Modena, I find, is a opaque clay, but it can be quite translucent depending on its thickness - usually at 2-5 mm thick.

I mix it with a Grace Clay to see how well it actually mix.

To my surprise, it does! Very well! totally love working with Modena clay! It doesn't stick to your hands too.

[Review] Modena Clay

Compare to the other clays I have used (ie: Daiso Clay, Grace...etc), Modena has the most workable texture. It work really well with my hands - doesn't stick to my hands. It works really well with making miniatures.

I like the the fact that it comes with a plastic wrap so that you can keep the clay's freshness when not in use.



Overall Rating:

PROS:
- Water proof after dry
- very EASY to work with
- mix very well with other clays
- works well with acrylic paint
-  pick up details very well

CONS:
- VERY PRICY! 1,050 (US$13.63) + shipment 
- not easy to purchase; I purchase mine from Japan =/


Hope you will like this review!!!

  1. Would love to see what the clay looks like once you make something. Clay always looks different as a finished product

  3. Oh my goodness!! This stuff is sooo hard to come by and since Decoden is such a growing trend over here the west it sucks we can't get the good stuff! I dunno if y'all have a Hobby Lobby but I wrote to mine and they gave my ideas to the person in charge of buying clay. I think if we can get enough people to demand their craft stores to buy this stuff we'd be super happy! :)
