Yeah I've worked with the paperclay before and I usually have a thing with water with me when working with it. So I'll probably just get that as its easier to store than model magic too. Just this time, not be an idiot and make sure its actually airtight afterwards as I didn't quite get it tight enough sealed and forgot about it and then years later was all "...oh maaaan T_T" as I had like half a package still left even. *laments*
Yeah, I went ahead and trimmed off some. 'Cause it was just an issue of like the piece looked a lot smaller when I was working on it on the floor and then when I put it on me, realized how much bigger it was than what I thought. XP And wanted to make sure if others felt the same way or if it was just me. lol
Hmm, that's very true about the matching thing, didn't think about that. I just wasn't sure if the pleather would look a bit tacky or not as it worked great for the bias tape but I wasn't sure on the rest since sateen stitching may be a bit weird and I hate leaving fabric edges untouched. And in the past gluing pleather down didn't go so well but probably wasn't using a strong enough glue (I do have e6000 these days). Though on the foamies front, do you know whats good to seal with them with as I have not found anything that works that great from my own experience and I'm a bit bawfled by how people get them to work so well for them but mine always crack. XP
