Emulsion with white cement
White cement is an inexpensive material to stack up height. The feel of the mixture is not much different from emulsion , except that is is quick drying which means I need to work fast.
After drying the surface looks fine , except it is brittle and breaks like classroom chalk when bend.

Ren3 ( Endure )
The word Ren3 ( Endure ) , consist of the Dao1 ( knife ) on top and Xing1 ( heart ) at the bottom. Endure the knife in the heart. This word is normally written in calligraphy boldly or strongly to reflect its meaning. However for this one , I have soften or weaken the knife because if a person who practiced endurance his heart eventually become stronger than the knife.

Emulsion with Corn Starch
Heat corn starch and water on a stove until a gel-like mass is formed.
Use a knife to mix 50% emulsion with the 50% corn starch. I sure like the texture and feeling of the mixture with the knife.
It is more lumpy if the corn starch is mixed when it is cooled.
cracks appear the next day. The surface feel soft and rubbery.
More cracks appear after a week of drying. The surface feels very hard.
