✨Easily SCULPT MANE HAIR on a plastic model horse with epoxy putty & armatures

How I sculpt mane hair with epoxy putty (the brand I’m using here is Milliput) on a plastic model horse, step-by-step, including how I build a simple, budget-friendly support armature for loose, free-flowing hair. Links to tools and supplies below! This video is demonstrated on an altered 1/9 scale Breyer horse from the "Traditional" line and will work on artist resin casted sculptures, Peter Stone, Schleich, and CollectA brands of model horse with a little practice.
