Hello RPF!
I'm hoping to attract some folks who may be familiar with weathering their Stormtrooper armor, blasters, sabers, and Star Wars props. Trooperbay sells something I think is really cool: their weathering kit that contains different samples of Earth and terrain. One of these samples is sand from the Buttercup Valley sand dunes, to replicate sand from scenes with Jabba on Tattooine. I'm looking to weather my vintage Graflex, and I'm wondering if anybody sells/offers sand samples from Tunisia. I know this is going to seem a bit goofy to some folks... but let's be honest: we've all done some goofy/questionable stuff in the quest to add realism and fun details to our props.
If anybody is looking for an opportunity to sell a vial of sand from your backyard in AZ, to some sucker on the RPF... now's your chance! But seriously, I'm aware that there's no way for me to verify the validity of something like sand (que the sand memes) so I'm hoping somebody who is going to Tunisia, or has been to Tunisia to visit the "homestead" set of "Tattooine" can provide me with a little sand. If anybody can provide some knowledge/tips on this endeavor, thank you in advance for your time and effort in responding to this post.
*Note*
