Thread: Some of my Crayola Model Magic characters

Tweet

Some of my props I sculpted and used Crayola Model Magic with in different stages of assembly.

Wow! Is all I can say. I use model magic for the hands on my bluckies. Played with it a few times, but never thought you could do this! Did you really sculpt? Is there some trick to doing it? I would love to know.

WOW! Somebody has real talent......excellent work......wow!

Amazing work! Wow. Great job. I would love to hear any tips as well - I've love to try sculpting.

If you don't already work for a Hollywood studio, you should! Amazing!

Wow! Jollygorilla, you have some serious skill! But I think you knew that already.
I guess the whole "Crayola" brand name made me always think that it was for very simple work. You've definately changed my mind about that.

Are there any down sides to using Crayola Model Magic for this sort of work? Does it crack over time or have other issues?
Why do you use Model Magic as opposed to "standard" modeling clay typically used for busts or other work?
Do you start with a base (like a foam wig form) and just build up from there?

Do tell, do tell.

WOW! Those are just amazing! Do you sell them or are you using them as your props? Totally cool!

BTW... I really like the begging Alien "pup". Did you finish painting that one yet?

I've seen a few of your posts in the past. But I must have missed a bunch of them. GREAT STUFF!

Once again: Very nicely done, all of them! I continue to be amazed at the artistic talents of those who post here on HF.

No way! I can't believe they were all done with model magic! They are fantastic! The only things I ever tried out of model magic crumbled and fell apart as they dried. What's your secret?
