I don't usually work with a lot of putty, I mix small parts and wait until it is cured before I mix a little more to do more things.<br /><br />It took several days to do the conversion of the player that way, I didn't mixed the putty did the trousers and the chest armour and inmediatly mixed more to do the rest, I waited until those first parts were cured before kneading more putty.

Does mixing them impact how long it takes to harden? It seems you mixed quite a large batch there and if I was to mix up that much, it would harden before I would use it all.Tristan Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14542205146980688446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7355583270377263185.post-37160746856285018592014-01-13T17:07:05.359+01:002014-01-13T17:07:05.359+01:00Thanks Tristan!

The A+B modelling putty is a cheaper putty that is quite difficult to use by itself but hardens really well, not as GS that once its cured it is a little elastic. Mixed with some GS it becomes easier to handle and for coarse things or things that doesn't have small details the mix works perfectly.<br /><br />I started to use A+B modelling putty in the Anvil of Doom that needed a lot of putty but only in the anvil. After that I practically mix both putties always, especially in big things like the Trygon because using a mix of A+B and GS has a real impact in the miniature cost and there is no need to do it all with GS.<br />Anvil of Doom:<br />http://sirskofisworkshop.blogspot.com.es/2013/05/dwarf-runelord-with-anvil-of-doom.html<br />Trygon:<br />http://sirskofisworkshop.blogspot.com.es/2013/08/step-by-step-tyranid-trygon-from-scratch.htmlSir-Skofishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16060495223808372303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7355583270377263185.post-61698797382252154122014-01-13T00:13:00.850+01:002014-01-13T00:13:00.850+01:00they look fantastic - can you explain why you comb...they look fantastic - can you explain why you combine green stuff and the A+B?Tristan Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14542205146980688446noreply@blogger.com
