This large abstract bird was modeled with DURHAM'S Putty brushed over a wire armature anchored in a stone base. The unusual effect is enhanced by painting it black and white.

If you enjoy creating unusual effects, DURHAM’S ROCK HARD Water Putty is for you.

For example, DURHAM’S allows artists to achieve unique surface effects not possible in other materials because DURHAM’S sets up faster than clay and other materials.

Another advantage of using putty is that it lends itself to a combination of modeling and carving. Plus, DURHAM’S Water Putty offers exceptional durability.

"Here's a picture of my newest model railroad. The scenery was done exclusively with DURHAM'S over metal screen! Thanks for a great product!" – Rob Symington

What can you make? Interesting figures, birds, animals, abstract designs, and objects of any sort. How about reliefs, or scenic backgrounds for model railroading. Let your imagination run wild.

Form the Putty directly over a mount called an armature, or form it over supporting

material placed over an armature. Regardless, DURHAM’S Water Putty sticks and stays in position.

Finally, your sculpture may be left in the putty’s natural ivory tint, or colored. Return to top.
