Artist's Comments

In this picture You can see the sword!

I made it out of a long piece of wood which I carved...to be a sword...with a wood rasp = sore arm!!

The hilt was very... *complicated*... It involved...spackel, gesso, Roc hard water putty... a plaster carving, a Play-doh mold...Plastic from electrical wires...tiny little nails, wood glue, lots of frustration... and much sanding...
(not in that order...)

The whole thing is painted with spray paint over a coat of white latex house paint... and some acrylic on the handle...

Overall I am very happy with how it looks!... Sad though... due to the Convention's "weapon policy" I was mostly not allowed to take it anywhere... Oh well...

heh....here's a link to something funny...I have the action figure... and I thought it was neat how it could pose the same...

It is rather lame so I will refrain from putting it in my gallery...(=_=;
but anyhow...[link]


(hahahaha....lame! lame! lame!) :bonk:

*blush* :giggle:

Thanks!

Despite the frustration... It was really fun to make! It was challenging trying to figure out how to make it look right using tools and materials that I had available... I love nothing more than a good challenge (^_^) that's the main reason that I like cosplay, the challenge of translating manga or anime artwork into reality.

Thank you

I like the variety of skills cosplay utilizes.

yeah, my avatar is me wearing a mask I made for a haunted house I did this year. My dad's a carpenter so the creativity sort of runs in my blood (and the blood of my enemies)...you know...like Jesus
:icone1l0n3wy:
eh...?
Jesus was a carpenter too... ya know...:giggle:

That's cool that you made your mask!
Its good and creeeeeeeepy!
:iconrigormortismagician:
Awesome! Great job!

The sword is made of win. It really is a wonderful piece of work, along with your costume.
