Sculpting (skill)
Sculpting is a skill that will be introduced in the upcoming expansion pack The Sims 3: Ambitions.[1]
This skill will benefit from the Savvy Sculptor trait.
Sculptors can sculpt with junk provided by Sims with the Inventing skill.[2] They can use Sims as models. The can sculpt useful objects like chairs, or decorative objects like the 'silly dancing gator'.[2] They can create breathtaking masterpieces which can then be sold for profit. Sculptors unlock new media as they progress: "Sims learn different media as they advance in the sculpting skill, and each one requires a bit of a learning curve. The topiary is a high-level sculpting medium, but that won't keep your sims from accidentally decapitating their leafy lawn ornaments from time to time."[2] Ice sculptures will melt over time.[2]

Trivia
- The topiary sculpting may relate to the fact that (at least in my game) the topiary bush item shows up as a normal bush.
