Polyform Sculpey Original Box, 794 g - White

Quite soft, and does get softer the more you work it with warm hands. Often sticks to silicone tools.Even still, it’s the best value for money in terms of the quantity of clay you get, and it’s good quality stuff. I’ve made ornaments and figurines with it, and they’re all standing the test of time (and gravity). Definitely recommend to all skill levels.

Really great clay and decent value when comparing it to other oven-bake brands such as fimo. I prefer this non-coloured stuff as I paint the objects myself. Really strong and easy to use, plus doesn't dry out or go hard which is a plus.

This is my first experience with polymer clay and I can't get over how awesome it is! Having only every used air dry clay before, the quality of my sculptures was always lacking. Sculpey is so fantastic because it doesn't dry out as your working on a project. You can literally work on the same piece for months. The fact I haven't had to rush has given me the time to perfect my peices like never before. As a kid I used to love playing with plasticine and sculpey is the same! Only you can bake your creations solid when your done. Would recommend to anyone, it's so much fun!

I've been making stuff with polymer clay for a few years now. I mainly used Fimo, but at the time of purchasing, I found this to be better value (best price for the weight) so i figured it was worth a shot. I have to say, I wasn't too disappointed. I used it to make fridge magnets to resemble my cats (pictured).Comparing it to Fimo:+ Sculpey is much better value+ Sculpey is much more pliable and heats up faster, so requires less time kneading before being shaped+ I also like that it comes in its own durable cardboard box to store it in, Fimo usually comes in a wrapper which is difficult to reseal to prevent dust and crumbs enteringHOWEVER:- When this Sculpey clay is baked, it isn't quite as strong as Fimo, I found it slightly easier to snap, so I had to make delicate areas like the cat ears slightly thicker- When it's baked, although fairly strong, I found it slightly chalky surface texture - If I scratch at it, it'll sort of scrape away, so the texture is more like plaster than the dense "ceramic" feel I get from baked Fimo- Sometimes When the clay is baked, I notice something I need to alter, so I'll add a little more clay on top and bake it again. I've had no problems doing this with Fimo, but possibly due to the slight chalky texture of Sculpey, I found initially sticking 'wet' clay to the baked clay quite difficult - it just didn't want to adhere. I did manage to do it, it was just a lot more fiddly than Fimo.Overall, it is great value for experimental projects, or as a base but I'll probably stick to using Fimo for high-quality items I intend to sell or use long-term.

Used for sculpting heads for small mammals’ taxidermy

So much better than fimo, I’ve switched to sculpey instead and the texture is so much better for cutting nice clean sharp shapes out of it, much easier to mould also and you can leave this out in the air for weeks and it wouldn’t dry up, perfect for long sculling projects

It takes quite a lot to kneed it until soft. We wanted to make hand pribts of my baby but wasn't able ro as it was too hard for that project. My eldest ended up making a bowl out of it instead. I am still looking for alternative

Sculpey Original White clay 795gSo far I have only made 1 thing out of it, and I burnt it a bit (2nd photo) so do be careful. Other than that it is great stuff to play, I mean work with. And the price is excellent too. It is white but easy to paint and to add colours to in various ways.
