i was wondering if anyone has used sculpey for any home made decor or for fixing old decorations. my uncle passed me the idea of using it to make a viking ship for my aquarium (my ancestors will be proud.)
i did but i didnt find anything. i looked it up on google, one site i found someone has used it for 2 years without problems, but i wanted to get some more opinions before i use it for anything.
I just had a good look around, and haven't really found anything of much use on Google either.
All I can find is people who have used it for a short period of time with no detrimental effects, but nothing long term. I've also seen it suggested that you should glaze it to ensure it's completely water resistent. :dunno:

well, seen as its a polymer plastic, it shouldn't deteriorate. and most polymer plastics are water resistant. the only problem i have with it is a few toxins might be left after the baking process, in which most would come out after a good weeks worth of soaking in a water bucket. my uncle has used it alot for crafts and small details on halo weapon models (he makes halo weapons and has a few paper craft helmets).
