You can see that is has a significant amount of missing gesso appliques. When I bought it there was a baggie of pieces that had fallen off. When I got home I washed the frame with a toothbrush and water and glued the pieces back on.
I needed an intact corner piece to replace the one that was mostly gone. One of them was almost complete so I made up some of my Amazing Mold Putty and applied it. I also made some casts of trim.
It looks really good. I added the parts that were missing and touched up the missing trim.
It is taking longer to dry than the Paper Clay that I used before. The store was out of Paper Clay so I had to get something else. It is taking longer to dry and I hope it sticks as well. It's called Super Dough.
When this is dry I will seal the clay and paint it.

Please! What is the recipe for your amazing mold putty?
Thought that might make you sit up and take notice, what with all the plaster you have to replicate! Here is a link to my first frame post: http://hauserhaus.blogspot.com/2007/09/frame-up.html.
