"Which grade of Monster Clay should I buy?"

That is one of the most common questions we get asked, and well, we love them all, but we might be a little biased. 😉

So, we wanted to bring that question to YOU, Monster Clay Sculptors. What is your favorite grade of Monster Clay, and why?

Can't decide on a favorite? You can always pick up a sample pack, which includes a small block of Monster Clay Brown in all three grades, as well as a block of Monster Clay Gray in Medium.

Have you met our original spokesmonster, Snarly?

The Snarly mask is an original design by Monster Clay creator Arnold Goldman, and he has been a familiar face around Monster Makers for decades! He was the model for our "Monster Makers Mask Makers Handbook," and is now the inspiration for our 33rd Anniversary Edition Snarly Green Monster Clay.

It differs a little from our other green, with a darker, warmer hue.

It's offered in Medium Grade only, and can be purchased by the tub, or by the case on our website.💚💚💚
