puttylike
Like modeling clay
Puttylike describes something with the consistency or qualities of putty—soft, malleable, easily shaped.
A puttylike substance yields to pressure and holds whatever form it's given: The clay had a puttylike texture.
The word suggests pliability without stickiness, something workable that stays in place once molded.
