I understand these 2 are the best choices for sculpting, but which one is better? At 1500y for mailing 1 pack over they're both rather expensive choices so I'd like to get the best one. How is New Fando different from the regular fando anyway?
I have been using New Fando to sculpt my latest doll and I love the stuff. It holds its shape well while wet and it is very easy to add more once it is dry. It sands like a dream and even with course sandpaper, you can smooth it out even more just by rubbing the surface with a little water on your finger. It comes out like glass. It is also very strong. I by mine from this place. http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/paint/ I have bought 6 packages at a time and it comes to around $10 per package. The paper clay at Michael's was about the same price.
Woo! Thanks for the question, and thanks for the answer. I wanted to know about Fando, too! I'm absolutely going to go get some this weekend! always hyper about new art supplies, ghostdollie
I tend to mix both of them together. However, used differently: La Doll is a bit softer to work with than New Fando. La Doll can be mixed with Premier(another clay) New Fando is more of the clay which you can use slowly while La Doll is pretty much make the most out of your time. La Doll is much stronger and holds well, but can`t make detailing a easy job.
