I suggest getting some of the small colored blocks, can't go wrong with white and black, together form grey and can be used to make ammo, pouches,weapons or just random sculpting work. I buy mine from Michaels, use the 40-50% off coupon and your set. if you find super sculpy 2 soft to work with there are different degrease of firm,very firm etc, they have ratings, the more firm the clay is the closer it is to wax for sculpting. also for Banes tubes, I'd suggest going to a hardware store and head to the plumbing section, you can get clear plastic tubing in very small diameters for dirt cheap, theres even 1've seen before that's a neon green color you could get it and get a slightly bigger 1 to fit over and would look sick, reminds me I'll check my hardware store for ya and if I find some can get ya like a ft of it for a couple bucks.
Apparently I used crappy clay, which is more like Play Doh. I hate it, it keeps flaking and falling off. I looked up what you were talking about but couldn't really figure out what to use.
Can a couple of you guys who are more experienced at this please post some links to the products that I should be using? I really hit my stride when working on Bane but the quality of the clay killed it in the water.
