heyas; i also prefer the add-on method of sculpting (molding in clay) rather than the subtractive method (chiseling, etc). if i started chiseling a block of marble, the best i'd end up with is a pile of marble chips. :) i confess, though, i HAVE box-modelled some things. i used it for the rabbit lure for my falconry gear (after all, that's basically a block of wood dressed in fur! lol!), and i even used it to sculpt the torso of my latest figure. a very SIMPLE figure. for stuff with detail.... i'd be lost.
