This is a 60-page book complete with photographs indicating all the steps involved in forensic sculpting. It is a very simple book to follow but well written for every reader to comprehend and learn the art of sculpting.

It is elaborately presented starting with the materials required including the type of clays best suited for every purpose.

Furthermore, the author rigorously follows the steps that are required in a skull mount from tools and materials needed until the final sculpture is complete.

I have found his method very easy to follow and I therefore recommend it to all sculptors but most especially to forensic sculptors which are a rarity in the developing world.
