In my opinion, Laguna soldate 60, works very well for larger sculptures. I sculpt works about 24″-36″. It has a finer grit so stays smoother than other sculpture clays I use. It is forgiving when hollowed out and does not tend to crack as I dry it slowly. As I paint the surfaces instead of glazing, I found it absorbs the final application materials well.
