I just read up on it. it's the same stuff they use for claymation movies such as wallace and gromit.

You could use that Rob, but it might be messy and might not stay where it should until almost set. Give it a try though, but if you can get a stock of Plasticine/Plastilina for any future weight needs, it'll make things a lot easier. Here's a pic of some stuffed into place on my Boston, holding in place a lot of lead - bear in mind this is 1/48th scale.

Yep, they'll all work, although natural clay can have a detrimental effect on plastic, depending what's in it, and can turn to dust when dry. Milliput, that marvellous stuff, certainly doesa the job, but a relatively expensive way of doing it, and Playdo is fine, but a little more expensive than Plasticine.

Three clipped-wing Spits (L-R XIV, IX and XVI) at various stages... I had another couple on the go but I've put them back in the stash in semi-complete state - ya can take on too much...
