To some these sharp metal tools look like torture devices or even dentist tools.(Either way it still hurts ALOT, I only speak from dentist tools experience) Anyways, you are all wrong, they are tools used for clay sculpting.
Clay was my first interest into the arts, besides coloring books as a kid. I started out with pottery, then modeling. I actually stopped because as a little girl I got a really bad cut one time from a metal scraper I had. Then in college I picked up clay again and did some really cool mini-sculptures. Today someone brought in a Pixar book from the MOMA museum. They had some of their sculpting of characters in the book, and damn did it look great.
So, my decision is to go ahead and pick up the old 25lb clay and tools again:)
Given it will take me forever to do , but I am willing to reteach myself. If it actually comes thru, I will be sure to post some pics up of my work.
