Chroma Clay - Purple

Plasticine for Creative Animation

Chroma Clay Purple is a vibrant, studio-quality plasticine designed for animators who need a punchy, high-saturation palette. Developed as a premium alternative to Newplast, this Purple pigment is formulated to remain bright and distinctive even under the intense lighting of a professional animation set. It is the perfect choice for stylised character costumes, magical environmental elements, and bold creature designs that require a "pop" of theatrical colour.

Precision Formulation for Studio Stability

Handmade in the UK using animator-approved materials, our wax-based formula is designed to perform predictably from the first frame to the last:

• Exceptional Surface Integrity: Specifically made to hold intricate details and crisp character movement between exposures.

• Responsive Thermal Handling: Softens quickly with the warmth of your hands for fluid, expressive movement, but retains enough firmness to ensure your puppet stays exactly where you pose it on the armature.

• Non-Drying Reliability: As a permanently pliable modelling material, it allows for weeks of refinement, making it ideal for both complex professional productions and long-term educational projects.

Advanced Casting and Bespoke Mixing

The fully meltable nature of Chroma Clay Purple makes it a powerhouse for production pipelines. Pour the melted clay into silicone moulds to create consistent replacement animation parts or repeatable character components. For those seeking custom tones, Purple is an excellent mixing base; blend it with Chroma Clay White for vibrant lilacs or Chroma Clay Cerise for high-energy magentas.
