So my brother recently got into Warhammer 40k (after several years of me suggesting it) and he wanted me to make all of his miniatures. No big deal, right? Well he also is a fan of the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. He wants his space marines army to be in pony form. I figure that it won't be too hard, just a bit of changeing stuff around, but my big question is: What type of modeling compound can you use on plastic miniatures? I am unfamiliar with this branch of the hobby, so any other suggestions would be appreciated! Thanks, geekchris (sorry for the not-quite-TTRPG related post here, I just felt that you guys and gals are the most knowledgeable people I know about this type of stuff) Update: I got a reference picture of what I'm trying to accomplish What I'm trying to accomplish:

I use Magic Sculpt. It's not the only thing that works, but it's reasonably well-behaved (it more or less acts like clay), doesn't smell funny, and is available at reasonable prices (comparable to FIMO). Use mineral oil on your tools. It sticks to plastic: P1000954 by kitchen_wolf, on Flickr

You can also use Green Stuff, ProCreate, or Milput to add things to plastic minis. All are forms of epoxy putty.
