Green Stuff World Air Dry Foam Clay 250g – Black Modeling Clay
⚫ Air Dry Foam Clay 250g Black
Green Stuff World | Ready-to-Use Black Modelling Compound
Lightweight black acrylic foam clay that air-cures in 24–48 hours and stays flexible when dry. The black colour saves time — use it as a dark base for painting or as a finished surface for shadows, details, and effects that need depth right out of the pot.
🖤 Why Black Works Better
Skip the base coat — shadows, recesses, and dark details are already done. Paint highlights directly on black.
Natural depth — textures and crevices look deeper automatically. Perfect for weathered, gothic, or tactical looks.
Hides mistakes — imperfections blend into the dark surface, making finishing work easier and faster.
Finished look option — leave it unpainted for matte black finishes on props, terrain, and decorative elements.

|
💀 Gothic & Horror Pieces Skulls, gravestones, dark fantasy miniatures, villain details — black enhances sinister and dramatic aesthetics instantly |

|
🎨 Zenithal Highlighting Base Pre-shade entire models in black, then add lighter colours on top — creates automatic depth and professional shading |
🎨 Painting Strategy with Black Clay
Black clay gives you a massive head start. You've already got your shadows done — now just add mid-tones and highlights. This is basically the zenithal priming technique built into your sculpting material.
Try this: sculpt in black, let it cure, then drybrush metallic or lighter colours on raised areas. Instant depth with minimal effort. For finished black looks, just seal it — no paint needed.
💡 Working Tips
⏱️ Curing Time
24–48 hours at room temperature. Thicker pieces take longer — freeze briefly for easier demoulding from silicone moulds.
💧 Smooth & Blend
Wet your fingers or tools to smooth surfaces and hide seams. Black hides small imperfections better than lighter colours.
🎨 To Paint or Not
Leave it black for matte finishes, or paint over with acrylics. Primer + flexible paints work best for items that bend.
🔗 Material Bonding
Sticks brilliantly to EVA foam and Worbla while wet — creates permanent flexible bonds as it cures. Works in silicone moulds too.
