CHAVANT / Modelling Clay Products

Bridging the gap between Industrial Design and Fine Arts, modelling clays for the FX and entertainment industries are used by modellers who create products and props for film sets, clay animation productions, aftermarket collectables and rubber masks. The make-up artist industry often requires materials that allow for the rapid development of unique designs to meet unusual requirements. Clay meets these demands and can be used to create creatures, robots, body armour, fangs, costumes, wounds, weapons and numerous other single-use props. Characters or creatures can be sculpted and then scanned to capture digital surface data. Once the surface data has been collected, the digital image can be coloured, animated or modified for use on a flat screen.
