Modeling clay was a really fun book, but really you never need it. Now with all the videos online this book is really needed. I could learn how to make a much better bird with YouTube. Now yes, this book does help with very new beginners but I still think its not very useful with todays technology. To be honest, this book isn’t that great.

I loved what the author did with this book. My favorite thing was how she encorparated pictures of her own figures. One thing I did not like was how her mouse was pink and other animals like that being strange colors, but other than that I enjoyed it. I find all of the things in that book realistic except for the only colored ones, but other that that it is realistic.

Let me just start off with saying that this is not a book. I love all of the modeling clay figuers that this book has. It was nice in informative, it told me how to build the animals and it was a nice informative “book”. I didn’t see anything that the author could improve it’s just a type of DIY thing. I liked reading this “book” because it taught me a lot when it came to modeling clay. SPOIL ALERT its not just in simple three steps...

I personally do not like clay but this would a good book for people that like clay. I think the author did a good job on how to teach people to make the animals. He could of made it more exciting by adding harder animals.

The book was good it really showed how to make clay animals but it could have men more than just animals. But over all the author did a good job with the book.
