    Bondo on snake hide?
    I recently made my own snake hide out of the dough/salt clay that I've read other make their hides from. I am letting it dry for a few days before I put a waterproof sealer non toxic paint on it. I'm wondering if I can use bondo to reinforce it and add some contours to the hide before painting or is it a definite no no??

    I've been wondering about things like this too. I have been wanting to build my BP a hide out of craft clay for a while now, but I haven't gotten very many answers about it.

    PS: what's this dough/salt clay you used? is there a recipe for it?

    Iv also seen people, While putting the sealent/bond on it, add Texture with the substrate they use (usually Coco Husk fibers) Makes them look extremely good!

    this is the recipe I used a little less flour and a little more salt bc I noticed some recipes call for twice the amount of salt as flour, I don't think it needs to be so specific
