Question about Green Stuff.

Post by Gizzurd »

Does Green Stuff ever get truly hard, or does it always remain a little rubbery?

It should get pretty hard. If its rubbery, you may not be mixing it right.

I mixed it 50/50. Should I add more blue or yellow to make it more firm?

First of all, maybe you could tell us what you're using the green stuff for?

Ah, ok.

Well, I'm trying to create shoulderpads for my Orc team. I've mad a couple soo far, but they seem a lot more rubbery than I had expected. Just though somone might have a magic green stuff ratio ... or simply more or less yellow or blue instead of 50/50.

Ok, green stuff is a bit elastic even when it has cured. If you want really hard stuff that you can file as well, you should use brown stuff or milliput (I think).

Green stuff should be hard though, so if your pads are still soft then I dont know what went wrong.
