Congratulations, he's perfect!
And I think Apoxie is amazing for my tasks! But I'm eager to familiarize wit more material, so could I ask you what material do you prefer?
Apoxie becomes sticky if:
1) too much water used;
2) it's too fresh, so sculptors mix 2 parts and put the putty aside for about 30 min.
But the smell... it could be the problem for some people, especially for those who is allergic or just sensitive. I don't pay attention to it.
Monster Clay sounds not too optimistic ^_^
I tried Paperclay, it's similar to La Doll but its hairy structure... Ughhhh... I need finest grain. So I found Mungyo Sculpt Dry instead. It can be "sanded" with water, the top layer just dissolves. I made a model of my toad with it and then made a copy in Apoxie because it's much stronger.
The La still has a little fiberousness to it, but much less than paperclay. I wouldn't be able to get the level of detail with paperclay. It's true crude I think. The fine texture of the La clay is what drew me to it. It also holds up well. If I drop a piece it doesn't immediately break. Although if I threw it at the wall in frustration or something I'm sure it would, lol!
The Monster Clay is aimed at people who are doing special effects make up and prosthetics and ultimately will be making glove molds. It probably works well for that! I still use it to block out ideas and for my mold spues and a few other things, so it's still useful in my studio
Mungyo Clay has no hairy structure at all and is rather strong)) Paperclay was much weaker.
Aha, I understood the purpose of Monster Clay! Should search some examples in Google, sounds interesting.
