    Great video, I made a Jack, the food chain guy, head and it was a success. It was however heavy. I went beyond 3 layers, ending about 1/8” thick. It’s good to know that 3 layers and the application of resin works. I did wonder how you were going to treat the inside. I made a paper crown to keep it from being wobbly. Thanks!

    First you CAN sand resin well! I use Wet/Dry sand paper up to 1500 grit depending on how smooth I want the finish! And instead of a cut up stocking, you can get fine mesh at the fabric store that is stiffer than most cloth and is easier to see through.

    So I just got to the clay part and i'd used Crayola's Air Dry Clay... it looked great putting it on the paper mache head last night, but today a lot of it has cracked/split and in some cases falling off the paper mache.. was there some sort of adhesive or primer to put on the head first before applying the clay?

  • @JustinStanley

    8 ай бұрын

    I used the model magic clay and did not have a problem with cracking or pieces falling off. I believe it is a lot lighter than the air dry clay as well. You could try using some Elmer’s glue to reattach. The additional paper towel paper machete layer will also act as additional support for the clay.

    @@JustinStanley Yea, could be the difference between model magic and crayola. either way, I did look up ways to reattach the clay to the mache and carpenters wood glue actually worked surprisingly well for anyone else that runs into this. for cracks, they did recommend just wetting the surface and working new clay into the cracks and let dry. I did that and still found it cracking in the same places, so maybe just don't use the Crayola Air Dry for this project. Agreed the added paper towel mache should help smooth things out, so we'll see how it turns out.

    You could probably get away with it since you will put more paper machete and epoxy over it. The model magic was nice because of how light it is.

    I used 1 cup of water and 2 tablespoons of flour. Mix the flour in cold water until it's completely combined until all lumps are gone. Next heat the mixture on the stove until it starts to bubble while stirring the entire time so it won't burn. Let the mixture cool down a bit. It should dry on clear, smooth and hard.
