    Anyone know what material this guy is using to make these branches?

    I feel like I may have made a thread like this before over a year ago LOL. But does anyone know what kind of "epoxy" material this guy uses to plaster on to make these branches? It looks so fun to use!

    I can't figure out what sort of epoxy this is. All I can find is epoxy putty (which doesn't really look like what he is using, unless there's a way to mix and make it thinner to use as this plastery stuff) and epoxy resin LOL.

    It says in the info below the video it's an epoxy and has a link. I'd post the link but don't know how, sorry. I'm gonna check it out when I get home though. Looks pretty cool.

    is the epoxy applied to actual branches in that vid or a wire frame? anyway it could be sculpting expoxy like this: https://www.smooth-on.com/product-line/free-form-sculpt Piedlove79 uses sculpting epoxy resin over a wired frame for alotta her art projects.

    or it could be wood filler epoxy like these?

    i'm not sure how those could create free-er form shapes tho. i've only used it as nail fillers or gaps and trim/molding.

    I actually just found out it is something called zoopoxy! I had asked in a GTP group and someone found it.

    Here's the website: http://www.polygem.com/products/zoopoxy

    It looks like their "Sculpting" product is what you want.
