Question 1

Is it same as gesso?

Accepted Answer

Hi there,
 
Modeling paste is designed for creating textured backgrounds, building layers behind paint (you can add more layers once the paste is dry before painting), and 3D multi-media artwork (you can embed objects in the paste).
 
So, no it is not the same as gesso.
 
If you are looking for gesso, we do offer a larger-sized gesso [https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00YPC9YYC?ref=myi_title_dp],  a clear texture gesso [https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07LCDY2NC?ref=myi_title_dp], and also a white texture gesso [https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07LCCJGWD?ref=myi_title_dp].
 
Let us know if you have any more questions!

Question 2

How long does it takes to get dried?

Accepted Answer

It does not take very long but I like to leave it a couple hours to get good and dry before applying paint...

Question 3

Does this dry more than your impasto medium? Im trying to build consistently heavy textured relief painting with 1-2in of thickness and want the depth

Accepted Answer

Hi there,
 
Our Impasto is designed to help thicken paint and retain brushstrokes. It can also be used as a paint extender. It tends to dry relatively flexible.
 
Modeling Paste is ideal for building up layers as it dries hard. To achieve the thickness you are after we’d suggest building it up in consecutive layers, at least four layers, allowing each to dry before applying the next. This is to help prevent cracking as modeling paste may crack if applied too thickly all at once. You can use a hair dryer to speed up the drying process of the first three layers. We recommend allowing the last layer to dry naturally to minimise the chance of any cracks forming in the final layer.
 
Hope this helps.
