Gotta Be A Better Way ? - caidenzakk - 12-11-2008

Can anyone tell me if there is a better (easier) way to cover the armiture with clay before the sculpting process begins ??? I havent even begun to sculpt and already both of my thumbs are blistered from spreading the clay with my thumbs, thanks in advance. If this is a stupid question......Im sorry.

In the Mark Alfrey video sculpting video he make big flat pieces by smushing them with his hands so that they will cover a larger surface are then he applys it to the armature.Hope this helps!
