I'm doing a Ramona's hammer and just don't know how to get it looking like a stone or metal.
Any help?

Stone hmmm...

try stone spray paint.
It spits out flecks so it makes an uneven color.

Every home improvement or DIY place will have it for like $7 USD a can.

Do you have OCD? It's okay to make threads to ask cosplay questions. You don't have to consolidate everything on the board into a handful of threads.

If everyone thought like that, the board would be shitted up with 2 post threads asking inane questions that could easily go into a general thread. Also it makes you seem like a newfag fuckwit.

Threads that are on topic are not "shitting up" anything. What's "shit" is people who post with annoying attitudes like you who try to bark orders at everyone trying to tell them how they can or can't post.

If you have nothing helpful to say then fuck off and stop being a prissy bitch.

I'd go with Metallic spray paint instead of the stone. I did that the first time I made her hammer, but it ended up melting in rain because of shitty sealing job, so I ended up wrapping the whole hammer head in Duct Tape and that's worked ever since.

I've been able to get a good metal effect by spray painting something in chrome or silver and then weathering it by using a dry brush or tissue with a mixture of a grey, dark grey/black paint. make sure you brush or rub it on, and then rub it off so its not painted but leaves a sort of stain. Make any seams or corners darker... and color to liking. I hope that makes sense. good luck! as a side note, this works really nice if what your working with (like wonderflex etc) has a subtly textured surface.

My dad and I made a Ramona hammer once, the shape is totally wrong but I love how the texture/look came out.
It's foam used to line heavy duty road cases, i don't know the specific name for it but it is fairly sturdy and rough, and comes in block form. We used mostly grey and a little bit of "sand" colour spray paint; the foam sucked it right up. After about 24 hours the paint dried completely and soaked in, because the holes of the foam are larger than normal and very rigid, it gave an almost concrete-like look to it, and the slight change in colour by spraying some darker paint over the grey helped give it depth
i'm sorry i can't give you a name for the foam i used though, but that's how we got it lookin' like a hunk of stone.

Well props are an art, tools are your best friend. Sand papering sheets of hot glue and using exacto knifes, scrapers and even cheese graters can give you a surface to work with. Grab a rock and just study it and yea that stone paint will do great as long as you spray it on something that it will adhere too. So surfaces like glossy paper it may flake off. Card board absorbs it a bit but get a base paint too.

Because Scott Shitglim is a feminist comic? So of course they teach little kids to go for the slutty white whore instead of the cute well educated non promiscuous Asian girl.

There is a lot of racism against Asian-Americans these days, actually. Especially at universities.

>> No.6522007

It's actually quite simple; proper men like Scott prefer women who meet their match. Ramona provides so much more sparring and excitement, both physically and mentally, than Knives. Knives would be the excellent housewife for a sociopathic workaholic, but as a life partner to go on adventures with she would be boring. She would just follow Scott wherever he went and be an obedient yes-girl.

>5 sex partners
At what part does she state she had sex with any of them? If I recall correctly, many of her exes were around middle school.

Also, Knives is a high school virgin. Imagine all the perverted thought's she's having, and how she for some reason thinks that hooking up with another guy will get her an Scott back together. Her slut-hood is present, even though she's a virgin.

Ramona is honest to her sexuality, and would never pull stunts like Knives do. That makes her vastly superior to the little chink hypothetical slut.

This.

1. Matthew Patel: "dated" for a couple weeks in middle school. Kissed once.
2. Lucas Lee: Followed her around in 9th grade until she agreed to date, mostly just sat on the curb together and smoked until she left him for
3. Todd Ingram: Her first actual relationship, lasted through high school until they went to different colleges.
4: Roxie Richter: College roommate through her bicurious phase, broke up after graduation.
5&6: Kyle and Ken Katayanagi: These are the ones she really wronged, cheating on each with the other.
7: Gideon Graves: The ultimate abusive, manipulative asshole.

0. Scott. He has no number because he's the one who breaks the cycle.
