"Kousakuyousi"(one of hard paper in Japan) is sold in only Japan.
It's harder than Drawing paper. The thickness is about 0.5mm.
I'm sure you can't get it.
Then, substitute various thin plastic sheets.
Glue with a Liquid super glue.
When you use a Super glue Accelerator, Hardening speed becomes fast.
(Smoke may be generated. Don't breathe in the smoke and don't put in eyes.)
Super glue accelerator makes hardening time short.
It's so useful.
Watch this video.
When you use 100ml, you can make a armorset or about two, three weapons.
←100ml ←420ml
Use a Iron gardening stick(diameter 0.6 or 0.8cm).
Use it as a core.
Cut it wit Freeway coping saw, pliers, nippers, diamond files, etc.
This stick is just a iron stick.
You can substitute various metalic sticks.
【Merit】
-It's usable just to paint with a paint brush.
-Gesso don't contain thinner, then you can use it in the room.
-You can use also Acrylic paint.
-There are several colors one, white black etc.
【Merit】
-It'st hard to peel off.
-It can use for PVC pipe or plastic sheets.
【Demerit】
-"Bond G17" is japanese commodity. Then you can't get it
easily.
-It needs thinner, then you must work outdoors.
-It burns easily. Don't use fire until drying, because "Bond G17" burns easily. Don' use a Lighter etc until drying.
The parts will be charred in seconds.
