Materials Epoxy questions..

I think most people use it to sculpt dolls or add bits to an exisiting doll.

I don't know what you saw at Joanne's, or what exactly it is you want it to do, but you can get one popular kind of sculpting putty here: http://apoxie.sculptingstudio.com/

 

I have no idea what you found at joann's, I've never heard of that. o_o To smooth out your original sculpt after sanding, you can spray it with a sandable primer, like Krylon. Epoxy putty is good for making your original or else adding to an existing sculpt. It's an air dry clay that is extremely hard when dry, so you don't have to worry about baking your finished piece- which is why it's good for adding to an existing sculpt.

 

I've never seen that before either! X3 The primer I use I got at the hardware store for like $4 in the spray paint section. I got both grey and white. I put about two coats on, sand, then coat, sand, ext. If you're trying to fill pits or gouges in your doll, try getting an acrylic nail filling kit. Glyndon recommended that to me, and it works great! But it smells really bad.

 

Dude O_o I have that same exact stuff..Heres three words for you, DONT BUY IT!! Though it is great for heavy duty work for gluing things together and you can sand it down, the stuff is in liquid form which is highly IMO in convienent gluing pieces of sculptures together >_<. Its not the same as epoxy and primers, its for gluing things together pernamently.
