Aves Apoxie Sculpt - 2 Part Modeling Compound (A & B) - 1 Pound, Apoxie Sculpt for Sculpting, Modeling, Filling, Repairing, Simple to Use and Durable Self-Hardening Modeling Compound - Blue

I mainly use this brand when working on miniatures, toys, or just smaller acessories for custom toys. It always works like a charm, making the custom items seem like they were originally factory made after sanding and painting. Directions are easily followed and you can get some amazing detail out of this material if you have sculpting tools already. I recently had a chip come out of one of my counter tops. So I figured I would use this. Again, after sanding and repainting everything it looked original with no issues. Apoxie sculpt is a trusted brand in my household and I hope to use it for many years. I reccomended it for projects large and small, just make sure you follow the directions and use proper safety when handeling and sculpting.

I use this for tabletop gaming. Good for making tactical rocks, smoothing out edges in bases, filling gaps in models and miniatures, and on occasion for casting parts from moulds. Little stiff for the latter use, but it doesn't hardly shrink when curing. Takes paint well (orange wasn't my first choice, but as I usually paint over it I decided the color didn't matter to me, and every other color was two weeks out shipping at the time I ordered it). Sticks decently to most materials, though I have noticed that sometimes you need to add a drop of superglue to miniature bases to help it along. Something about the black plastic the bases are made out of, I think, as it sticks to the grey plastic used in Warhammer, Fireforge, and Frostgrave minis nicely. Sticks to resin decently (used to fill gaps and voids in castings).

This little garden planter was given to us as a gift many years ago. Over those years, it was knocked over by squirrels 3 or 4 times; I was always able to glue him back together. Because he is small and kept surviving, we gave him the name Lucky Cito. We finally decided to put Him in a location where the squirrels couldn’t get to him. He was safely (we thought) tucked in a corner on the patio… but he wasn’t safe for long. Our children and their families were visiting one evening and one of them brought over a set of “Glow in the dark Bocce Balls”. They were having a great time in the dark, out in the back yard, until an errant Bocce Ball went flying and smacked right into poor Lucky Cito. The kids thought it was funny and one of them said “He’s not so Lucky anymore, he’s not going back together this time”. Well, that was a challenge, and I was determined to fix him. I had used Apoxie Sculpt before, for filling holes in wood projects, patching chipped ceramic tile, and other things, so I thought it might work for this. I bought the orange, and the color was almost a perfect match. He is stronger than ever now and lives in a corner in our screen room. Hope he stays safe there. I have included before and after photos.

Works perfect

When arrived part A container was broken. It’s still good and useable. Just glad I didn’t lose any. Had an old part B container I cleaned out and move it into. Likely broke in shipping. Came in a yellow envelope. Would have been safer in a box.

I am using this clay to make fairy houses. The main advantage is that you do not bake or fire to set the clay. It is air dry. This helped me incorporate battery operated lights into my design. It is highly recommended that you wear gloves while using this product to protect your skin. This does make handle the clay more difficult. The clay is somewhat sticky when you first start to work with it, but holds details from a texture sheet beautifully. I also use a foundation like foil, cardboard, or wire to hold the initial shape. The clay will not hold a vertical shape on its on. The foundation also takes up space in the design because the Apoxie Sculpt is expensive. Once the clay is dry it is very strong. It also sticks to most surfaces and can be used as an adhesive. I also use polymer clay where you bake at a low temperature to cure. You can get more detail with polymer clay than with Apoxie Sculpt. They both have advantages and disadvantage. I use both types of clay in my projects. In the picture the branch holding the swing is a foil base then wrapped in Apoxie Sculpt. The door is also Apoxie Sculpt. Most of the other items are polymer clay backed individually. Then I used Apoxie Sculpt as the adhesive to put it all together around a big ceramic mug. You can paint the dry Apoxie Sculpt. I found that if you are using it in an area that will be hard to paint - then buying the clay in the appropriate color is very helpful.

Great stuff

Powerful green PartA Resin barely changes color when mixed fifty-fifty into part A dark gray Apoxie resin and then mixing that Part A with dark gray part B hardener. I added a little yellow to change the bluish hue to purer green. Still too bright a green for my use so after the leaves hardened I painted with metallic or pearly acrylic paint and immediately rubbed off the paint while still wet. Next time I’ll start with the gray and add smaller fraction of green into the gray little by little.

I use this product all the time for crafting and sculpting. The brown is very malleable and blends and smooths easier than some of the other colours (white is the worst). The best part for me, though, was the price which was well under what I pay at my usual retail supplier and I am so glad for that.

Schönes Produkt, das ich sehr empfehlen kann. Die Verarbeitung ist einfach, störende Gerüche sind quasi nicht vorhanden. Die Masse ist ausreichend lang bearbeitbar, trocknet innerhalb von 24h komplett aus und ist dann sehr stabil. Sehr positiv finde ich, dass die Masse während des Trocknungsprozesses nicht schrumpft. Das Finish ist seidig matt. Die Oberfläche lässt sich nach dem Trocknen gut schleifen und nimmt Farbe (Acryl) gut an.

Perfetto come immaginavo

Super Artikel, habe Ihn für meine Tochter gekauft da sie gerne Modelliert. Sie war ganz happy als sie etwas zum modellieren hatte. Richt zwar etwas streng beim aushärten, also lieber an einen gut belüfteten Ort trocknen bzw. aushärten lassen.

Aside from a shipping glitch, always a great product
