Hi,

I’m not sure what tips you are looking for…but here are some general sculpting tips I found online from a guy who makes mini figurines.

  1. Use water to blend green stuff to already dry green stuff.
  2. A flat tool works good for pockets, pouches, and hands.
  3. Layer the detail bit by bit and always let it dry.
  4. Anything less than 1mm is too thin to make a mold for.
  5. The other putties are brown, and a blue. They sand easier, and do not shred like green stuff.
  6. A 25 watt bulb on a 5# coffee can works to dry it faster.
  7. Use different mixes to get different results.
  8. Lubricate tools ( I do not very often, but you can )
  9. Experiment with mixing 1 putty with other putty.
  10. Practice
