    Or something of equivelant. I see lots of customs with this stuff, and from what I've heard you just sculpt it on and it dries, no baking or anything. Where is it sold in stores, if at all? None of the art stores near me have it.

    Ah. Also, I was positive there was a "u" in the title. Fuuuuuuuuu-


    I really hate ordering online. It's so easy to get scammed and so much can happen when shipping.

    I wouldn't use Mighty putty, I follow the directions to a "t" and it's quite brittle compared to fixit. plus the dry time is almost instant. I do use it, but I find there are certain sculpts that require the aves.

    your right, it was very sticky too. I just had problems with it "setting" AS i was mixing the A and B. By the time I got it where I wanted, there was 10 seconds left to refine it before it started drying up.

    Aves dry time is a curse and a blessing at the same time. it take FOREVER to cure, but when sculpting a face or something, you need that extra time. If you want it to "fake" set quicker, throw it in the frig or freezer a few minutes...once back to room temp though, it'll soften back up.
