Bulking medium

Subject: Bulking medium Fri Apr 21, 2017 6:45 am

Hi everyone,

I wasn't quite sure where I should post this thread, so apologies in advance. I've purchased a few figurines that I'd like to modify slightly by adding a bit of bulk to the cheeks, ears and tail... What sort of permanent medium (a sort of putty or whatnot) can I use to "add" to a plastic figurines? Cheers!

I use Milliput because it's cheapish and dries rock-hard, but it might not be the best if you're intending to do detail work. Aves Apoxie (or Epoxy? I never get it right) Sculpt is, I believe, the one most used by people intending to sculpt/re-sculpt their figures :)

Yes, I would also recommend Apoxie for that kind of work :)
