This tweet was in response to a thread of "What is your weakness as a DM?" and I found it (unintentionally?) funny.

As though that's an actual choice ...

“Sometimes I do grimace”

And I immediately thought “he must be happy”

Grimace, grimace must be happy.

If you think the internet isn't above making fun of people I have a toy police badge to sell you.

I had an '86 Olds Toronado that looked similar, but also a bit more conventional. Flip up headlights, auto raising radio antenna, self sealing trunk, four cigarette lighters and ash trays, leather seats more comfortable than a sofa.....

@Ryujin so, I skipped a step but at least you can tell what I was looking at doing. Then I looked more at different pictures and realized that I didn't need a full bracer, just a cover for half of my lower arm and I put the "tubing" wrong as well. Luckily I still have a lot of foam left, to do it correctly and the shoulders. This was just with one coat, I think when I do what I'm supposed to do lol I'll see about using my air brush for the silver/metal look.

You won't get any comments about a mistake from a guy who cut a piece of leather for a project upside-down, this afternoon

When I wanted a bright metallic finish on my 3D printer Phaser, a while back, I searched like mad until I finally got my hands on a can of Rust-oleum "Bright Coat" metallic finish silver paint. It came out looking a lot like milled aluminum, though that was on a solid and smooth surface.

Well, like I've been saying it's a learning experience as I go along. When I start work for the galaticon (held during the UFO festival) in the summer I'll know what I need and how to do it. I'll also have a longer time frame to do it all.
