Finger Skates
They’re made of a combination of materials. The main materials are Rec Skate Key chains that I bought from a convenience store in Barbados. Then I also used thin and very long popsicle sticks, craft foam, and special bread bag clips that slides very nice and they seem to use it a lot here in Barbados.
I was able to get it to look espceially good by tweaking them with tools such as a knife, scissors, razor, krazy glue (really strong tacky glue or glue gun glue which is “Stony” Jonathon’s trademark), paper for certain details, electric tape for smooth variances on colours (That’s how I got the green on the valos and the red lining on the liner of the Rachards) and printed coloured graphics to give better precision on details like on the side details of the Murda 2s.
Q: How long did it take?
A: Wow…uhhh it took me on average after I got better with my next models perhaps 2 to four days. my first took me a week. Even when i was done with them I still had to do finishing touches overtime to get them to look closer and closer to the actual models.
