Glad to hear it, I hope it is fun to mess around with.

No problem Neanderthal, you do some very nice work!

Nope, it will melt instead. Sculpey will harden when you bake it.

Hi Lance, the man who made those books was Eadweard Muybridge.

Hi Biju, your site is nice. It is very well put together and easy to navigate. I find the photography section interesting as well. Maybe your art teachings will make a big difference in the lives of some of the people in your country.

I can't say when it will be done since my life is really busy now. I use Super Sculpey for hard props and Van Aken Claytoon for the soft clay puppets. I also use foam latex.

No there isnt, Ive used both there the same.

Experimenting with these clays is the only way to get a feel for them. They might have changed the formula since I last used it. Also when that clay ages it becomes harder. You can't bend it when it's thick too it has to be thin. It has its advantages on really small puppets or very if they are very skinny.

Hey Jordan, yes you can. You can file it with hand files and sand paper also, they are plastic. Just be careful of your fingers!

Oh ok, you can learn how smooth movement works in this article on our site: http://www.animateclay.com/index.php/articles/70-beginner-guides/169-how-to-use-a-surface-gage-for-stop-motion

Hi Gianpa, sorry I don't know what you are asking here.

NEVERMIND!

Hi Joseph, were you the person who called me last week? Well, glad to help you out. I hope your project turns out nice.

Ace Hardware sells those, also smallparts.com is a resource that I think carries K&S as well.

thanks marc.

Hi Fernando, that armature looks really really good. Nice movements!

Yes Nicholas, our site will go down tomorrow in protest.

Hi Ben, your film is really well done! Fight scenes like that are hard to pull off with so many puppets! Zombie Pirates is alive and well, but so are my responsibilities which keep growing. Hopefully I can get more done on it soon.

Hi Jordan, you got the AS eyes? For those it would depend, are you making a clay head?

foam and latex

can it be done with these? or will i have to get a different type??

Just join in the discussion and post your video link in the message board thread for the challenge. That's all there is to it. It's free, there's no catch to it or anything.
