Have you seen this TV ad? .... Isn't this just green-stuff?

Why am I not sculpting with this? It seems a lot cheaper than what GW sells and even the stuff you get at hardware stores. I'm a victim of marketing.

Sure it's an epoxy, there's lots of different types. It's not necessarily got the properties of GS though. Might be worth experimenting, especially with cheap stuff.

Check out Kneadatite and Milliput for a variety of epoxy putties for different purposes.

As Jazz is for Loser says, you need to experiment to find the one that suits different kinds of modelling.

GW's "green stuff" is literally just Kneadatite repackaged at a higher price.

Mighty Putty is just water proof epoxy, repackaged and overpriced. It has a set time of 3-5 minutes which is not good for modelling.
