http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/8.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Colour shapers. Which size do you use? Which stiffness?
I'd like to buy a set for sculpting green stuff and possibly milliput and magic sculp, but I need your advices about it.
I thought to buy the size 0 but I not sure about whether is better between firm (usually the one with grey coloured tip) and extra firm tip (usually black). What is your experience?

They're not terribly expensive, so I might recommend them even if you mostly use putty for filling gaps. If you plan to do a decent bit of sculpting, they're pretty much "must have" items.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/582562/6590181.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/582562/6590181.page GMT GS starts to go off it becomes really quite stiff. Milliput is always stiff while sculpy is the softest of the 3. Be care & thorough when you clean your tools after using milliput - you can file it off metal tools but if it dries on a shaper you'll probably have to bin it.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/582562/6590268.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/582562/6590268.page GMT So it seems that extra firm, size 0 is the most advisable choice. Somewhere I've read that size 2 is better, although it seems to me suitable just for large surfaces (like capes) and that in any case you should be more or less able to do with size 0 what you do with size 2, but not the inverse.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/582562/6591739.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/582562/6591739.page GMT
