Try starting here: http://www.kirkside.com.au/L89/sculpting-supplies/

Use Klean Klay instead of Monster Makers, you don't need Ultra Cal if you're using Plaster of Paris - and vice versa, and you don't need either if you are using Shell Shock, fiberglass or resin. They have different silicones as well, I'm sure that if you talk to a rep, they can point you to a similar product.

I tried to source stuff locally so you don't have to pay for through the nose for shipping.
