The Native trial pack suits figure sculptors who prefer a tan-brown working colour. Its mid-tone makes planes, recesses and shadows easier to judge than a bright white body, while the clay-like, fine-grain feel supports fingerprints, eyelid creases and other close detail. Allow 1–3 hours for the workable stage. The finished piece needs no baking: the material hardens by itself and completes its cure at 24 hours.
If the fresh mix feels too sticky, Aves advises waiting 20 minutes before continuing.
For delicate feathering, work with Aves Finishing Solution; use water when smoothing a broad area.
Disposable gloves are part of Aves' directions, along with different tools for taking material from each part.
The cured surface accepts paints and stains for the chosen finish.

Notes · Q & A
What's the difference between Green Stuff and Milliput-type putties?+
Green Stuff is flexible and springy, holding fine sculpted detail like cloth and cabling. Milliput-type putties are harder-setting and sand smooth once cured, which makes them better for gap-filling and surfaces you want to blend flat. Many sculptors mix the two.
How do I stop epoxy putty sticking to my tools and fingers?+
Keep a little water on the tool and your fingertips as a release; the putty won't grab a wet surface. Work in good light and let very tacky putty firm up for a few minutes before shaping fine detail.
How do I get the mixing ratio right?+
Most epoxy putties cure at a 1:1 mix of the two parts by volume, kneaded until the colour is fully even with no streaks. Under-mixing leaves soft patches that never fully harden, so mix longer than feels necessary.
How do I fill a seam gap cleanly without losing nearby detail?+
Press a small amount of putty into the gap, then wipe the excess back with a wet tool or a cotton bud before it cures, leaving putty only in the recess. Cleaning up wet saves sanding over detail later.
