Uuuuuuuuhh.. mmmmmmmm... braiiiiins... That's zombie for I love you!


My first Custom Toy! can I get a woot woot?

4in. Mini Munny doll, was white came with an axe.
(Don't know what a munny is?? What's wrong with you?!?! Click here now and be schooled!! ---> [link] )

He is painted with acrylics and has sculpey horns and ear tag with faux fur hair. Axe has a tape (to help him get a grip) that's painted over with acrylics.

i have a question about the horns.
do you just glue them on the munny after baking the horns themselves?

Nope, I just adhered them when sculpting and they just stuck.. (I stuck them on the head to sculpt them, then baked them on the head, and they just stayed put)

Glue and most things plastic and vinyl and even sculpey do not like each other too much.. (the best luck I have had with attaching things is with a liquid stitches glue.. I used the clear kind.. it was like 5 bucks for a little bottle.. forget which brand.. ) it kinda looks and reacts like hotglue without the hotness! .. it takes a little longer to dry but not too long.. .. it kinda smelled of acetone, and prompted an age restriction of 18 at the register. (got it at walmart.. clear bottle red cap.)

All my sculpt work just sticks naturally, but the hair and stuff is glued into place.

wait so the munny didnt melt in the oven when you baked the horns to it?

nope, you don't bake it for very long and it's at a low temp.

It's actually easier to cut into a munny if you first give it a few mins in the oven.. they come out soft and rubbery feeling.. and very easy for an exacto to slice right through.

(I have had a munny shift a bit though, like so that an arm would become stuck.. or if the head was resting on something while cooling become misshapened.. It's best to bake him in peices not as a whole, and make sure he's on a nice flat surface )

yep, It'll do fine as I said they don't melt, they just get a bit rubbery and soft feeling, but hold their shape.

Super Sculpey is what.. 275 degrees F for 15 mins quarter inch thickness I think? I donno it says on the box

If you are still worried, There is also two part epoxy putty that is self cureing , I myself have never used it, but I've heard of others who love it.. You just have a limited amount of time with it before it starts to harden. depending on the type as little as 1/2 hour or sometimes a couple hrs. I will list cure times on the box. I've never used it myself, I don't like to be time limited, and it can also sometimes be a bit more expensive than sculpey.

Hit up the kid robot forums, there is a ton of useful info to be found there and you can see other peoples progress pics too. [link]

no problem .. I've heard mention of a brand called Magic Sculpt epoxy on the KR boards before.. might be something to look into.
