Adding details should be the last thing you do. Get all the shapes where you want them first, and then start adding wrinkles and details.
Using Monster Makers Clay, you\'re gonna want to be using your "cleaning tools" if you have them. Those are the ones with the metal loop at the end. Sure, they are great for digging and making lines, but lighty drag them across the surface of the clay and see how they kinda "peel" the clay, leaving a nice smooth area.
When it comes to smoothing it out at the end, don\'t even bother with water or alcohol. It has about the same effect as throwing water on a rock to try and smooth it out. I personally use lighter fluid (the kind you\'d fill a zippo lighter with). Very dangerous, and I accept no responsibility if you try it (i.e. - I\'m saying that\'s what "I" do, not that\'s what YOU should do). It works though.
I was going to say that, but it was too much to type..thanks aaron

yeah consider what you are doing as practice, build the form of the head before you detail.. don\'t be afraid to do the teeth, then start over, then do them again then start over again,then start over, then do them again then start over, then do them again then start over, then do them again then start over, then do them again then start over, then do them again then start over, then do them again then start over, then do them again then start over, then do them again then do them they way you want, then start over again just for the hell of it..then you can tell people it is your first sculpture even though you did 400 teeth, 242 eyes, 198 ears, 72 noses, etc...
that\'s what I did Wink (although my first mask didn\'t have a nose or eyes)
