Ranma 1/2 - Shampoo's Bonbori

Post by Jewel Lilka-Xenobia » Sun Jul 11, 2004 10:24 pm

I'm okay at making weapons, but then my cousin told me to make her Shampoo's Bonbori! I don't even know where to start! Any help will do! (BTW, I'd post a picture of what it looks like, but I can't seem to find any pictures. But anyway, they look like giant spheres on sticks *sweatdrop* sorry for the bad description) Doomo Arigatoo Gozaimasu!

H'm, Maybe you could get two thick rods, two foam balls. Wrap fabric on the balls or cover them with something that way when you paint it you won't get small holes.

So to sum it up:
Buy two wooden rods, paint them.
Buy two styrofoam balls, cover them with fabric tightly.
Paint them.
=^.^= TeeHee, that was the best that I could think of, Sorry. .__.;;
