Here is another tip for you all that I use often. You can mix your milliput 50/50 with childrens plasticene to make a more flexible putty when it hardens. This greatly reduces costs when sculpting many figures. I use this mix to bulk up my wire skeletons before doing the sculpting proper.

It's called Milliput Juice. Back in the days of metal-miniatures it was used to smooth out the rather rough surfaces. Milliput ist great because it reacts different to water than Greenstuff. Milliput tends to get kinda creamy. Thanks for the video. Good reminder that Milliput is perfect tool for filling those little gap.

@TheStuffedIguana 4 жыл бұрын
Okay. Saw this a few months ago and it has been invaluable. It's a great video! BUT one thing that is worth adding is that the exact same method is amazing for getting a smooth surface for areas that you have sculpted. So, if you have a rough area with a few errant tool marks - don't panic, do your best. Then let it dry and essentially give it a wash using the exact same metho posed. And much like a glaze or wash, it will run into the various cracks and divets that are on the model, making a nice smooth area. I may or may not have first tried this whilst trying to get a witch elf bum looking smooth....

@philgee486 4 жыл бұрын
Such a stunning secret Marco! Probably the most help I've gotten for sculpting, it's exactly what I'd hoped liquid greenstuff would be but never was. Stopped using milliput years ago because there were other options without the chalkiness. This option removes that issue, gives infinite adjustment and the ability to add particles to a "cream" for rust and surface texture effects. Superb for adding raised damage effects on bullet/shell hits, building up noses and cheekbones for restoring poorly cast facial details. With my first mix I added bigger pects and six pack abs to a unit of feral orcs, fixed the hair texture on two models as a proof of technique, added bullet hits and rusted up a trio of gaslands cars and a tanker, painted it onto a wire armature I'd made for wings for an android sculpt project, pasted it onto an archway to make the stonework relief and add some runes for OSL, added bark and roots to two creepy twisted trees made of wire, filled some really disgusting gaps on some wolves I bought years ago, turned a tub of random beads into clusters of alien eggs some creepy hanging egg sacks and with the last of the mix textured a handful of bases. Next time I'll mix less... Next job add distinguishing features and detail to my mass of Deep Madness dupe sculpts that I reposed with hot water and then add damage and details to my collection of scifi doors. I can finally put a new arm/hand/spell on that ridiculous medusa from black rose wars Filling cream and detail paste from Milliput - who'd have guessed? Plus I do love the smell of isopropyl, I was a lab chemist years ago, exiled to the solvent lab a couple of days a week, now if only you could find a hobby excuse for using diethyl ether... Wonder what it does to magisculp? Great work Marco, just like with your oil paint washes, you're out there experimenting and developing practical techniques for us and then demonstrating them clearly. Great inspiration but more then that it's practical help.

New subscriber here. I have watched many videos on milliput and you are right no one knows This trick. Most videos show them thinning it down with water which in my experience takes forever to get the consistency you need and makes a huge mess. When it is thinned with water, it also seems to lose adhesion to the surface when dried. Thank you so much now that I know this I can fill gaps and fix imperfections with ease. Thank you for your videos and keep up the good work!

@casanovafunkenstein5090 3 жыл бұрын
Another thing that I discovered is that by mixing in a small amount of Vaseline (I was new to modelling and had put more on my hands than I needed to) it starts to resemble worked chewing gum and stiffens up noticeably, though it will still bind to models. I have found that this is condusive to when you want to apply a large area of texture as it sticks less to tools and fingers and holds its shape a bit better without the usual need to allow it to cure for a bit before it stops sticking to you more than what you're sculpting. The end result is a bit less grainy looking and smoother, though I found it more difficult to blend joins with itself (for example when wrapping material around an armature, though at that point to get good results you're either an amazing sculptor already or the model is large enough that you might be better off using a different material to save on cost and/or create the texture using alternative means.
