CALPALMY Air Dry Clay (1.1lbs Bag) - White Moldable Foam Clay for Cosplay - Airdry Soft Clay for Kids and Adults - Perfect Modeling Clay for Crafts, Sculpting, and Artistic Projects

I really love this clay! I’m no expert in crafting and don’t do this type of thing often, but I thought it would be fun to try as a beginner, and it’s been perfect for making small figures and designs. It took a little time to get the hang of how it works, and I did a few test figures first. The foam does bounce back a bit as you mold it, so you’ll need to adjust from time to time.One thing to note is to be careful how you set your pieces to dry, as they do flatten on the side they’re resting on. I’ve found it works best when they have one designated base to sit on. As it dries, the outer layer becomes rigid, while the inside remains soft, which allows you to add texture and detail like puncture holes. The clay sticks to itself effortlessly, making it easy to add pieces on or place little details without damaging them (like the little flowers on my bear.)I also experimented with adding a tiny bit of acrylic paint to alter the base color, which worked fine, though adding too much will cause the clay to seize up and become difficult to mold. I also found it paints beautifully once dried. When fully hardened, the clay is lightweight and solid, though it does take some time to fully dry inside, even if it feels dry to the touch outside. I know it's fully dried when I can knock on it and it doesn't bounce back at all and sounds hollow inside.Overall, it’s been a really fun clay to work with, and I’m excited to keep experimenting!

Love this product so much! The container it comes in is also great for storage afterwards as the product itself comes in a bag inside of it which the foam unsticks from the bag great.I’ve used it for the scale texture on my dragon mask as well as all my small spikes and the teeth.The durability once dried has withheld me being clumsy multiple times. Takes paint really well too! in my experience adheres to Eva foam, kids craft foam, and paper machete really well. A little does go a long way with this stuff, I really thought when I first ordered this i’d have gone through it within the day but it’s very surprising how much is really in the containerHere’s what i’ve learned with this product as i’ve just bought my 3rd tub of the 300g-Use this product before painting your item it will not stick otherwise-Allow for 24 hours for thin things to almost fully cure 48 for a stiff-Your clay will dry over hours slightly so as soon as it’s out start working with it, it doesn’t dry super fast but you’ll want to do touch ups within the hour-it drys from the outside in so if it’s a big item give it more time. Big things i’d give days really-If you are doing say spikes or something vertical make sure you have a structure beneath if it has to dry straight up and down (even small stuff) overnight it will fall a bit- great to create textures, let it dry down a few minutes to insure it’ll stay textured

Amazing ! What a neat material ! So fun and easy to work with. I've used it multiple times and the seal keeps it from drying out with no problems.

The media could not be loaded. If you are deciding whether this clay might be useful, buy the smaller size. I bought the 1.1 lb size, and I don't know if I will ever use it all.Pros: light, soft, fun to play with, has about an hour of work time before it starts to harden too much to manipulate. Would be fun for kids. Air dries after about 48 hours.Cons: a bit too soft, and the sculpted object will not hold its shape until about after an hour, so it's difficult to support a piece in that time if it has vertical elements. It also sort of squishes down if it has any substantial weight to it.When fully hardened, after about 48 hours, it is too fragile for many projects. I've seen images of flowers with thin petals made with this, and I would not recommend using this clay for that kind of sculpture because the thinner it is, the more likely it will break.While it's advertised as being for use in making "cosplay" , it breaks very easily, so I don't think it would be good for things like ears, or anything that could stick out and be liable to bang on a doorway or another cosplayer. It might be useful for chunkier cosplay parts, but I wouldn't use it for very large items, like masks, or ornate armor pieces because it would be tremendously disappointing to spend hours making something only for it to break if you accidentally knock it off a table.You can see from the video how easy it is to break, also, it's easy to leave marks on the fully cured item.Final rating: While it appears to have more cons than pros, this is in reference to my intention of being able to build cosplay pieces, which I don't think this clay is really suited for, except for specific circumstances, I gave it four stars, because I can see it being fun for kids to play with. It's easy to use, doesn't require baking, and it's fun to squish around in your hands because of its soft texture.

This product is amazing it is soft and easy to work with. I was looking for a cheap alternative to make dolls with and this did an amazing job! It doesn't work for a bjd doll but if you are looking to make a stationary figure this is a great product for that!

Nice bag of foam clay. Super lightweight and very moldable without being sticky. Smooth texture even when dried, it’s flexible.

It got the job done with what I needed it for, but I can't describe it as a particularly pleasant substance to work with.I was expecting something along the lines of Crayola model magic, but it's rather different from that.It was very sweaty and wet when it arrived, and highly stringy. It has a pretty nasty pungent odor to it, in spite of the claim that it is "odorless". I would describe the smell as being a mixture of chemicals, cheese, and salty meat.Three stars because it got the job done (making silicone molds), but I kind of hope to never touch this stuff again in my life.

I love this stuff it’s so easy to work with and takes details very well
