Surface Forms

greenstuff singular
greenstuffs plural

Morphology

greenstuff = green + stuff (opaque) = green + stuff

Although transparently formed from 'green' + 'stuff', this sense names a specific modelling epoxy product or brand, so the precise meaning cannot be derived from the components.

Etymology

Greenstuff comes from the simple words green and stuff: 'green' for its colour and 'stuff' for a soft material you can shape, like a putty hobbyists mix and use. So, greenstuff means the two-part green epoxy putty used to fill and sculpt models.
