Sculpting
Oil-based clay, great for preserving details and smoothing. Can be melted and poured into existing molds. Stays soft so you can revise your master sculpts. You can freeze your molds for 30 minutes before demolding the master to preserve more details.
Similar to NSP Chavant, this is another oil-based clay, great for preserving details and smoothing. It can also be melted and poured into existing molds. Stays soft so you can revise your master sculpts. You can freeze your molds for 30 minutes before demolding the master to preserve more details.
Designed to be baked, this is a softer clay better suited to light details. It does not hold sharp lines as much, has a tendency to crack, but can be baked solid on metal sculpting platforms.
Even softer clay, not recommended for sculpting at all.
When sculpting, think about how many colors you want in the cap. When you're working on a detail that needs a distinct, separate color, you'll want to 'tuck' along all the connecting edges.
At the base of the detail, make sure there is a sharp indent where the detail connects to the main body. This will help retain the resin when placing a color in it. See the casting techniques page for more information on that.
