    There's really no one best clay.  The clay you pick is often based on budget, type of sculpture, and what you feel like working with.  For smaller maquettes and figures, Super Sculpey is a popular choice, if you are looking for an inexpensive clay and don't expect the sculpt to take weeks/months WED clay is a popular choice, and if you like oil-based clays Chavant NSP and Monster Clay are both popular choices.   I don't know if you would be able to find WED clay in Turkey, though it might be possible.  If not, you may be able to find another similar water-based clay locally that is inexpensive. 

    What materials you should buy also depends on what you plan on sculpting and what clay you end up finding.
