What kind of clay is that? Only reason i ask is if its not a treated clay pr oil based you have have some "shrinkage issues" once dryed.

 

[Durasteel Corporation]

Its ain oil based clay.... no shrinkage.

Van Aken is the brand. I enjoy it as it is easy to work with....though it will hold a sharp edge, its not the best thing for carving in minute detail but idea for roughing out shapes which is why I hybridize things like this with metal or wood, machined, forged etc.

I will also freeze the mannequin to harden the clay for the edgework and slots, holes etc. A little tip I found when pouring clay into molds....you can freeze it to capture and modify the clay

I'm very intrested to see how this comes out, i'm gearing up to try my hand at makeing a sith trooper armor from K.O.T.O.R. but i want to use magic sculpt, instead of clay i wonder if this would be a bad move? even tho i see it as a good one.
