Summary: Winterstone, cement for sculpture, fish fossil

However! There is hope!

There's a product called Winterstone that seems to work well. It's a cement-based polymer mix. Just add water... the result is a pure white creamy putty. Not quite as stiff as clay when wet, takes an impression really well, and dries to be as hard as concrete!

So, I made a new fish fossil with Winterstone. [sketch] 11x14 inches, white Winterstone cement.

I'm not sure if this is a test or my first real fossil sculpture -- depends on whether it works out! I'll post a photo A.S.A.P. once it's cured somewhat.
