Sculpting and Sanding

[MoonHawke]

I've been doing some sculpting on some customs with Apoxie Sculpt. How much sanding do you normally do on customs you sculpt on?

It really depends. Detail work usually goes without sanding, I try to smooth it out as I work. Changing poses, filling up holes etc. require lots of sanding... often more than I have patience for. ^^' I hate sanding so I'll do my best to avoid it if possible. It's much easier to smoothen the clay before it's cured.

Yup! I rarely do any sending, I just try to work as cleanly as possible in the first place.

I'm the same.  I'll try and smooth it out as much as possible before it cures because I HATE sanding, lol.  When I do sand, it's to get rid of any rough spots, fingerprints, or seams where I've plugged holes or joined pieces.
