I am planning on making a HUGE Green lantern battery to use with a map im making of OA and use it in my Sinestro Corps war scenario and also a Black Lantern Battery with the Anti-monitors hand sticking out and was wondering what the modders of the realms might recommend for this. I know I want to find one or two extra anti-monitors so I don't have to sculpt the hand so I'll basically be looking for something that can make large batteries out of ....

any ideas...

I thought clay but that would be brittle and I don't have a kiln or anything to make them look shiny.

You want the following:

Aluminum Foil
Translucent Super Sculpey - the block of it

Take the foil and build the shape of the battery. Once that is complete, take the sculpey, and apply it over the battery - make sure you shape and smooth everything out.

When it is done - turn on your oven - preheat to 250 - throw your masterpiece in for about 15 mins - pull it out, let it sit as the sculpey might still seem playable to some extent.

After it hardens, cut any parts of and smooth again with a razor or xacto if need be - paint, call it a day.

Then glue whatever clix onto it you want or whatever it is you are doing.
