Plasti-Dip

[Punisher]

Anyone use plasti-dip on minimates before? Does it bond well? Can it be modified (torn, cut, etc) after it dries?

I have an idea for a project and it just may be what i need...

Thanks in advance

Yes! To all of the above.

I used it ages ago and wanted to find more uses for it, but my container of it basically dried up (dunno if that\'s common)

The biggest problem is that it is a liquid and will act as such until it dries, so it's harder to control than say, sculpting.

Here it is as a rough mask and you can see it sank into the hair-hole

I also used it (along with some twisty-ties) for the shoulder-fire on Earth-X Namor, and the torso piece of Earth-X Cap\'s flag toga

And I know non-Minimate customizers Jin Saotome and Kyle Robinson have used it for various things

Awesome, thanks! Nothing came up when I did a search for it, odd.

Seems perfect for what I need it for. I found out about it through Kyle Robinson's tutorial actually.

How much did it cost you when you got it? And how big exactly is the can?

[Shamrock]

I guess it was kinda the size of an average sized spray paint can. It cost like, $7

And oh yeah, used it for most of the damage on my Zombie too.

So, what are your plans?

I want to make a Terminator "Skynet Lab" with different Terminator models getting "skin" put on. Hopefully my Home Depot has some

[Shamrock]

Yeah, I hope so to, becausr you absolutely need to make that.

At my Home Depot it was in the spraypaint section, at my Lowes it was near tools.

Yeah, this stuff is good. i made Carnage's tentacles out of it.

I keep meaning to try this stuff out. Thanks for the reminder.

I know there was a user here who posted about using this stuff, but I can't find the post and link it since I'm on my phone. It should be in this subforum, though.
