Dr_PepPeR Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Anyone know of a sculpting medium like Milliput (2-part epoxy) that has a longer shelf life? My Milliput dried out a few years ago tsk tsk. Quote Link to comment

Dr_PepPeR Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 wala na ba sa JMN? JMN still has Milliput but I usually only need a very small amount at a time an when I go back to it, it has already dried out. And that stuff isn't cheap. Quote Link to comment

pongpraning Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 I agree, I could lend you some... just bought Miliput white.i dont use miliput discovered a lot of putty in the market that is great for modelling and very cheap and easy to store all you need is to experiment and most are sold in hardware shops Quote Link to comment
Rasc Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 I usually use tamiya grey putty, a friend suggested me to try Miliput it can cover gaps and seams it doesn't dry fast as tamiya. it usually use in figures, since its water soluble and rock hard when it drys. Quote Link to comment
pongpraning Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 try epoxy cement not the paste version but the compound version it does not dry that fast but its solid and good for adding details and fixing large gaps Quote Link to comment
carbine Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Question people.. What thinner do u use for Academy paints. Thanks! Quote Link to comment
Dr_PepPeR Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Question people.. What thinner do u use for Academy paints. Thanks! As far as I know Academy (the Korean kit company)does not produce it's own line of paints. You might be referring to Academy oil paints and for that I thin it with turpentine or even plain paint thinner. I'm still searching for the best putty for modelling, one that doesn't dry out for years.

carbine Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Good morning. Is there a way to preserve decals? Madaling matanggal kasi decals ng Acedemy. Thanks Quote Link to comment
Dr_PepPeR Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Good morning. Is there a way to preserve decals? Madaling matanggal kasi decals ng Acedemy. Thanks If you mean preserving unused decals, what I do is keep it sandwiched in wax paper then keep it in a ziplock bag. Quote Link to comment
carbine Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 Na apply ko na Doc yung decals sa model and thanks sa idea sa unused decals Quote Link to comment
floppydrive Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 (edited) Na apply ko na Doc yung decals sa model and thanks sa idea sa unused decals Kung nakadikit na sa model yung decal, best way to preserve it is to put a coat of future floor polish or clear coat paint. Wipe and Shine is a local alternative to future floor polish, yung clear wipe and shine, ha hindi yung pula. hehehe Edited May 28, 2011 by floppydrive Quote Link to comment
