after all iot's a matter of taste
i mean some oly working with GS and have their habbit
because when you use a new media you have to find how to work with it and modified all your old sculpting protocol
milliput is good for blade, weapon
fimo was good for skin effect
gs for everything but not sharpe angles
andrea sculpt similar to miliput
magic sculpt for clothes, banner

may be this putty is the ultime one who make all possible
tell us when you will have results

I don't completely agree, Stefan. The choice of particular sculptor is a matter of taste. Some like properties of gs, some milliput, some prefer on-ingredient stuff like fimo.
Still, every putty has its own properties and those properties are not a matter of taste, but can be determined - no matter if a tester likes those properties or not.
I want professionals to describe these properties more than their own preferences.

This product was introduced to me just yesterday! I'll get it next time and tell you my expreience with it.

What I've heard is that it is really good stuff and that some pretty good sculptors are enjoying the product!:)

Ah, procreate! I have had some trial stuff from my m8 who owns a shop in Utrecht (Holland). He has been selling it or a few months now. It is very nice to work with. I have had some experience with (almost) all other putties, and in some area's procreate seems better.
As far as putties go it is actually not as sticky as most. You still need a lubricant on your tools though, just like with green. I use water or spit (yuk). it smooths out easy, much easier than Green. thus it is more user-friendly for people just starting out. it holds detail pretty well, also somehwat better than Green, but not much different from Brown. It doesn't 'stretch' as well as green (the chewing-gum like properties can sometimes be used to your advantage in Green). But the most likeable and biggest difference between procreate and other putties is the color/finish. I really like it, because you can always see very well what you are doing (it does not 'shine' like green sometimes does).

Thats just some of my experiences, hope it helps!

Ah Acryllix, the first to enter here after I introduced the site to Tijn in Utrecht... But who this be? Come on, spill the beans!;)

Oh, and using enter every now and then wouldn't harm as well, makes it a bit more easy to read.

A bit of an old topic this one, but I really have a question about this stuff:

How do you use it properly?

I've used GW greenstuff before (no major sculpting, only small gap filling and little conversions, and that's what I'm trying to do with the new stuff also), and that worked fine for me, but Tijn recommended this stuff. I've ruined several mini's with it now, and I don't know what to do to use it well.

My major problem:

It sticks to EVERYTHING (my hands, tools, the paper it is wrapped in) except to the mini itself... quite annoying when you try to sculpt something (e.g. a knife), and you're almost finished and with the last stroke of your tool it just sticks to the tool (and not on the mini anymore, too bad for Deneghra... and my state of mind as well). Also, when I try to add a little piece of the stuff to itself because the piece attached to the mini is too small, it doesn't even stick to itself anymore.

I've tried wetting my tools with water, but that doesn't seem to help. I've tried different mixtures (more/less resin or hardener), but that's really difficult when you try to make only a little amount, I really can't see if it's 40/60 or 50/50.

So, if anyone can help me with this, please tell me what to do... Deneghra doesn't like the trashcan...
