pixiebellecosplay:UTENA SWORD PROGRESS!!!I am SUPER happy with this! I glued two wide and long pieces of balsa wood together to get the thickness I wanted for the blade and then used nothing but a box cutter to cut and get the shape I wanted. The handle is made of insulation foam that I cut with a hot wire and then sanded into the shape I wanted. The rose end is a piece of jewelry that I hot glued on and the wooden handle was put into the insulation foam and then I sculpted onto both the wood handle and where the blade connects to the hilt.This is by far the best prop I’ve ever made and one of the harder ones in design I think. What do you all think?Do you guys see an improvement?Tomorrow the hilt will get resin and then it’s time to paint and be SUPER careful at CPAC. Sadly I won’t have time to seal it properly so I’ll just have to hope for the best at the con.#SwordOfDios #Utena #RevolutionaryGirlUtena #CPAC -- source link
