MAKE magazine visited Scott Hensey in his studio again and this time he taught us how to make the very toy wax he has been using for years!

(See our first visit with him: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fc94qr...)

Here is the "Scott Hensey Toy Wax Recipe"
240 grams of Carnauba
240 grams of Candelilla
60 grams of Bee wax
1350 grams of Paraffin wax
1500 grams of Talc
? Red, ? Brown, ? White Crayons for color: Come up with your own color!!

Scott is currently purchasing his ingredients through makingcosmetics.com.


Scott Hensey, owner of Anaglyph Sculptures (www.toysculpt.com), has been sculpting action figures, toys and statues for over 30 years. In fact, chances are you have one of his toys in your home (or up in your parents attic). Scott has worked on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles line, Happy Meal toys for McDonalds, Pixar, Star Wars, Disney and much much more. Here is a peek into Hensey's techniques, inspiration and amazing office of his toy creations.

    I always wondered how sculptors get those incredibly precise lines. I tried that with clay and spouted nothing but profanity when trying to replicate this. After all these years past, now I know.

    I'm curious what kind of mold is then created around the wax?

    I saw another video with Scott Hensey (not sure if it was with Make) about how he became a toy sculptor. I found that fascinating but this one even more so. I could watch him work all day. I'd love to have that job...lol. Thanks for sharing. I would like to see more of Mr. Hensey.

    Can anyone tell me an appropriate total number of crayons for this recipe? I don't want to "over crayon" my wax on the first try :)
