Copper Faux Finish

This is a quick guide to applying Sculpt Nouveau's metal coatings and patinas.

Shown here is an application of primer, copper B coating, and green patina.

Oh yeah, the banner over this text box is a picture of my shop wall. It is painted with iron B metal paint and finished with tiffany green and tan patina. Nice indeed.

I've been wondering this for a while.... I can understand making a mold to create duplicates, But my question is, What material do you recommend I use to create a sculpture ? instead of just using an existing sculpture ? do you have any links to where I can buy the sculpting material?

@pbr145 You can use any of the NSP clays or Plastiline clays on our webstore.

Will this work on hard plastic?

@MrHansolo90210 Yes. Same process. The primer is the key to getting a good bond.

@hammyhottixoxox These are hard materials to find, hence our webstore and the goodies therein. Yes, it will work over fired clay.

Will this work on clay sculptures such as busts.? With the same material.? Also are these materials able to be found in stores that aren't online.?
