Description FULL VIEW PLEASE!

A new and improved sword compared to the first one I made almost a year ago, this Holy Sword from CLAMP's X is what I used for cosplaying Fuma Monou this year at SUMI Sentenyal: Bihisan ang Tugtugan, a Cosplay-Concert event at our college last September 15. I'm much more proud of showing you this one, now that I did improvements within a span of two weeks ever since I decided to reprise my character at the event. Thanks to , we had the chance of regaining dignity from last year's mishaps however, we didn't win too this year, but I felt much happier with the event this year for some certain reasons...). The whole sword consisted of a wooden stick as base, then mainly of rubber foam for the handle and all sorts of stock materials I have like plastic balls, old newspapers, ropes, etc. I used lots of poster and acrylic paint for the violet part of the handle, and lots of gold dust + varnish for the gold parts. The blade is now painted with spray paint (if you'd compare and notice the smooth finish with the first one) and is made of sturdy illustration board.

I feel like the basket that only covers one hand is really weird. It also limits where the hands can be on the grip.

What materials did you use to craft the sword? It is indeed a beautiful weapon and is even more aesthetically pleasing than the original.

I never really cared much for X, but Kamui's sword is awesome looking. Good job replicating it.

Is hard to do the sword nope?, i wanted to make my own cosplay of Kamui Shirou, but ;;w;; i can`t do the sword...
Excelent work n w n

It's easy as long as you have patience and... money to spend on materials. You can be resourceful though. I used a lot of recycled materials here, used from y past projects.

You could use it, though CLAMP owns the rights for it because their the authors of X.

That is amazing. Seriously, I have an obsession with swords from all periods and genres. I am also a fan of X-1999 so the best compliment I can confer is to say until I looked very closely I did not realise this wasn't a real sword!

eugenidesofattolia [2008-06-11 12:05:32 +0000 UTC]

simply amazing

i know lots of people have asked questions like this (and i'm sorry if you've already been asked this) but how did you create the rounded part of the guard, the bit that extend around the the handle?

๐Ÿ‘: 0 โฉ: 1

Sakanami In reply to eugenidesofattolia [2008-07-23 07:10:27 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much!

Is it the rounded part that looks like a wing? If it is, I made it through the use of craft foam or rubber foam and made patterns for it with curves and distortions so it creates the rounded part perfectly. It took a lot of trials before I got it right.
