However for making big models, it's a good idea to use the 'Potters clay'. You may buy it from any potter at very cheap price. ( or else get some sweet earth free from river silt. You may dig 2 feet deep in your garden and collect the sweet earth. Sheave it with the help of fine sheave. Wet it with lots of water and leave for 1-2 days. Mix it thoroughly with the help of your hand. Please note, this process is very tiring).
