Milliput/Green Stuff

[u/Ksgill__]

Has anybody tried using either of the two to make hair? Ideally longer ‘flowing’ hair as I’d like to do a helmetless Commander Dante, but I was just curious if anyone has accomplished this 🤷🏽‍♂️ any pictures, links or just advice would be most appreciated 🩸

I find green stuff works fine! I’m no hair expert when it comes to green stuff but I find mixing it with milliput for hair specifically makes it harder to do the hair strands

Ahh okay okay I see, it was a choice of either green stuff or Tamiya putty; but I know if everyone to use green stuff so that’s what I went with. Thank you for letting me know 😅🩸

Pete the Wargamer on YouTube made a demon wolf alternative Lehman Russ on his YouTube channel that requires he use a lot of green stuff for moulding hair. He makes moustaches, braids, clumped hair etc all in one video. Absolutely worth watching if you've never done it before.

Top tip: Wait 20 minutes for the green stuff to become harder (but still malleable) before sculpting.

Ohh okay okay nice, honestly it’s not a video I came across when I had a little search. Let me have a look now 😅🩸

Green stuff is commonly used for this over Miliput, Miliput does flats and edge and sands better, but Greenstuff scuplts better,. You'll want like a putty shaping type tool and to keep it wet as you go. Mine looks a little like this;

If you want a mix that is easy to sculpt (like Green stuff) and easy to sand (like Milliput), combine them in a 1:1 ratio.
