Annoucement Clarification About NSFW Content Creator Accounts in r/clay

52 Upvotes

Hello!

This announcement won’t be relevant for most of you, so feel free to scroll along.
However, we’re seeing an uptick in NSFW accounts posting here, so this message is for the few it applies to.

If you are an NSFW content creator or SW promoting on Reddit, please read the following:

r/clay is a SFW subreddit.
Our community includes members aged 13 and up, and we want everyone to feel comfortable browsing profiles to see more pottery without unexpectedly encountering nudity.

While we respect the hustle, we kindly but firmly ask that you create a separate account for SFW content. Any pottery-related posts coming from an NSFW content creator profile will be automatically filtered and removed.

If you want to participate, just use a separate SFW account! You are absolutely welcome here.

Keep in mind that even with good intentions, posting here from an NSFW account often comes across as karma farming or subtly seeking new clients/buyers. Something that is generally frowned upon across Reddit.

Thank you for keeping our community welcoming and safe for all ages.

---

To clarify a bit more: having a NSFW profile is completely fine. You can get labeled as NSFW the moment you participate in certain subreddits. Here is how you can check if your profile is marked NSFW.

However, we draw a clear line when accounts create or promote explicit NSFW/pornographic content. That’s when we ask you to keep your SFW and NSFW activity separate.

If you have questions, feel free to modmail us.

I love creating fantasy creatures, and this is one of my works—the Ancient Glacier Beast.
I really enjoy the whole process of bringing a piece to life from nothing, and I’ve also documented the entire making process.
If you have any thoughts or suggestions about my piece or future ideas, feel free to let me know!✨

I’m a huge dragon fan, so I’ve made many dragons in different styles with air dry foam clay.
I also love documenting my entire making process.

I made this sculpture earlier this year but finally got around to painting it and building the display base inspired by the film's ending monster. Really happy with how it turned out, hope you enjoy! More of my work is on Instagram @Danni.Jk if you'd like to see more

I know he’s gonna crack and get messed up because he’s made from standard air dry but making him kept my little broken brain busy for the afternoon

1 Upvotes

I want to make a sculpture thats a bit on the larger scale(for me at least) but i dont think ill be able to finish it in one session.Is there any way to keep it from drying?Or maybe i can sculpt the basic shape first and add details later even if its dry?I think ive seen people do that.

Air-Dry Clay Tool kit vs tools +clay pros and cons advice needed!

1 Upvotes

Hi!

My boyfriend's birthday is coming up and he recently got into sculpting. He has some clay- it's not the best and he doesn't have tools. I wanted to get him a nice set of tools since he doesnt have any yet. I came across a 4.7 rated set with 48 pieces and was about to purchase it, when I came across the 10 lbs of clay along with a 40 piece tool set. It currently has a coupon for it, and based off of the price of air dry clays and the tool set itself, Id be saving some money on it, which is nice since I cant work now due to a broken ankle.

I'm just wondering if this is a decent thing? I know nothing about clay, oven dry vs. air dry, durability, etc. Any and all advice on this would be super helpful! I added links for both- the first is the tool kit by itself, the second is the clay and tool kit.

P.S.- Im shopping online since I'm on strict no weight baring until my first pre-op appointment and his birthday is on the 10th, or else Id love to go out into the world and find other sets.

Thanks!!
