Work on a smooth, non-absorbent surface. Glass or ceramic tiles are very suitable for this.
Roll out the modelling clay as thinly as possible. This not only makes it easier to cut out, but also makes miniatures look more realistic and true to scale.
Dust the cutting edge of the cutter lightly with cornflour or potato starch (as when cutting out biscuit dough with flour) to prevent it from sticking.
Chill the modelling clay before cutting. Warm mass is softer and sticks more easily.
Place cling film between the mixture and the cutter. However, this will result in much rounder edges.
If the modelling clay is too soft, switch to a firmer material, e.g. Fimo Professional or Kato Polyclay - this will ensure clean results.
