Your complete modelling guide.
Soft dough.
This soft and pliable modelling dough is often a child’s first exposure to creating a model. This sort of dough is very tactile and children are often content just to make their favourite shapes or to just squish the dough in their hands. It is perfectly suited to infant hands. This dough needs to be stored in an airtight container to avoid drying out. Colour varies.
Modelling material.
The most economical modelling material as it never dries out, so it can be used again and again. Despite always being malleable, models will always retain their shape. It can be shaped and worked using modelling tools and can be worked on its own or around a pre-formed armature. Perfect for kids play and professional animators alike..
Air drying clay.
Has all the qualities of traditional clay but without the need for firing. Reinforced with synthetic fibres this clay is air drying with a low shrinkage rate. Drying times may vary. This is a versatile and economical clay. Finished pieces can be coated in PVA glue and acrylic paint.
Incredible foam.
Add new excitement and fun to your next dough project! IncredibleFoam® Dough is like no other dough you’ve used, and it’s great value!
