Its not HUGE but its around medium size tub. you can scult a head hands free, but you have to heat it up. it comes in a tub and right out of the box it is hard but not dried out hard, just hard. microwave for 20 seconds and it will be moldable like air dry clay. leaving it out will just get hard like before, a little heat will soften it up again. yes it is brown.

Nope. Plaster is a hard material, and encasing someone's hands in it is already a bad idea. But its made worse by the fact that plaster hearts up as it sets, this doesn't get very hot. But it could get uncomfortable. Stick with alginate for casting hands, its quicker and non toxic! Seriously you could probably eat it and be fine. It also sets up quicker. The place where this comes In handy (unintentional pun right there) is making the positive of the hands from the negative alginate. I really hope this helps, and saves you hands!

This is a gorgeous puppet. It fits an adult hand well and the arms/hands would come down to almost your elbow. It is sizable but still a hand puppet.

The whole body of the toy minion is made of soft rubbery material. That portion tends to be prone to dirt. The only part where paint may come-off could potentially be on the lower portion of the body (the pants part of the minion's overall outfit). But my toys' paint are all still intact. (I bought all three minions plus Gru). It doesn't even seem like easy to make a scratch on it. Overall, my opinion, it's well built and good quality. The eyes are fantastic because it moves to the direction where it's tilted and eyelids close when It's head is tilted back. No regrets.

Ir is Plastic, I don't know what kind of project you have. But there is not much space underneath, unless you fix it in the border. There is about aone centimeter around it. Other than that in the middle, it probably will touch the gear that makes movement. The piece is good and works well, but it is intended fork light objects and I hope you are not planing to use for smithing heavy

We bought it as part of a Halloween costume. It's pretty thick so I'm not sure you'd be able to use it for detail work ... maybe if you watered it down a bit and had the right brushes / tools?

Yes. It can be used to make cosplay and costume armor, but 4 oz is hardly enough to make a whole arm. Depending on the design, you might be able to do that with about 16oz. Personally I would suggest 32oz.

Yes the moulding is very flexible, and very easy to use. I put it around the bottom of my porch pillars, it easily bent in a 10 inch circumference it took paint well, and looks just like wood.

It's very light weight. Like a polyurethane substance...rubber on outside and hard foam inside, very durable material. You cannot bend it or unshape it.

Concur with SRC's answer. The back is not necessarily something you want facing people, and could be a hazard for little hands. Also, it throws off a ton of heat. Make sure it is clear of anything that can burn/melt.

I have two of these, the glow-in-the-dark and the clear one. The glow-in-the-dark is much stiffer than the other. I can only give you two suggestions: Like a lot of clays and putties, it becomes softer and more pliable the longer you "work" it. If I am thinking ahead, I put the container somewhere where it can be warmed by my body heat ahead of time so that it warms and softens a bit before you want to use it.

not sure. My grandson has it. He was 6 when I bought it. It isn't to thick. his hands fit it good.

It doesn't really harden. It's basically like a liquid chalk substance. It's closer to paint in texture than something that hardens. It does dry extremely fast. I'd say within minutes you could touch it and it would not rub onto your hand (in the summer anyway). I used it on grass.

very soft. You can control the softness with pressure while holding it. I love mine. You can get brush heads that are firmer, but it comes with a soft brush head for sensitive skin.

Mine is brown and beige with a little bit of white veins. (Mostly brown.) We use it next to a black leather chair in the RV and it looks great. Just the right height for the padded arm.

The dolls head is soft enough to be squeezed but not like a stuffed toy. It holds it shape and does not change even when you brush their hair, put ribbons in and ponytails. This is a well loved doll!!

It's downright floppy. Hold it sideways and it'll droop under its own weight. Handles are cheap plastic too - broke several of mine on first use. They come apart with maybe 5-10 lbs of pressure. I'd have to disagree about it being ok for martial arts use. The handle is unrealistic and prevents or impedes typical blade handling techniques, the flopping makes it impossible to simulate a real cutting stroke, and it'll break after a few uses anyway. The good ones with some rigidity are like 10 bucks. Money well spent.It's probably ok as a prop, but you're bound to get some off-color jokes when you draw it and it flops. It's downright floppy.
