The worst experience a sculptor can have is to create something amazing, only to have the project fail due to the absence of sturdy support. Creative Mark's fully adjustable range of armatures come as a figure or a head-bust combo. Our armatures are malleable enough to provide true artistic freedom to create, while also providing a sturdy skeleton to hold the weight of modeling material. Each armature has a stiff steel post, and a base made of laminated particleboard. The aluminum wire is lightweight, pliable, non-staining, and non-corrosive. Each head has a partial neck and the space to build a unique bust. The base of the neck is wrapped in additional wire so that you may include the collarbone. Key Features: * Made of Aluminum * Pliable, non-staining, and non-corrosive wire * Laminated particleboard base * Stiff steel post * Each head has a partial neck * Neck base is wrapped in additional wire * Space to build a unique bust * Perfect For: * Sculpture applications * A base for moist clay or plastilina * Figurative sculpture * Lifesize bust portraits * Fine artists * Supporting polymer clay * Classroom and workshop environments Please note, you cannot put the armature in a kiln during firing. The clay will shrink, but the wire will not, resulting in cracking and breakage. You should remove the armature and hollow out the clay head before firing. We suggest using a wet and twisted newspaper armature as the paper will burn off during firing. See More

The Lino Cutter Set features a comfortable beechwood handle, five tempered steel blades, a blade remover tool, and a wooden box for storage.

High-quality steel is used to make each sharp, long-lasting blade. Changing the blades is easy. Simply push out one blade with the dowel rod and insert a new blade in the handle. The wooden lino cut set contains a 2 mm, 3 mm, and 4 mm U-shaped blade, a 1 mm V-shaped, and a 5 mm chisel blade. Pair your carved linoleum blocks with the Hand-Held Baren, available in two sizes (51 mm and 66 mm). Each solid wood Baren has a polished, domed handle that comfortably fits in the palm of your hand while printing. Its short-domed shape allows you to easily bear down and apply even pressure to the print with your body weight. The wide, felt-covered base is virtually friction-free and ensures consistent ink coverage every time.

Chamois skin is very soft and naturally absorbent, with no abrasive properties that will damage even delicate papers. The chamois can be cut into small manageable pieces and carefully used to blend cleanly and softly, instead of smudging with fingers, which can introduce finger oils to the surface and discolor the drawing. Used primarily as a blending and erasing tool with gentle wiping or rubbing, the artist can blot the excess surface, pull up dust, or even lighten the drawing with precisely controlled blotting. Once the chamois surface has been completely used, it can be either soaked in warm, soapy water and hand-washed, or run through the washing machine with detergent (but no softener) and then hung in a safe place to dry. Do not hang in direct sunlight. Once dry, it will be stiff and firm but is easily re-softened by rubbing together against itself or another clean piece of chamois. Set of Four: Includes Four Chamois, two 5”x7” pieces and two 13”x13” pieces. Key Features: * Soft natural leather cloths * Naturally absorbent without being abrasive * Use with charcoal, pencil, and soft and hard pastels * Reusable; just wash and allow to air dry * Can be cut to any size Perfect For: * Blending and shading charcoal and pencil drawings * Lifting and erasing dry media * Illustrators, Pastelists, Fine Artists * Keeping dust level down with pastels and charcoal * Easy cleanup See More

Key Features:* For charcoal, pencil, and pastel blending* Blending with pencil drawings and with oil pastels* Sandpaper to clean off the tips* Set Includes: 2x Springy Sponge Blenders, 6 assorted sizes of Stomps, 3 sizes of Tortillions & Sandpaper Pad for sharpening Springy Sponge Blenders Springy Sponge Blender are ideal for blending, softening edges, and applying color in hard-hard-to-reach places. Sponge Blender sticks are also perfect for applying color directly off them to areas, for soft touches and dabs of subtle pastel. Springy Sponge Blender handles have unique scraper tips that can be used for removing small areas of color or carving lines into thicker color layers. Stumps (Stomps) and Tortillions Stumps are traditional blending tools for pastels, charcoal, and graphite pencil drawings, manufactured from tightly-rolled cylinders of blotting paper that is then sharpened into a point at one or both ends. Stumps are best used for blending larger areas. Tortillions are used for smudging pencil, charcoal, and pastel works. Tortillions vary from Stumps in that they are created from diagonally rolled paper, instead of a tighter rolled cylinder (Stumps). Tortillions work best blending in tighter areas, as they have a firmer tighter tip due to their construction. When the ends of either become dirty or worn, the ends can be sanded clean (and shaped to custom points) with the Sanding Pad, also included in the set. Sandpaper Pad Sandpaper Pads are the best accessory for not only cleaning Stumps and Tortillions, but also for sharpening pastel and charcoal sticks and pencils into points or hard edges for detail work. Creative Mark's Sandpaper Pad comes with 12 removable 1" W x 4" L sandpaper sheets, mounted on a pressboard wood handle, complete with a predrilled hanging hole for storage. See More
