Oooh, that is a nice plus. Heavy props can be such a pain to lug around.

thanks! and yes of course! it's a base of foam which I fiberglassed over and the details are all done in styrene and I found some amazing chrome spray paint called Plasti-kote for all the silver shiny bits

Rora-at-Dawn In reply to EpicArtistDeidara [2012-08-26 04:46:12 +0000 UTC]

well I'm making props, I don't want live weapons as these are for conventions. Plus...I don't like how storebought ones look. There's always something a little off. Also...I highly doubt they'd let me cross the US-Canada border with a sword.
