Winterstone

  • WINTERSTONE is a white, dry powder mix --- a complex multi-component cementitious mixture --- which when mixed with the necessary water produces a modeling medium of clay-like consistency. It stiffens and hardens gradually and continuously. It works as easily as clay and sets as hard as stone.

  • Magic-Sculpt is a two part epoxy putty that comes in two containers, (as seen above) one resin and one hardener. Magic-Sculp is mixed 1 to 1 by volume in small quantities as you need it. Almost anything can be used as an armature, such as; armature wire, metal mesh, styrofoam, wood and balled up tin foil.
  • Our favorite sculpting tool for Magic-Sculp are Clayshapers. Nothing sticks to these silicone tipped sculpting tools making them great for use with this sculpting epoxy.
  • See also Magic-Smooth - a two part epoxy gel. It does not dissolve foam, making it a great foam coat! It also is a great material for adding texture or as an adhesive to many materials.

  • Shaper tools are handy for grouting, speading adhesives or for smoothing Winterstone or Magic Sculp. The tips are made of silcione so (even though you should always clean your tools after working) nothing will stick to them! Click here to puchase.

  • This metal scrapper is used primarily for sculpting clay, however it is also great for spreading adhesives and sculpting Winterstone. The serations leave an even, textured surface. (Note: Over time Winterstone will wear the teeth down, making finer ridges great for use on smaller pieces.)
