I'd never heard of using alcohol to "thin down" milliput before. That's such a cool idea!

[luppchri]

I just saw your video 4 years after its release but it still is a fantastic help for anyone into miniatures and 3d prints. Thanks so much for these great tips!

[Matthew_Dubroq]

Dude, I've been building models for 20yrs, and I've never seen this before, awesome vid and a great

[KennethNicholson]

Here is another tip for you all that I use often. You can mix your milliput 50/50 with childrens plasticene to make a more flexible putty when it hardens. This greatly reduces costs when sculpting many figures. I use this mix to bulk up my wire skeletons before doing the sculpting proper.

I was going to say that the best part of the video is the ISO/Meths trick. But actually the best part of this video is your accent. It's awesome.

[GoobertownHobbies]

I'm finally gonna give this a try today, I'm excited! Thanks for the tip broski

[flickpad]

I've been using Milliput for over twenty years and I never knew you could do that. Brilliant tip

[mykyzer]

Great tip will be using it on my necron warriors. Goodbye to those terrible gaps on their shoulders! Thanks for probably the most useful sculpt tip in 20 years

It's called Milliput Juice. Back in the days of metal-miniatures it was used to smooth out the rather rough surfaces.
Milliput ist great because it reacts different to water than Greenstuff. Milliput tends to get kinda creamy.

Thanks for the video. Good reminder that Milliput is perfect tool for filling those little gap.

[JaiPritchett]

THANKS HEAPS MATE! SO USEFUL!
My local store was out of liquid green stuff and I needed to get heaps of gaps filled so grabbed a box
That tips has been perfect!

[gingerfeliciano]

WOW ive been using miliput for years and this is the first time im.hesring of this technique! Its exactly what i needed thank you so much

[TheStuffedIguana]

Okay. Saw this a few months ago and it has been invaluable. It's a great video! BUT one thing that is worth adding is that the exact same method is amazing for getting a smooth surface for areas that you have sculpted.

So, if you have a rough area with a few errant tool marks - don't panic, do your best. Then let it dry and essentially give it a wash using the exact same metho posed. And much like a glaze or wash, it will run into the various cracks and divets that are on the model, making a nice smooth area.

I may or may not have first tried this whilst trying to get a witch elf bum looking smooth....

[philgee]

Such a stunning secret Marco!
Probably the most help I've gotten for sculpting, it's exactly what I'd hoped liquid greenstuff would be but never was.

Stopped using milliput years ago because there were other options without the chalkiness. This option removes that issue, gives infinite adjustment and the ability to add particles to a "cream" for rust and surface texture effects. Superb for adding raised damage effects on bullet/shell hits, building up noses and cheekbones for restoring poorly cast facial details. With my first mix I added bigger pects and six pack abs to a unit of feral orcs, fixed the hair texture on two models as a proof of technique, added bullet hits and rusted up a trio of gaslands cars and a tanker, painted it onto a wire armature I'd made for wings for an android sculpt project, pasted it onto an archway to make the stonework relief and add some runes for OSL, added bark and roots to two creepy twisted trees made of wire, filled some really disgusting gaps on some wolves I bought years ago, turned a tub of random beads into clusters of alien eggs some creepy hanging egg sacks and with the last of the mix textured a handful of bases.
Next time I'll mix less...
Next job add distinguishing features and detail to my mass of Deep Madness dupe sculpts that I reposed with hot water and then add damage and details to my collection of scifi doors.
I can finally put a new arm/hand/spell on that ridiculous medusa from black rose wars
Filling cream and detail paste from Milliput - who'd have guessed?
Plus I do love the smell of isopropyl, I was a lab chemist years ago, exiled to the solvent lab a couple of days a week, now if only you could find a hobby excuse for using diethyl ether...
Wonder what it does to magisculp?
Great work Marco, just like with your oil paint washes, you're out there experimenting and developing practical techniques for us and then demonstrating them clearly. Great inspiration but more then that it's practical help.

[LindaBarham]

You've taught me so much! Thank you. I'm a reseller and because of you I've been able to repair chipped and cracked ceramic. I even fixed a canister that had a hole in it that was textured. You couldn't even tell there was a repair.

[jasongould]

I've used Milliput countless times, I had no idea that you could use it as a filler paste!
Great video, thanks for sharing.

Jas.

[taco]

I have to admit. I have used Milliput, green stuff you name it. Seen tons of videos about Milliput and no one and i mean NO ONE has taught me anything besides you with the alcohol trick. that is pure genius!

[Troll]

I've been struggeling with my Tyranids all night yesterday to fill the gaps and didnt even get through one large model in 2 hours. So I went out and looked for videos. So glad I found this. Will be trying it tonight :-)

[redhotswing]

Just tried this technique for the first time, and it worked like a charm. Thanks, Marco!

ps - my little kid is now going around the house saying meeleepoot on repeat 🤣

[Edrad_]

Incredible. I can't believe I haven't seen this trick before. I'm so glad I went trudging through your older videos and found this.

[nekoali]

In all my years crafting and modeling, I've never heard of this trick before, this is a game changer...
