	Alrighty, I apologize for my lack of activity in the guild. But more to the point... I want to make a gun from one of my very favorite anime and I'm not quite sure how to go about it. I plan on making a clay replica, making it into a mold and then get my final piece from the mold. How much do you think it all would cost and what materials should I use? If any of you can find a tutorial, I'd appreciate it. I saw one before but I have no idea where. Thanks for your input. C: Oh, and here is a reference picture. [[updated link]]

	Disguise and Sneak Attack? Perfect combination. I'd say, find a toy gun that looks close and modify it. Unless you have your heart set on casting the gun, it'll probably end up costing a lot less and be a lot easier. Keep in mind though that most conventions don't allow moving parts on weapons or live steel. Hope I helped! "Hello, I'm a book and today--SNEAKATTACK!"

	You could buy a nurf gun and sandpaper some parts and spray paint it.
