Description
For more photos of the props/armour I've textured, and to see the shuriken in use, take a look through my Wai-con photos (My sister and I are cosplaying FFVII Yuffie & Tifa and their AC versions). [link]For tutorials on making the props & armour, I recommend Amethyst Angel's tutorials: [link] She does some amazing stuff!

Ah, brilliant- just found this in time for me starting to construct my next cosplay! X3
D'you think this sort of weathering would work for armor as well? I reckon it should (ignoring the whole tips about sharpening weapon edges and such XD), but have you done anything about constructing armor before?

Well, there were a few other metal pieces on our FFVII costumes that I used this technique for (like Aeris's shoulder bands [link] and Yuffie's big shoulder guard, forehead protector etc [link] ), but I haven't has a chance to try it yet with full scale armour. I imagine it'd work for pretty much any metal surface though.

Beautiful design. And the tutorial was very easy to understand and (hopefully) follow. lol When I first saw this, I thought you were making a step-by-step for a Naruto cosplay.
