Thank you so much for your reply and this thread...
it is amazing how different super sculpey is when cooked properly; it has been much easier to carve.
i have also recently purchased a heat gun, which has done wonders for me in seperating pieces/joints and working on things seperately.
i would really like to make molds to help save my progress (i have a tendancy to re-work good work
) and i am going to purchase the elastosil you suggested.
Thanks again,
sam
