Have any of you guys taken are classes or anything?

I haven't taken a single art class or lesson from anyone. That explains why I'm so bad at it. xD

Also, what tools and clay do you use?

i just started in 2001 on my own and still making films on my own , just keep practasing drawing , making models etc. your will get more experienced and learn new skills

Ah, I only started about late last year..

the main thing is keep doing different arty things, get your own style and just learn new things and become experienced

Yeah, Im practicing drawing as well...

I've never been to any courses. I tought myself.
