hi guys and thanks for the replies.

Tony , thank you mate. very kind of ya. Megroot, thanks also.

Gordy- i like wax and chavant best because its hassle free for making changes to a piece. there is no sanding, curing or baking to be done and wax is ready to carve when cool which is very quick indeed.
Chavant is fantastic too. slap it on in a stroke like fashion and build your forms. both are easy to work with heat from a foil lined box and an alcohol torch. i use minimal tools, 3- 5 and my fingers mostly. i get my waxes from Willowwax.com and Sculpt.com for Castilene and asbro.
the castilene can make Military scales with no bother of an armature. hope thats some useful info chaps!
