If Tamiya products are easy to find and reasonably priced in your neighborhood, you can use Tamiya Polyester Putty. The finished surface may not be as smooth as conventional casting resin, and the curing time will be longer, but polyester putty can be used to duplicate parts as long as they are not too small.

For this kind of parts (small but rather easy to cast) I use automotive filler (7€ for 500 grams). Cures in about 30 minutes.

Thanks very much! I have copied the details by Tamiya Polyester Putty and it was very well!
