Blah, Blah, Blah, Costuming, Blah.

Dude, Super Sculpey is totally strong enough for the computer part of the wristband, as evinced by the fact that I dropped the damn thing on the kitchen floor twice after I pulled it out of the oven and no harm was done. Out of curiosity, I subjected it to a bit of abuse and it's clear the stuff will break, eventually, but it's much closer to a plastic in terms of tensile strength, than the clay it impersonates. The shape of the test bit isn't ideal and I don't know what would be more aggro - sanding it into an ideal shape, or ditto a poly resin casting of same...

*shrug* I'll try making a better version of the "lozenge" - as I have taken to calling it - in Sculpey and bake that up, as it'll be needed either way. Sculpey is sure to be a hell of a damn sight easier to paint, I suspect, so I'm inclined to try as hard as poss to make that work. I'd probably have an easier time shaping it if I had more than a craft knife and my fingers for shaping purposes. Today's discovery: a full soda can makes an excellent mini-rolling pin.
