ok, I just found this video! Thanks for the information it helps a lot! I've only ever done one sculpt (years ago when I was a kid) and it turned out pretty well. I am getting back into working with clay to get my kids excited about it. Maybe I'll have something to post in the not too distant future!
Once again, thank you so much for the inspiration!
run from this recipe regular sculpey holds no details, it is pure garbage and a waste of your scultping time, in fact it's merely a Dollar to 1.50 less that super sculpey so you save yourself nothing. Instead take that cash and go to Michaels and use a 40 - 50 percent off coupon and get 2 super sculpeys or a sculpey firm, you'll be much better off than using this, though for super sculpey I'd add a sculpy III
Do you still upload videos? I would love to see more of your work. :) I have to say, your anatomy videos were a great help. However, I have a question: Were you using a brush or a pointed tool to create the line detail (the appearance of muscle fibers) on the muscles?
Hi I love your tutorial! Can you please tell me, if I want to make a PVC figure more muscular, can I apply a layer of Super Sculpey (flesh/skin toned) over the whole body of the figure and let it be without baking? I'm new in the craft please forgive me if it's a silly question. Thank you!
@DaggumGar - you have to bake polymer clay or else it would pick up every dirt and lint going and never be permanently hard. What you can us is cold porcelain - you can make it or buy it in Michaels and it never needs baking - it air dries.h
Well that makes sense. If one likes the softness of the mixture and is not making a final one of a kind piece, durability of the cured mix is not so much an issue. There are just soooo many people who will make a sculpture out of plain white sculpey and then sell it. When it breaks, and it will, it just adds to the public perception of Polymer clay as a junk medium or a kids toy. Fine though for molding and casting. Thanks for the clarification.
I find both plain white sculpey and sculpey III to be inferior in strength to super sculpey. adding that much of each of the other two will render the strength of the super sculpey ineffectual.
Like I mentioned before, it really come down to personal preference. It's the consistency of the texture and hardness of the clay I am looking for. Also it bakes hard enough for me to create my mold for eventual casting. Not for impact resistance.
Very cool vids - and some really cool tips - Thx
pasta cutter can blend colors a bit easier :]

Out of curiosity how much does this mixture cost you in total? Looks like something I might have to try out.

@daynox
I used 2 packs. Its really up to you to adjust the level of gray you are comfortable with. Try mixing in small parts increment.
