This was my first attempt at Jonni’s patterns that I bought in Spring lol it’s still not done., I used the modeling paste and thick acrylic and pallet knife to put it on…instead of papermache . I’m working on the mane, had to cut off 2 inches of wet string, lol not fun but it’s getting there…now for other side…great pattern …I love it Jonni…
That is a great horse head. Beautifully done.
Nice!
It is looking very good. I have never heard of modeling paste so I will look that up.
Brenda, I’d love to know more about your use of the modeling Paste instead of paper mache. Like – how thickly is it applied, does it take a long time to dry, and have you noticed any cracking?
Hi no it hasn’t cracked on me yet and I do paintings with it …its made with acrylic so it hardens like a plastic ..but only use Utrecht modeling paste from dick blick. Other brands don’t work the same..it drys in 24 hrs I don’t put it on heavy just let dry then do another layer if needed. I haven’t liked the previous layer so just painted it again..
