"Clay Shaping Tools" is a good search parameter and a set should cost no more than $10-15 including shipping. They come in different hardness/firmness and I've found the firmer the better. Greenstuff tends not to stick to them hardly at all in my experience.

I really need to figure out what tools people use to do their sculpting, because I don't think fingers, toothpicks and an exactoknife are what the Perry Bros. use.matthewjksullivanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08126108200355039621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2874877056919928739.post-62913143219694814142017-03-08T06:31:05.682-08:002017-03-08T06:31:05.682-08:00DING DING DING!
