Playing with art supplies

Recently I've been experimenting with some new art supplies, thanks to art store gift cards I received this year. I found this really neat new line of sculpture materials from Crayola called Model Magic. It's weird stuff to work with. It is an air drying substance that is easy to mold and has the weight and feel of working with a large marshmallow, very strange indeed. I only tried it out once, but I am interested in seeing what can be done with this stuff. Right now, I kind of feel it is more for simple work, since it is difficult to do details in... but perhaps it just takes a bit of time to get used to the substance.
Here's a pic of a monster I made using it, below that is just a pic of my shelf since its been looking pretty colorful lately.
Happy New Years everyone!
