A search upon sculpting tools turned up an interesting thread involving forehead sweat's effective properties upon green stuff & some things I'd never have thought of to use for sculpting tools.
Tooth picks are often recommended on youtube and various other sources as great green stuff sculpting tools, and toothpicks are sort of in my budget right about now. :^(
What other creative sculpting tools... well I suppose all sculpting tools create so, bad word play. Uh, please name off some of your favorite sculpting tools.
Maybe you have multiple favorites for different reason's? I've got a big beer mug her at my work station and paints and some green stuff, what sculpting tools can I fill this beer mug with?

Get a small kit off ebay, you can get a couple of double ended tools for £3 or something. Forehead sweat does indeed work but you need lots of it

Just use water and wipe most of it off on a tissue. Or Philadelphia cheese.
The best tools ever are 'wax carving tools', which are sometimes labelled 'dentist sculpting tools' but you can use other cheaper tools. Sometimes when using milliput, which is more cement-like than green stuff I'll opt to use a standard small screwdriver which broke off from its body. I still use water but then feel no worries in having to clean it properly, just wipe the milliput off afterwards.

The reason that I have found toothpicks work so great is because the wood absorbs a lot of water and doesn't become sticky very quickly. I haven't tried any other wooden tools, but next time I go to Michael's (a big box craft store) I plan on getting a set of wooden clay tools such as these ones: www.michaels.com/artminds-mini-clay-tool-set/10356856.html I will let you know how they work.
