Materials essential for sculpting and making moulds and where to get them from


Most of the materials you will need you can get from Neill's Materials. As for the fixing spray you can order it from Kryolan. If you need a glue gun but you don't have one at home I would suggest to go to a crafts shop or order it from Amazon or Ebay. That's what I did. Same applies for the scale. I just bought a cheap one from Ebay. 

You will need:

Fixing spray

There are also smaller bottles, but it really depends on what you are doing but for the beginning I think one of the smaller ones is sufficient as well
