So I got the sculpt molded and then cast it. Since it turn out well I really wanted to do something more with it other than paint and display another bust. So I decided to make a full size prop.

Using Wed Clay pt3
So using Wed clay is amazing. Its so smooth and soft right out of the box. Unlike that red oil clay that you have to cut up and knead the hell out of, the Wed clay starts out soft enough that it takes half the time to clay up.
Using Wed Clay
Here at Metal Water Studio we never stop learning and exploring new materials and methods. This year the new meterial so far is Wed Clay by Laguna.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with different types of clay there are two basic types of clay, water and oil based. Wed clay is a water based clay that has some more oil based clay properties. For example this clay is not sandy and crumbly like traditional water clays. Even though you cant just let it sit out and have to keep your sculpt wet, I like all the pros to this kind of water clay and will probably not be using oil clay much more.
And before I forget Wed clay is a fraction of the cost at about $20-25 for 50 lbs.
