Sculpting with Air Dry Clay: Tips and Materials

Sculpting a “Potplant Creature“ in AIR DRYING CLAY. For this project I will be using AIR DRY clay as my primary medium, build around a ALUMINUM armature. After sculpting, the clay need to air dry for 4-5 days before its ready for painting. It DOES NOT need to be fired or molded. MATERIALS and TOOLS used, and where you can get them: AIR DRY CLAY: in this video I used PEBEO air dry clay Though, per 2022 my new favorite is DAS which you cant find here: ) ARMATURE: Aluminium Mire (gauge 10 / diameter) - Aluminium Wire (gauge 6 / diameter) - Aluminium Wire Mesh - PLYERS STEEL KNEAD IT - (Or other epoxy putty - eg. ) WOODEN BASE BALL BEARINGS (or marbles) - for eyes (eg. ) Variety of SCULPTING TOOLS, eg: Stainless Steel Sculpting Tools - Loop Tools - Silicone tip / dotting tools - The above product links are affiliated - that means if you purchase anything via one of these links, Amazon will pay me a small commission. It won’t cost you anything extra but it’s a huge help for me and my channel :) I’ll only ever provide links to products I use myself and can stand by.
