What kinda weaponry were you looking for? My sculpey skills are pretty nil, but once I have my crafting space set up I plan on making some candle holders (transparent sculpey + blue & yellow = starry night candle holders FTW!) & might feel extra craft incluned if the candle stuffs turn out any good. Or maybe if they turn out really bad I'll console myself by making crappy mini guns or swords or something.
Also? I know it's not pleasant, but try horseradish for stuffed sinuses. You can buy the jar stuff, but if you can find an actual plant/root, chop off a chunk & take a big whiff. Alternately, ginger tea, made with ginger root is supposed to help. And munching a bunch of altoids always helped me. But it wasn't the same kind of stuffiness, so I don't know.
(I also am sick, but not feeling totally crap-tastic. Just sore-throat-tastic. Oddly, gargling Listerine is working far better than I had thought in would. *notes for future reference*)
Guns, knives, that sort of thing. I have pictures up on Flickr (ummm, here) of specific things from the show, but *any* weaponry would be helpful.
I made some crappy guns and knives of my own this weekend... they'll have to do. I used to be good at working with clay-- but that was ceramics clay, which has a totally different consistency. Sculpey is so freakin' soft and sticky-- it's like trying to model with used chewing gum. (And yes, I'm aware of how gross the comparison is, but it's all I could think of when I was working with it yesterday.)
I'm given to understand that Fimo and most other oven bake clays aren't quite as soft as sculpey, so maybe I'll try one of those some day. But I haven't the funds or time.... :)

Anyway, if you get a chance, that'd totally rock!
