Fist Icon pads (I already had some metal ones). I should be able to finish my last two Tactical Squads later this evening.
Anyway, that is an excellent tutorial and I just wanted to show off what I did using it. Thanks for stopping by the blog and please fell free to leave a comment.

Niiice. Looks good! I might have to try something like that on a larger scale for me Immolator. Heheh.
I don't see why it wouldn't work, let me know how it turns out!
Of course! I'll be sure to post up the results on my (Currently new, empty, and unprofessional-looking >>') blog, and link 'em here. :)
Uh oh no link posted, well if you post a link I will add you to my blog roll!
Excellent - thanks for the link, I was wondering if something like this was possible. Good timing too as I'm just about to do a load of Eagle Warriors termies.
Doggles, yes it works wonderfully. The one thing I did notice is you do have to apply some lubricant to the mold every 4th or 5th shoulder pad. I am using petroleum jelly and have had excellent results with it. Good luck adn I would love to see some pics when you are done!
Oops. Well, if you really want the link, here you go:

Like I said, it's pretty ugly and empty so far. Especially since I dunno how to "do" pictures in blogger, like in this post.
