the problem with that method is the centre of the sculpt is still soft and sometimes just by holding the sculpt its own weight can cause it to shift cracking all the semi cooking surface area.
I would strongly recommend not to sue this method..
Ichunleo,
when using super sculptey most people build a stand that attaches to the wire armature, eliminating the need to hold the sculpt in the first place.
if you have to hold the sculpt, i suggest to block out your sculpt, fully bake it rock hard then add to the sculpt and bake areas as needed.
I would always bake over boil, you always get a much better result.
