Welcome, Susie. We have a couple folks on the list who work with
Darjit or custom formulations of PC for sculpting. Hopefully one of
them can get back to you shortly. I do some sculpting with PC, but I
am not covering anything since the PC can be cast and molded so easily
and comes out so light. The sources I can think of for inexpensive
mesh would be aluminum window screen (which I think would work well)
and plastic window screen (not so well). There are several other
thicker meshes that can be purchased in steel and other materials,
depending on how much Darjit (or other material) you need to support.
I am thinking that the material would be pretty much self supporting
after it is set.
