Playdoh is just another modeling clay.  It would probably work fine for making the initial model.  Just don't try loading it with BP! :o

Dolphin looks great Gary!  Now you just need the weather to warm up a bit so you can do some casting!

Yea ,
it's snowed for two days straight FYI I dont intend to do any casting B4 spring . This winter we havent got our usual break in the weather .

Fortunatly there is 'winter work' in this casting hobby . I'll get this gun done and move on to the next thing .

For me, spring should only be a few weeks away.  Unfortunately, that means summer comes sooner too...ah the humility humidity! :'(
