Hi all. This time I'd like some recommendations for clay (or clay-like) material to form my scenic bases with. I've tried various things, with varied results. Plaster works decently, but is messy to create and I almost always end up making far more than I need. I tried some auto-drying clay, and while it does pretty good during the molding process, it shrinks a lot when it dries, and this change ruins some of my efforts. My hope is to learn about something I can use that will be easy to work with, then retain its shape when dry. Because my interest is in creating scenes for 1/72 figures and occasional armor, I don't need to work with much quantity at a time. As always, I welcome your input. Take care, and best wishes.
