This is the spear for my Balsa cosplay XD :heart:
** Balsa is a character from the Anime Serie no Moribito [link] [link]

IT'S FINALLY FINISHED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHAHAHA :w00t:

I made everything except for the pretty shapely bit just beneath the blade. I am VERY grateful to my best friend's boyfriend who kindly made that for me (he is skilled with wood working and made it on a lathe ^^ )

the spearhead was the hardest part for me (it took a LOT of sanding...) o_o...I was finding sawdust in my DREAMS!!! :faint:

It was a lot of work but I AM SOOOO HAPPY with how it turned out... :excited:

You can't really tell from this picture but it is about 5 feet long! ^^ It's pretty heavy too...

Yay for spray paint! I love that Krylon Hammered finish stuff !! :love:

:boogie: I'm off to AWA tomorrow !! XD

I'm sure that the construction of the spear point was quite... sandy.
