How to make clay sculpture?

The simplest thing is to find out whether there is yellow mud with good viscosity in the local area. If there is, bring it here and dilute it with water to make mud soup and put it in the sun. When the water evaporates to a certain extent, the top layer of fine mud paste will be fine. This is the most basic material, and it is also used for teaching in ordinary schools.

Even better, there is another kind called Mujietu, which is sold on Taobao. A pack of tens of dollars is also very easy to use.

If you want to make things more detailed or show more details, you need to carve sludge, which is also available on Taobao.

I suggest you start with the most elementary materials and use them step by step. The quality of the material is directly proportional to the carding skill.
