i used to be interested in clay since i was in kindergarden... coz that time my place banjir and my parents buy alot alot of plasitine to sumbat some places in my house then i hairan go and take and make some shapes.... but not now... dun have plasitine to play around.. sad..

Well paper clay is much better. Much cleaner to play with. Just my 2 cents.

Paper clay are good choice, but I'm not comfortable with the "fast dry out" fallback. Plasitine is cheaper choice, but too soft and YES .. very dirty !

Well if you notice on my blog, I'm actually using a type of eraser as material.

PROs:
- No oil
- Reusable
- Easy to shape

CONs:
- a little smelly (less smell than plasitine)
- softer than real clay, don't get hard/solid
- only 1 color available (grey)

It cost me only RM2.00 per piece, 2 pieces are already enough to make something ... but in quantity it can be costly .

For my opinion, it can replace putty in some condition!

lolz! i used the exact same thing earlier this year.. hahaha. i made a little elephant. (:

no photos right now cause i gave it away as a bday prezzie.. >_<

i actually bought the art eraser to actually erase stuff.. but then i found i could mould and shape it.. haha.. i gave away two erasers already.. >_<

you should change the title.. its no longer clay modeling. its eraser modeling.. haha.. (:

Ohh you really used them to create gift? Haha it's a greate idea, may be I should change it ... hey admin may I?

the eraser is really good for erasing yikes ! and its much firmer than plasistine. used to play with plasistine when i was young, but the smell can kill :lol

This lil piece of eraser is my lifesaver during my college days. I was in advertising and graphic design, and figure drawing classes is HELL!

Ahh... miss feeling the warm lil putty in my palm.

I agree with the "smell thing", yaks ...

Haha ... same here, even my lecturer caught me playing it in the class (P.s: I'm studying IT course, so my lecturer have no knowledge of the little piece of shit in my hand ... ). The only thing that troubles me is ... it mix with all my stationary and stick on them!

i used..rubber dust leftovers to make a large bouncy ball once..i think i gave it away

rubber dust is:

easy to get
squishy
does not stick to other object besides rubber
not that smelly
when hard, it's bouncy

Hmm rubber dust is such a good idea too

wow, you r really good in clay modelling. u r studying in modelling or working just for fun of it? keep on your work. Nice models.

Thanks, well for your information I just work it for fun in my free times! I'm in programming field!

Thanks again!

Recently got some polymer clay myself. Gonna start on some sculpting, wondering if anyone did it before. We could start a discussion!!

Where do you buy polymer clay? I only do paper clay coz I can't find the polymer clay.... well, my only sculpture is a head of my imaginary horror figure hahahah....
