Taking sculpting as a class, how do I stop my clay from drying out
Today, we were assigned the job of making pinch pots with designs. I tried 3 times, but every time my walls were too thin and started to crack. My hands are in general very cold. Anyways, they were supposed to be handed in at the end of class, but since I couldn't complete it at all (0 work done due to restarting), I will be given another opportunity another time. How can I make sure I don't f*** it up? Also, would like some ideas for designs on my pot. Thanks.

How to get fabric and lint off of plastilina clay? +1 More Question
I've seen many people talk about polymer clay, and before and after bake for getting off lint but I'm wondering about a different clay.
It is made of wax, oil, and clay flour. How do I get fabric, lint, and hairs off of plastilina clay? Thanks!!
Also random but any suggestions on what to do for stop motion armatures/materials (the stop motion thing would be a bear/gummy bear [smallish body and big head if gravity permits].

Why the paint is coming out so uneven? T.T
It's my first try with air-dry clay and it was fine. Then I started painting it with acrilics (I prepped with gesso) and the color is so uneven and you can really see the brushing marks T.T
What did I do wrong? :( The paint is not fully dried yet

Help me find this clay
I found this cup at Goodwill it's like a little nativity cup made out of a glass cup with clay around it but the clay is this rubbery very durable material while also look like that clay that you bake that comes in those little rectangles. I need this clay it is durable and it looks awesome would greatly appreciate it I could get support. It's feels rubbery and flexible and soft at the same time if that helps and don't worry the camels ear wasn't breaking off even though it looked like it it's very durable
