Weathering with explosives

Does anyone have any experience weathering their armor with firecrackers, M80s or roman candles? I feel like the M80 would do more damage than is necessary but i like the idea of real scorch marks.

PS- It goes without saying that I'll be careful...

With respect, I wouldn't even try. You risk warping and melting the plastic on your helmet.

 

If the above warning wasn't enough, do a test with some plastic and see what happens. I, for one, would hate to see you damage your helmet past the point of it being approvable.

I tried setting off a small single burst firecracker and it left a yellowish brown scorch mark. Not quite what I was looking for. It wiped away easily. If anyone is considering doing this. Its an unnecessary risk to your armor without good effect.

I like your style though...

 

Blowing stuff up is always a +1 in my book.

If anything, it'll just leave ashes on the surface that'll wipe off easily. Perhaps if you must have real blast damage, just use ashes, maybe a clear coat to make em stick.
