Custom number three. This was my first time using apoxie sculpt and I have to say this stuff is fantastic. Easy to carve and file plus it holds edges really well and doesn't chip like other putties.

I gave it a bath of alcohol overnight then polished the hell out of it with Finishers compound.
Note don't leave it in the alcohol for more than a day or you'll destroy clear plastic.

Hey dude, your work looks promising as usual...

I gave it a bath of alcohol overnight then polished the hell out of it with Finishers compound.
Note don't leave it in the alcohol for more than a day or you'll destroy clear plastic.

just a few questions:
-is that finishing set better than the Mr Hobby or tamiya polishing products?
-which particular brand of alcohol do you use (isoproyl/isocol/rubbing alcohol/nail polish remover etc....) and what concentrations do you recommend??
