I’ve been looking for media to make the right consistency for my textured arts and this was it. Love it.

Light, easy to apply, dries fast, takes color very well.

The Anatomy of a Flower

I use this to make thick textured flowers, so I mix it with Liquitex basics paints, Liquitex heavy body paints, and even the cheap craftsmart paints. It works very well as long as I don’t overwhelm it with paint, making it lose it’s sculptural stand-ability. Best thing is that it doesn’t crack like regular modeling paste or flexible modeling paste—yet! Can be used on canvas or stiff felt (like hat brims), doesn’t have to be 100% inflexible.

Adds good texture but can get a little heavy on canvas

This is perfect for using with stencils in Art Journaling where weight makes a huge difference. It's also perfect for doing any kind of texture in Art Journals and mixed media pieces. 
Its the right consistency to work well with stencils and hold the shape,of the design. You do have to lift the stencil,off the paper carefully after you have applied the modeling paste so you don't smear the design.

It mixes well with different media to make colored modeling paste. I have used acrylic inks, acrylic paints of various weights, powdered pastels, alcohol inks ( in small amounts ) watercolors and charcoal to color the modeling paste. Everything  I have tried worked well and didn't affect the  performance of the product. 
It's also flexible enough  that when it's used  on paper, in an Art Journal, it doesn't crack or flake with all the page turning and flexing of the paper. It really sticks to the papers very well. 
I work  mostly on various papers   Including gessoed watercolor paper so that's  what I have used this product on. I have not used it on canvas or wood supports. Just paper. 

The only drawback is it does dry very fast especially in thin applications. So whatever tools you are using with this, wash them quickly! Once it's dry it's difficult to,remove from palette knives , stencils etc. 
This applies to the paper too, as long as its wet, you can scrap off any mistakes you might have made and just re apply it....

I have not used this to build up thick layers so I don't know how it performs when applying it thickly. And I haven't tried carving back into ,the dry modeling paste. 

There is a huge difference in weight between this product and the regular modeling paste !  You won't believe how light this is! 
I honestly can't see any use at all for the regular heavy modeling paste! 
Get a small container and try it out.  I like this stuff so much and use so  much of it that I buy it in the largest containers available!
