Sculpting Tools

I have found the most wonderful tools. Clay Shapers or colour shapers. They were originally used with pastels to move the color around. They work beautifully on the clay. I have used them for 4 years and can't imagine sculpting with polymer clay without them. They are like shrinking your fingertips, which are still my favorite, to very tiny instruments to shape, and refine my sculpture. I get a very smooth look with them and I have very little touchup after my sculpture is fired.
(Color Shapers look like paint brushes that have rubber wedges and points rather than bristles.)
