BOHS Black Modeling Foam Clay - 1.1 Lbs, Air Dry,Crack-Free,Non-staining -for Figures & Sculptures,Cosplay, Kids Education, Slime Add-ins, 500g

Very easy to work with. Takes a little to dry depending on thickness of creation. Faint smell, no color transfer. Perfect for our purpose, would definitely buy again.

This is THE best air dry I’ve used to date. Can’t go wrong with this one. Minimal shrinkage - can paint, sand, & isn’t too brittle once fully dried. I use to make interchangeable wigs & clothing items for my the epoxy characters I make for my daughter.

This is the Best fun time. You have about seven minutes to get your initial shape in and then it starts firming up. But totally pliable. Wonderfully smooth. Such a good time.

This is great for costumers. I have used it for so many items already! Detail work needs to be done with sandpaper after it dries, because it expands as it cures. This was a large amount of it. Sticks to many surfaces!

Works okayish. Feels nice and soft to the touch, doesn't smell, and its pretty easy to form into shapes. The clay does bloat a lot when drying, however, and sagged down on itself even with a wire skeleton insert and constant touch-ups. Tends to sag faster than it can dry, even for small crafts. Tested it out by making a small bunny, and it still ended up messed up. Probably best for kids, but it is somewhat salvagable if you sculpt it after it dries with a sharp blade.

Love this clay! Light and airy, super easy to use with a professional look at the end.

Outstanding to use for cosplay. It's been a multi-year quest to find the right kind of foam clay to use for actual grownup sculpting. This one has one of the same issues (the bubble holes) but I attribute that to it being a clay made out of literal bubbles itself, so that was expected. What I didn't expect, and was very pleasantly surprised by, was its ease of sanding. This stuff takes very well to sandpaper sculpting and dries to a hard sandable finish in about two days of drying. (So make sure you allow for time when you have a con coming up in a few days, speaking from experience here) as I said you'll have bubbles, but all you need to do is reapply, re-dry, and resand until you have the results you wanted. It's worth mentioning that this reapplication process is a LOT faster since you're putting it on a very dry styrofoam surface, and it's great for wicking the moisture away and it'll be ready to sand in a half a day or so. The other thing I love about it over all the other foam clay I've used is how perfect it is for acrylic paint. Two coats of high quality gesso (I use Golden) completely seals it and fills all the microbubbles to an almost glassy finish (providing you sanded to 1000 grit). I'm still working on the tail as you'll see in the photos, to get an idea of a wip, but the horns I made for my partner's Sallie May and the snake for my Rosie hat turned out with a flawless finish. I'm over the moon. I love this clay, can you tell? 👀 (You'll need a gallon ziplock for the bag though, it doesn't reseal very well on its own. So keep that in mind.) I have nothing but good things to say about it if you're using it for anything, but especially cosplay. Quest status complete.

Loved it! Very easy to work with.
