10x Sculpting Tools - Carvers

Green Stuff World set of ten sculpting tools

The set contains ten different sculpting tools in stainless steel. Each one is double-ended, so you have twenty shapes of points, blades and spatulas to hand: from flat spatulas through rounded burnishers to sharp carving points. The tools are intended for work with two-part modeling putties and with other sculpting and curing compounds. The set is supplied in a black fabric pouch, in which each tool has its place and the points do not meet.

Use

• shaping two-part putties when filling and converting
• carving and picking out folds in fabric, fur and surface textures
• smoothing gaps and transitions after filling with putty
• applying and spreading small amounts of putty on figures
• final shaping of filler on models and dioramas

How to handle the tools

Stainless steel gets along well with most putties, yet the work goes better if you wet the point with water or oil it, so that the putty does not stick. When you have finished, clean the tools before the putty hardens, because afterwards it is hard to get out of the carved edges. The points are thin and sharp, so do not store them loose among your other tools and do use the pouch.

Who the set is for

For modelers who modify and fill figures and models with putty of their own, for diorama builders and for anyone who needs more than a single all-purpose point. Ten pieces cover the usual range of jobs, so the set is also bought by those who are only starting out with modeling putties.

The tools have sharp points. Store them out of the reach of children and work with them away from your body.
