Yes, another of what I'm sure is a long list of threads about how to sculpt better - I'm hoping some of the greats such as Howard or JRX (I'm sorry, I know there are many other great sculptors here - I'm fairly new round these parts and dont know most names yet) will chime in. First off - FINGERPRINTS. How to get rid of them. Not just fingerprints, but just anything that keeps the surface from being completely smooth - is there a method for getting rid of these with any ease? I heard some people say a spray bottle and some water - but I tried and it seemed to help very little. Is there something else to this technique? OK - next issue - HAIR. I'm sure everyone has their own way of doing this - but I cannot for the life of me make hair out of clay look remotely real. Facial or otherwise. Is it better to have a mostly solid block with some lines on top - or lost of lines and grooves? OK - last question - SKIN. What do you guys use for skin texture? How do you make the appearance of pores? And do you put pores on the entire face, or only in certain spots? I know, I know, very broad questions here, with many different answers - I'm just looking for some guidance to get started with. And if anyone else has questions on the subject, feel free to add them. Thanks in advance for anyone who responds.
