Why don't you add a touch of paint when you mix it?
I have never seen a 'colored' celluclay. It may exist, I have not run across it.

Hi Newms, Celluclay either comes in white or Gray and can be found in most hobby stores here In the States. I'm not sure about the United Kingdom. You can either add paint to it as you mix or wait till it dries and paint it. Its good stuff I use it all the time in my dios. Just make sure to add a little white glue to the mix to help it stick to your base.

Another thing you might want to try is mixing some clothing dye into it. In the US the brand name is RIT but I'm sure you could find it's equivilant in the UK.
It's cheaper than using paint.

yes i used brown DAS few times, its nice, but you need to paint it more anyway, so you can aswell use the white one, its the same price. DAS had one bad side, it "shrinks" a bit when dries, so make sure you add more on the side than you think you need :-)
