Not that I'm planning to do this, but I didn't know they made sculpey that's flexible after it's baked. Does it work on head molds? Has anyone done that before?

I use it for tails and other bendable stuff. You can mold it around a wire so it can be bent to hold a pose.
Tbolt, can this be used for Mego "hands" that could grip?
Hardygirl, what's that material called? Is the name of it bendable sculpey?

Samples of my work are found here: Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness
To do list:
1:6 boots for Mathilda, 1:1 Romulan Commander outfit, Ursus helmet; Cornelius appliance
1:9 scale ape's new suit for Cornelius;
I've seen it listed as Sculpy Superflex or Sculpy Bake-n-Bend. The only thing that irks me about it is that around here, you have to buy it as a multi-pack with 7 basic colors, and not a single block of one color, like the regular Sculpy.
You could use it for bendy hands, but have fun getting those wires into the tiny parts. Once you get the hang of that, it would be pretty cool.

I got some as a donation to my classroom. It's Bake & Bend and in a multi-pack, unopened. I was just thinking that maybe I'd keep it for myself.![]()

>Was it squishy like foam, or was it more rubbery?
Like soft rubber. The Space Glider helmets have a tendency to crack, so I wanted soft ones. I'd heard that the very first release of the figures in japan had colour co-ordinated helmets, and wanted some of that, too.
>What kind of paint/dye did you use?
Smooth-On sells plastic dye. They had the stuff I used. It's a huge pain to use though: gets everywhere if you're not careful. Plus, you get a fair amount of the stuff, and use incredibly small amounts. (I haven't tested mine to see if they're still good or not.)
>I need some stuff for some 12" scale flexible headgear.
Might work. I forced it into molds when I used it. (For squishy helmets, hands and a few Mego heads.) It's kinda thick; maybe like runny jam, so you'd need some sort of pressure system to get it to fill the small/pointy/thin parts.
