i am making an action figure, custom, but ummm, i need to re-sculpt his jaw in a big way, will milliput become hard enough not to break or atleast support play?
I watched this video ages ago, probably last year, then a couple of weeks ago i went to a wargaming fair and got a pack of milliput because i remembered you said it was good. I haven't used it yet. What i normally do is use blue-tack and put super glue on it to harden it. i also use it to help stick annoying bits on metal models that are really hard to stick together and it also stops them from breaking so easily.
Don't forget to use gloves. Milliput is irritant for skin... save sculptors have now problems of skins. Mix with tools sculpt. You can dilute with water ti make jus or to put the milliput with precision.
dicovered milliput less than 6 months ago rarely use it mainly for gaps on modles saves a lotta cash where GWS charge somat crazy like £6/7 for a pack of green stuff milliput is half that
one thing you forgot to mention is the fact its water soluble, and can be be finished smooth with a wet brush, rather than file/sand away the excess after hardening. This also helps its adhesion to surfaces
I had this stuff tried making a demon for dongeons and dragons but it never really worked out for me that stuff was like wall plaster I think I mixed it wrong
Milliput's been on the plastic model-kit scene for years and is really good for filling, smoothing and modelling accesories from. Aas you say, it's firmer,less sticky, consistancy while working, gives it advantages over Greenstuff. The original sandbag-putty :O)
Milliput can be mixed w/ green stuff for a best of both worlds. You can use a rubbr tipped brush to make flawless seams. You can also add water to it to make miliput juice that can be brushed on your mini where there is poor casting. Can also be sanded.
milliput is awsome, you're using the standard grade though, it's not that good for sculpting because its grainy and doesn't alkawys go smooth. But it's great for gaps and base work. The milliput superfine (white) is amazing for sculpting it's so smooth gives great detail and leaves you with a great rock had finish.
tell me more about this stuff, can you like use it for customization of your minatures, CSM i could make them more unqie looking , or on any model, tell me abit more about this stuff it looks very interesting :)
miliput is also good for making custom base's... when it drys as hard as stone meaning that if you make base detail with it it turns out really well though if you make a model with it and you drop it it can smash not very easy though it would have to be pretty beet up to smash but if you dropped it 2 or 3 times it mite hurt... 1 down side with it is it is heavy when it drys...
i use miliput alot ^^ it is grate for filling though i use a putty paste it just fills the gap and is easy to model
What I used to do was to twirl tissue paper into a line and then stuff into the crack and then dab white glue into it, after 2 or three times and a little filing it was almost invisible when primed.
Let me get this straight about Warmachine(I'm not trying to bash it I'm just asking) There people from the future who operate gaint robots, except for there Hero whos one foot looking badass I think, don't know don't play, Yet these GAINT ROBOTS mind you from the FUTURE, do not have GUNS. Just asking whats up with that?
@Whatsmahpasswurd Its not set in the future. Its a fantasy based game where everything is steampowered, save for a few Cygnarian inventions. And many of the 'robots' which in this game are called Warjacks do have guns on them. The Man-O-War unit that is being featured in this video are actually steam powered suits with men inside. They carry shields with cannons build in as well as their axes.
Like Lunis said, it's not a future based game, its a steampunk game, there are guns, most of the "robots don't have people inside they are mechanical who are controlled by the warcaster.
I have no idea about warmachine either but i can see the point of not having guns. If both sides have lots of armour then guns will be like throwing snow balls at each other, how ever a bit choppy axe can cut open thye foe. Also it could be cerimonial eg:(some of the) Paple gaurd have no guns, Queen's Guard have stupid hats.
Milliput is good because it sands better than Green Stuff, when you are doing tanks you can hide panel lines easy as hell with some Milliput, a sanding, then some paint on some mr surfacer 500(or another liquid putty) and a light sanding with a high grit paper. This is mostly for display models, a bit too much work for Tabletop unless you are a bit OCD like me.
Search "Plamo" in Youtube and check out the Japanese model masters at work, you pick up lots even if you can't speak Japanese.
Thank you! I have used milliput and green stuff both. I found milliput to be coarse grained and green stuff to be very fine. That makes them useful for different things. I use green stuff for very fine work and milliput for rougher stuff or coarse work. Great video!
fully sandable, able to carve it with a knife and create a sharp edge, and mix it with green stuff 50/50 and you get some of the better qualities of both.
Also, press a depression into a small ball of it and put a drop of water in it and mix it around and it will create a very thin miliput "juice" you can paint on to fill tiny gaps or pitted areas you want extremely smooth on metal models. When dry, sand it smooth. It's good stuff for things that you can't do with GS.
its called liquid green stuff from gw you paint it on instead of sculpting
