What Clay Is Best For Scuplting?

[Slater]

I am not sure, but did you mention what type of oil based clay you are using?
I am assuming it is either roma plastilina or monster makers. You should mention what one. The members here can suggest many methods of smoothing the clay.

If Roma:
I used 90% alcohol and a stencil brush, use 99% if you can find it. It will "melt" the clay and leave it very smooth. Also, prior to that, use rake tools to knock down any larger bumps.

I like to chime in and act like I know what I am talking about  :lol: :thumbsup:  :thumbsup:  :thumbsup:

I prefer oil based. If you\'re having trouble smoothing you might want to look into a stronger solvent.

it\'s harder to smooth than roma IMO
and it is debatable what is the best solvent to smooth it with.

I like monster makers clay but like gary said it\'s very hard to smooth out and gets annoying.

im gonna give Chavant NSP Soft clay a try.. anyone ever use it?

[Hauntmaster9 ●]

I like chavant, I sampled soft in the store but I haven\'t really used any yet. I use medium but it gets a bit hard on the hands after a while. I\'ll probably be getting some soft next.
