White Critter Clay from Aves gives you a clean, pale base for sculpts that will be painted, or for pieces you want to leave light. It is a one-part clay made with water, so it needs no mixing and no heat: shape it straight from the 1 lb bag and it air dries to a hard, flat finish. The fine, even texture holds small detail well, and it barely moves as it dries (0–1 % shrinkage). Keep water to a few drops for smoothing, since a wet surface is what makes this kind of clay crack.
30–60 minutes to shape before it starts to firm up
Poke small holes into mating faces to help parts stick together
Paint, mark, seal, carve or sand after it has fully cured
Sanding dust contains crystalline silica, so do not breathe it in
Hands and tools clean up with soap and water

Notes · Q & A
Which glue should I use for plastic, resin or metal?+
Plastic cement welds polystyrene kits; resin and metal don't react to cement, so use super glue (CA). PVA is for basing materials only.
Green Stuff or Milliput — which putty?+
Green Stuff stays slightly flexible and holds fine sculpted detail; Milliput cures rock-hard and sands smooth, ideal for gap filling. Many modellers mix the two.
How long does epoxy putty take to cure?+
Workable for roughly 60–90 minutes, fully cured in about 24 hours at room temperature — check each product's description for exact times.
