Do we have anything like it here in the colonies?

Hola!

Milliput is a two part empxy putty which is used for a lot of things. Magic Sculpt is a better alternative in my oppinion. Milliput dries almost as plaster, while Magic Sculpt cures like resin, and is much easier to work with in general. Magic Sculpt can be gotten at the RedLancers

Some people just adore milliput. I don't. The first time I tried it, it stuck to my fingers in a really messy way. I thought I had used old milliput that was past its expiry date, so I tried again. Same result. It still must be somewhere in the bottom of my supplies.
Then again, othere modelers think it's the best stuff. It hardens out without losing shape, and it paints easily. I'd say give it a try.

I quite like the Fine White Milliput for filling gaps and stuff in my figures as it doesn't shrink when drying and you can smooth it over with water on your finger......saves time filing when it's dry....it does however leave a white film that needs to be washed off before painting.
Bill Horan in the US uses a stuff called Duro epoxy putty......sounds like the same thing only green but you can mix it in different amounts...like 60/40 for a longer drying time.....Milliput has to be mixed 50/50

Hola,

Duro putty , or Green Stuff (thats what Gamesworkshop calls it, and can be bought from a warhammer dealer) is more like rubber when cured. Great for hair, locks on weapons etc, anything thats fragile. Its harder to sand and file though, but other then that its very useful. If you buy the Gamesworkshop 'Green Stuff' it comes in a ribbon with half yellow and other half blue, very easy to mix!
