You asked about the clay used in positive sculpting temple panels & marine invertebrates for mold-making, as well as use in scale models. I use an inexpensive product called Klean Klay which is supplied by Art Chemical Products Inc,

1019 Salamonie Ave, Huntington, IN 46750 (260)-356-2328

This material is far superior to any other oil-based clay.

I learned about it from Warren Ness, who really does his homework on chemistry's. Richard Winget uses it in his rock scapes, too. check out www.kelcrete.com for more info. A little goes a long way, as the recommended doage is about 1 oz. per 5 gallons of mix water. I recently figured out, thanks to my boy, that it does not help in Kirt Bag. Jeff must have addressed those needs in his formula already.

I am keen to learn and develop these skills. However, I've got to start managing my time better. I am tight on time and spending time to learn about vertical overlays is a bit risky. However, every time I visit Nathans website and look at his work, I feel inspired and I honestly can’t resist the beauty in his work. A beauty that makes you comeback every time … despite your time limitations. I really feel passionate about it. Thank you for all the encouragement and support.

I picked interest in you after going through your short profile and demanding it is necessary for me to write to you immediately. I have something very important to disclose to you, but I found it difficult to express myself here, since it's a public site.Could you please get back to me on (ronaldmorr001@gmail.com) for full details.
Best regards,
