I will try to do this model so it's running. I can do other versions from this easy once it's finished and has a mold, so maybe a jumping one will happen soon.
The clay I use is an oil-based clay such as Roma or Chavant. Visit Artsupplies.com online for more info.

does it harden quickly?

Oil-based clay doesn't harden, it stays nice and soft so can be used over and over for other projects. You would need to create a mold if modeling in this material and cast a copy in a hardening resin for assembly and painting.
If you don't want to get into molding & casting, you will need a good quality clay that does harden such as Super-Sculpy. This needs to be fired in an oven to cure.

Oh. because we did stuff like this in my art class. and we made jugs with faces on them and fired them in an oven.

That's more likely to be a pottery type of clay you used then. Super-Sculpy is pretty expensive and comes in small packs. I guess your class would go for the cheaper firing material commonly used for making plates, jugs, vases etc...

Ya that's probably right.. it was my 7th grade Art 1 class. We were trying to make one of those ugly faced jugs they had in old times. something like that.
