No stick-to-it-iveness

I recently discovered PaperClay for sculpting new figures.  It has a long working time and dries completely within a day or three.  However, I also tried it out as a filler material for castings.  That didn't work out so well because PaperClay doesn't have a sticky attribute like Magic-Sculpt.  PaperClay worked for small indentations, but not for larger cavities.  PaperClay sticks to itself well enough, but not to other surfaces.

    Kenny,
    Look for Celluclay, I added features to a Bill Anderson figure and it dries rock hard and I and I have not had any problems with it not sticking.
    You can also cover it with a light layer of wood dough o makes excellent lips and noses.

  2. I've had to mix my paperclay with a little glue or put some glue on the other surface to get it to stick.
