Rubber-Tipped ToolsThese tools work like a pencil on paper. They're fantastic for getting those finer more subtle details in your sculpture, the kind of details you'd find when sculpting a face or other intricate area.
These tools allow you to get into those small areas that the wooden tools may not work so well on. |

Mohair vs. Tibetan LambTibetan is a lot cheaper to practice on. It's shorter too. Tibetan is sold on the hide, so the animal is sacrificed for this. They are a source of food (Lamb) in foreign countries so they are raised for this, like beef cattle are here. Tibetan is about 5" long at the longest length. Tibetan is softer. Tibetan works great for small sculptures because it is so soft.
Mohair starts at about 5" and can be up to 12" long! It comes from goats. The older the goat, the longer and silkier the mohair so they are prized for the mohair they grow. Mohair is sheared off the goat, in other words, the mohair is cut off, so the goat grows more mohair again. Mohair tends to be more coarse to work with. |
