Hi Don - I was last on here trying to find out what happened to a really good minimalist stop motion piece that I originally thought was called Time. It was about two characters stuck in a dingy room and just work and stop/rest from working/typing and don't have much time to know much else. I dont want to give the rest away. Superb concept and message. Short piece. Intelligent and thoughtful animation with no theatricals, violence or monsters. Regard, Karl.
I have not found Caran D'Ache clay in stores, but did see their other art supplies.
I do know how to modify Van Aken to get the properties you're looking for. Spent a year studying clay formulas and got it down pretty good. I'll send you a private message.
Don,
I used to animate with a clay that is manufactured by Caran d' Ache . It doesn't come in as many colors as the Van Aken brands, its waxy texture holds up much better under hot lights, and it cleans up a lot easier because the dyes in the clay don't run as badly as the other brands .

PS - I just wanted to know if you ever came across it?
Re two wind-up characters whose existence or movement relies on each other winding the other one up.

Hey Don, long time no chat. How's the business going?
Thank you! Yes it is a combination of latex and sculpy for the eyes.
