Buster Sword!

[liam (Liam Clifford)]

Today I’m in with a mate making an anime style buster sword, for those that don’t know it’s a giant manga-tastic weapon that only exists on the pages of Japanese comics… most of the time.

This is prep for Comic Con London in October!

This is the inspiration (Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy):

This is what it will apparently look like in the end :

This is the video we’re following: https://youtu.be/0eExFqLVNH0

I’ll share the result when it’s done, probably next week.

I love cosplay projects! I’ve never been to a con or had the focus necessary to make a whole costume, but I know it’s only a matter of time…

What materials are you using? Something crazy lightweight, I hope…

Yeah it’s 4x 10mm insulation board stuck together. Progress so far…

We decided that a few hours was enough drying time

Creating the blade, might need the Dyson once we’re done

Good progress today, blade finished, handle installed and sword is painted. It’s tucked up for the night to dry…
