The clay is used for claymation,or clay animation!.Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Plastilina or modeling clay!. It is mixed with an oil to prevent it from drying!. It is very workable and softens with the heat of your hands!. You can get it in many colors and mix them together for specific colors!.

Fimo is a plastic based clay that is very expensive in the larger amounts that you would need for clay-mation!. It is best for small works like jewelry and can be cured in a regular kitchen oven!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

any oil based clay!.
van Aken Claytoon appears to be especially for Animation but even the dollar store plasticenes should be OK!.
