yeah so anywhos im trying to build something, a BIG something, as in like 9 feet tall. I prefer it to be made out of some skin- like feeling matter. ya know like soft plastics i guess that can be tugged on after it sets but not snap... nothing hard.

does this make any sense?!?!so what im getting at here is what can i use that isnt totally liquid but isnt clay to make a huge scultpure??? i need it to be malleable as im creating it yet hold form for when it dries...

help!!!

pinyata style? or latex but that is liquid so you would have to cover the skeleton with cloth or plastic! what do have in mind

well, more latex like i suppose... but yes that wouldnt hold shape without a mold. and a mold would be difficult to do due to its great proportions and besides it going to be a very "organic" sculpture so it would be difficult to make a mold with all the bumps and shapes and textures i need.

how do they make realistic skin dildos??? i want that kind of feeling stuff i guess... skin- like... but 9 foot tall....
