Anyone ever use Mighty Putty?

[Vic Zito]

I've seen a vid where Ones customs says he uses it...

I've sculpted something over a head with it, and its been over 3 days and it isnt dry. some parts are actually still moist.

i've pm'd a few people and no one seems to know anything about it so im making this thread....if you got some tips for me...let me know!!

thanks a lot!!

Yes I've used it before. Make sure when u cut a piece off to knead it very well.

It should dry and harden like a rock in like 1/2 hour.

Maybe you got a bad batch or its old.

The stuff is great but the work time with is short

 

[Vic Zito]

gaaaah. this is so annoying. i've already sculpted an entire head sculpt....now its garbage!!!

 

[Vic Zito]

so lets assume i didn't knead it very well. could this have been the problem?

my head sculpt is still green and white....definitely not hard as a rock....some parts of squishy, some parts are still moist...after 3 days!!!

 

[Vic Zito]

do i have to knead it until the green is gone?

until its whitish/grey?

 

[drthomasholmes]

yes. Kneaded thouroughly.

You could try moulding the soft head's face in plaster, to save your sculpt. Then on your new sculpt, use it as a press mould (maybe with clingfilm if necessary). Can save most of the work you've put in that way.

Or finish the soft one then mould it in silicone, to get a cast.

Always a good idea to read the instructions before you use something. 2 part epoxy (I'm assuming that is what this is) always requires a thorough mixing.
