Yesterday I tried covering straws with modeling clay for a project. I kneaded it well and also used a little water to distribute everything evenly. Then I looked at it this morning and it's all full of cracks 🙁 I don't really know it that way, and that's probably because of the masses themselves? Do…
Hello, I've made something out of air-drying modeling clay and I have a question. Can I write on it with brush pens? I know that acrylic pens are best, but in the worst case, felt-tip pens will work. I don't have any acrylic pens, and if possible, I'd rather use brush pens than felt-tip pens….
Hello, I have to create a work of art that will take 7-10 hours. This one should be about a work of art that has a personal connection to myself, home—> emotions, grief, longing,… I'm thinking about what I can make; it should be something special, not too heavy and made of modeling clay. I've…
Hello folks, I made something with air-drying modeling clay. Unfortunately, part of it broke off and didn't stick. Unfortunately, I don't have any superglue or anything like that at home, just Pritt and liquid glue. I need to finish this in an hour, as I still have to paint it. Can you simply stick the…
Hello, I'm planning to make a candle dome out of modeling clay. However, I need something to make it waterproof and also fireproof/heat-resistant. Sorry for the spelling mistakes 😅 and thanks in advance.
Hey, hello. So, I have this problem: no matter how well I clean my work surface, I constantly see dirt particles trapped in my modeling clay. It's incredibly annoying. I see it in YouTube videos and general instructions, for example, where they somehow manage to do a neat job, but mine looks like a mess….
I'm looking for a good UV lamp & gel. I made a mistake and bought a UV lamp from Action. I make figures out of clay and wanted to paint them with UV varnish and let them harden under the lamp. They've been in for 7 minutes and the paint is still soft. The polish…
Good evening dear Gutefrage Community, Let's say I'm making a mold of something out of modeling clay. What could I use for the mold that hardens quickly and that I might get from a hardware store or have at home? Many thanks in advance.
I want to glue DAS modeling clay onto a wooden surface. Unfortunately, the clay just falls off. Or do I have to moisten everything with water? The manufacturer states that the modeling clay can be applied to substrates such as wood, glass, plastic, etc. Does anyone have any idea how this can hold?
Hello, I'd like to make a small box out of modeling clay, and I have two questions. Can I paint the dried box with oil paint afterward? Would the paint stick? And would the hinges stay in place if I screwed or pressed into the clay?
Does anyone know what filler/modeling compound was used here? How does it adhere and on what surface? And where can I buy it?
Hello everyone, I have a question: I made a paw print of my dog with FimoAir (I simply pressed the paw into the mold) and now I'd like to make a negative copy of the paw print. Can I pour plaster into it and then remove it, or will the plaster stick to the Fimo…
