When it comes to smoothing it out there are a couple ways of going about it. One is to use your tool and smooth it, but sometimes that isn't enough. There is a process where you can use isopropyl alcohol and apply with a brush and it kinda "melts" the clay to a smooth finish. But you don't want to use it too much at once because it over softens it and the details will be lost. So slightly dip a brush would be a good way to do that. The last way to get smooth is after you've baked and the object's cooled you use a fine grade sandpaper. I think something like.....200 or 250 grain. Something very fine and slightly go over the sculpture. Those are the only methods I really know of, but they've worked for me fairly well. Hope it helps!
I'm making a bust for my Advanced art class, I haven't started working on it yet, but hopefully it will turn out well.
I've decided to make a fairly large head too @A@ any suggestions?
I appreciate your help.
lol head in the oven, you'll be showing it once it's done I hope!
Thanks a lot.
Good luck with your project!
Thanks!
