Not sure what kinds of tools you need to sculpt miniatures? Well the good news is, you can get by with sculpting just about anything by picking up these 5 MUST HAVE tools.

Small Burnisher:
If you’re not up for making your own small burnisher, you can pick one up from this great tool website:

Hobby Knife:
I prefer using a #15 scalpel blade for my hobby knife. You can pickup the handle I use here:

Unfortunately the blades aren’t for sale on this site anymore, but any of the other sizes could work just as well.
Needle Tool:
You can buy a probe tool in so many places I’m not even going to post a link here. Plus, this tool is so easy to make, I suggest just puttying in a pin to a brass tube.
Clay Shaper:
I use the Flat Chisel extra firm Clay/Colour Shaper. There are a variety of heads but I always use Size 0:
