This transparent PMMA plastic textured roller is the perfect tool for adding detailed surfaces to a wide variety of modeling materials such as putties, polymer clays, and sculpting pastes. Featuring a pattern of differently sized bricks (from 1.5 x 1.5 mm to 1.5 x 4 mm), it creates realistic textures suitable for scales like 1/144, 1/100, or 1/72 (12-15-20 mm). Durable, non-toxic, and non-stick, it measures 14.5 cm in length and 2.5 cm in diameter, providing excellent control and comfort during use.
Begin by properly kneading your clay or putty according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Spread the material evenly over the desired surface, ideally smoothing it with a flat roller before texturing. Roll this tool slowly and steadily with consistent pressure to achieve a uniform impression. Depending on the type of material, you may need to moisten the roller slightly to prevent sticking. It works well with polymer clays like Fimo and Super Sculpey, epoxy putties such as Green Stuff or Milliput, and other modeling compounds.
Polymer clays can be baked directly on MDF bases, which offer a stable surface for curing at 150°C for 15 minutes. Epoxy putties, which harden without baking, can be used directly on plastic or other surfaces. For sticky materials like Green Stuff, lightly wetting the roller or applying talc or modeling vaseline will help avoid sticking. After use, clean the roller with warm water and a soft brush to preserve its engraving. This tool should be used under adult supervision when handled by children. A must-have accessory for miniature creators seeking varied and realistic textures for bases, walls, or terrain features.
