Will try to start covering tonight...I just drove thru a snow storm to the Jeff dunham show in buffalo...woohoo! Trying to figure out how to make forehead wrinkles ...later...Dennis

BTW Gompie if you click on my Youtube button under my avatar (on the left) and go through the video's I have one with Model magic and how to use it ect....plus a picture of packaging.  That may help give you more of an idea on what it looks like.

I saw it Daryl and it looks like wonderful stuff I search on google and only could find it on American/English pages it is possible that the brandname here is differant I have to sort it out

dacostasr I agree with you what a different to work with 1 cm foam......That I ever worked with 2 cm foam, foolish me
my frontdoor glue-ing project succeed I was cold and the puppet glued

gompie,

Model Magic is produced by Crayola which is an American based company.  Not sure if they have it in your country. See if you can find something in your country that is an air dry clay for children.  That is the market that Model Magic is geared toward so it may be that there is a product in your country that is similar.  Do you have craft or hobby stores in the Netherlands?  Either there or perhaps in a toy store would be the place to look.   

Gompie,

I did some searching on-line and found a post at another craft forum that was talking about Das Air Dry Clay that is made by Prang. http://www.wetcanvas.com/forums/showthread.php?t=503479 One of the folks that where talking about it was from the Netherlands so I wonder if it might be available to you. Here is a link to a review about it. http://www.craftcritique.com/2008/08/prang-das-air-hardening-modeling-clay.html

I am not sure if it would be the same as the Model Magic and it might be to heavy once it is dry but if you can find it, it might be worth trying out as an alternative. 

Has anyone here use the Das Prang clay?  I've seen it in stores here before but never picked it up.

Well another new thing to me...fleecing...is that what it's called.  Once again DrPuppet to the rescue with his videos.   The "henson" stitch...very cool.  The puppet is coming together...a piece at a time.  Lots of seams, but oh well, this is my first time...I think it looks okay.  Here are some pics so far:





you can probably see the seems...

Later,

I doubt if it is the same stuff. I know das clay that dried in the air but that is like normal clay. When it is dry it is not flexibel and it breaks fast, what I understand that model magic dries in the air and it still flexibel like a rubber ball.
But I saw in the forum is a Dutchman so I going to ask him about this maybe he knows something. I let you know............. and Shawn thanks for looking

dacostasr what a great effect when you put the fabric on it but what a work to make the pattern but is turned out great.

Wao, its turning great!
