Ermagerd!

Now I have your attention I can begin.

This post is all about me raving about a new material I have discovered that makes smoothing out joints, cracks and holes incredibly easy. When I actually found it my face was probably indistinguishable from the image starting the post.

This substance is really simple to use as well, merely grab a brush and put it on, if you apply it too thick add a little water and spread it around, after a short while it dries out. 

This substance first came in solid form and that in itself it perfect for sculpting and filling in larger holes in a material to cover up joins etc. It even has a slight give meaning that it can be used on things that need to bend or flex slightly.

Epoxy putty, affectionately known as 'Green Stuff' by the people who use it is the solid version. I use the Tape which comes with a blue hardener side and a yellow side, when mixed together (into a green colour, hence the name) it is fully moldable and sets solid within 24 hours. This can be Purchased through Games Workshop, who are absoloutely extortionate in pricing the stuff 6 inches for just over £6, or you can go to THIS shop and purchase 36 inches (3 feet) for £10 once you have added postage.

I purchased Liquid Green Stuff from Games Workshop (at a slightly extortionate £2.30 but I am sure you can purchase this cheaper online). This stuff is amazing, and was just perfect to fill in the mould lines on my converted Helbrute Model...
