Wondering how to effectively use Greenstuff to fill a gap on my horse. I assume its easy but don't want to go higgily piggily. And it isn't liquid, just normal. I already have a tutorial on how to make replicas of items for soldiers missing pieces, so this is all. And you can shape the stuff with your hands right? On a side note, how do you glue plastic to finecast- such as a plastic horse to a metal Theodred. Super, plastic, both?

Super glue. Never use plastic glue on finecast or anything other than plastic with plastic because it won't work properly

Green stuff is simple to use, you just put it where you want it. Just make sure you start off with a small amount (I'm talking the size of a mini's head should do one horse).

I use thin stripes of Green Stuff to fill gaps in horses and Wargs, and a toothpick to shape it. But I try to make the stripes as thin as possible, so they are level with the rest of the model.

Keeping the tool you're using to fill the gap wet can help- Greenstuff is quite sticky and sometimes you can find it sticking to you, but not the model! Usually though, if you're filling a big gap, you have enough surface area contacting the greenstuff for it to adhere to the model and not your tool/you!
