    A bit of advice for helping with stickiness while kneading; the vaseline also helps, but so does a little bit of extra cornstarch on your work surface, or added as required until it quits gumming up. Just like making bread dough for those of you who've ever done that.

      Hey Zak and Scotty need some tips on the recipe. My first batch was a complete failure. The difference is I used olive oil instead of baby oil. Could never get it past the sticky phase. The more lotion I added the sticker it got. I spent almost 45 minutes in the kneading phase until I just had to call it quits. Just completed my second attempt after watching a couple other TH-camrs. One stated that Baby Oil is the catalyst ingredient needed to get it to work its magic while another stated to add additional cornstarch to make it less sticky (only add little bits at a time. This go round it took me 1.5 hrs to finally get to the end product. So, for me, I ended up adding almost another full cup of cornstarch to finally get it to the clumpy stage. Then began using the lotion and it only made it get sticker and sticker. I switched over to baby oil on my hands. As soon as I did this the stickiness reduced by about 90%. I did another dusting of corn starch and redid my hands with the baby oil and only then did all the stickiness go away and it finally turned into the product shown in the video. Are you sure the recipe calls for only 1 cup of corn starch? Maybe is should be updated to 2 cups? If you guys got it to work with one, then it has to do with my microwave cooking time or that I live in the Southwest and it has something to do with elevation, dryness of the air, or who knows what. I'd be thankful for any other tips you may have that you did while making but thought they may not be important to share at the time of making the vid. Scotty, love, love, love all the dedication you put into your channel and the craft! A place I visit multiple times a week. Never stop!

    • @theDMsCraft
      @theDMsCraft  6 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Thanks for the detailed account. I have seen recipes with two cups of cornstarch but then they use twice the oil and vinegar. I am thinking maybe you are not cooking long enough...As you state many factors can change the cook such as microwave wattage and weather. I had a batch that was undercooked and suffered the same super sticky problem. Also be careful with the baby oil as you do not want the final product too oily.

    Baby oil is just scented mineral oil, you can find unscented in the laxative aisle. Also, if it cracks while drying, add more oil. This clay can be worked very thin, (I make flower petals with it) and you can get very realistic results coloring it with chalk pastels.

    I made this (your recipe) a year ago and it is perfect. I never had any issues, it dries nice and hard, easy to work with, takes color great. I made a tiny carrot, but didn't think to color the clay before. I took an orange sharpie, it was a bit dark, so I wiped it off a bit then made some small brown lines. I rubbed the brown quick and it made them look so real. I used a green marker, not a sharpie, and wow I have to say, I was so impressed. It lasted for at least 9 months, probably would have lasted longer, but I used all of it. So to all of you watching this and wondering if it really works, YES IT DOES. The only one I use. Thank you so much for sharing. 😉

    hiya! another tip for this clay: you can actually add color using some oil paint (oil is better than acrylic since is oil-based instead of water). if you don't want the translucid effect on it you can add some white paint and then boom you have white clay :) or you can also add pigment powder (some people prefer this one). I love this clay, I'm from Brazil and there the amount of people who craft with this clay is HUGE (we call it "biscuit" while other countries of latin america call it "porcelana fria") the community is so big, they do crazy stuff with this clay :)).

I can't wait to see what I can do with this. It's been years since I did anything like this due to seizures. Trying to come up with what to do with this.

      How fast do you work, and in what scale? Making 28 mm minis requires something that doesn't air dry for me. I love cold porcelain for the big stuff (I can see why Scotty would make a purple worm out of it), but my little guys need something that doesn't harden up soon as I work slowly, take breaks, and sometimes life interrupts sculpting.

    • @RollforDamageRFD
      @RollforDamageRFD 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Zak Hoskins 28-30mm. My first were about a head taller than than they should have been. You can work pretty fast and still get an amazing product as well keeping a cup of water with a paint brush to ensure the piece doesn’t fully dry until your ready. Also I tend to build the heads separately and glue them on. Maybe not the best yet but I’m still learning too.

  • @JustFeelingsCrafts
    @JustFeelingsCrafts 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Hi, you can make a flexible version (when it dries has flexibility) by changing the glue. this is particularly important if you have very thin parts in your sculpture (hair, hands, for example) because the flexibility will avoid the piece to break. But if you have a thick piece, the regular glue works perfectly. I also prefer to use glycerin and stearin instead of the body lotion, and sodium benzoate instead of the vinegar

    tips after failing 3 times: 1. make sure you are using the correct glue GLUE-ALL, not school glue. 2. as stated by others, use corn starch to aid in reducing the stickiness, the baby oil works too. 3. if, like me, you accidentally overcook your clay (it will be rubbery and hard), use the same technique for softening normal clay: poke holes into but not all the way through, the let soak in a small amount of water for about 2-4 days. i checked my failed clay after two days of soaking, it went from breaking completely to attempting to do the clay test shown in the video. after 3.5 days the clay now completes the pull apart test! the last step is to work the clay in a technique called wedge. watch videos to replicate. Your over cooked or hardened clay is now ready to use again! ( i am hoping as i haven't actually used it yet, but it passed the test at least).

    Hi there. I have a batch of this sitting in my work area but it seems slightly too soft. If I add a little cornstarch to it, does it need to sit another day before I can use it? Or should I chuck it and start over?

  • @Carpetcleanerman
    @Carpetcleanerman 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thank you Scotty. That is some mighty advice and fantastic way to make your own clay! One question though, how long can work the material before it gets hard? And given thaf you store it in cling film and sealable bag, how long does it last in a container? Thank you!

    • @theDMsCraft
      @theDMsCraft  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      About a half hour, store any you are not using in the bag.

  • @carolynjohnson9789
    @carolynjohnson9789 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Suggestions: Use the same oil on your hands to knead. Measure oil and put in measuring cup before you pour in glue, glue will come right out without sticking. Use corn starch on board to knead on, less sticking.

  • @zickiezickie

    Hi Scotty, Just finished my first batch. Man, What a sticky mess. I stuck with it until I got to the loaf. I have a few questions. Mine never was lumpy. It was smooth and super sticky all the way through. With the lotion, I managed to knead it with my hands, but resorted to a spatula eventually. Finally got it into a loaf, but it was still very soft and sticky. I thought I followed the measurements exactly, but something went wrong. I just now put into a bag and container. Should I have added more cornstarch to firm it up before I put it away? Is it too late?

    I think I had a fail...I did a half batch...after the first 15 sec cook it was a ball and rubbery. No sticky...where did I go wrong? I used high...30 second cook twice...then 15 second cook and it is like play dough...rubbery. Almost like...too dry. I will keep adding lotion and kneading to see it that helps....
    Any suggestions?

    • @theDMsCraft
      @theDMsCraft  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It sounds overcooked. Different microwaves have different power settings. Try getting the clay damp and seal for a day then try to work it.

    • @theDMsCraft

    Add a small amount of water to the surface of your sculped piece to get rid of fingerprints and smooth it out. I just dip my fingers in water and rub it on. I use cold porcelain more than any other clay. It's amazing.

  • @Primal2229
    @Primal2229 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Kind of a bonus and downside at the same time with this stuff is that since its cornstarch and glue, any left over bits or projects that failed can be left in water over night then added back to the wad... or just put the hard piece in the wad itself. Just avoid using that for a few days and work at it to help break it back down. Also if it starts to dry out add water. Ive had the same batch for 6 months now in an rubbermaid container at room temp. No mold, no funky smell, and whenever it'd start to dry id just work some water into it and it'd be back to day one workable.
    Side note: ground up charcoal dust mixed into the clay helps it dry faster as well as add some pigment. Also it works great when combined with foam "air" (foam) clay at 1-1 ratios. Lighter and better for filler on larger projects. Its a bit more resilient than some of the crafting channels will admit.
