I think most people who do any type of sculpting know this company, but we are pleased to announce that they have signed on with ISY for the coming year. We will be highlighting some of their products here and even doing some front page videos regarding how to use certain types of the products.

UPDATE: They also have a great Facebook Page for those who want to go look. You might even see the new video there!

Wow! This is awesome news! Have you mentioned Dayton's work to them? He should be sponsored by them! I wonder how many people he has sent there way?

One of the first products that we would like to feature is a product they call Fixit Sculpt. I think most who use it as far as sculpting material on AFs consider it the best product on the market.

FIXIT Sculpt

Repair and Sculpt on a new, exciting level! FIXIT® Sculpt is great for many uses that require all of the features and benefits of our traditional FIXIT® plus offers exceptional sculpting qualities. It has a firm clay-like feel that resists sagging and drooping; holds detail & impressions. Generous 4 hour working time. Flat matte finish, accepts paints and stains. Great for intricate sculpting work, antler & bone art, ceramic repairs & more!
