hey all, im working on a few projects and i was wondering if anyone else was too, i'll go ahead and describe what im planning on making but keep in mind not all of it is done or even started lol.
first of all im taking a ceramics and sculpting class this semester at college so im going to get to make plenty of cool stuff.
right this moment im working on a dragon mask/spaulder. I say mask/spaulder because i dont know which i want to make it right now lol, probably spaulder though.
anyway im using the 'lost wax' method (you can youtube that, hard to explain) and im not sure if i'm going to cast it out of aluminum or bronze, probably bronze. I'll be back in class on tuesday, but i may slip in on monday to work on it more and take pictures. it's about 80% finished (wax) i just have to add horns and work on fine details. it's horns are based on d&d black dragon horns.
I just finished a see-through eyepatch/bandage and i have a youtube link - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLhjqsLmzAA
I have also created a larp safe 'power claw', of course i wont bring it to any larps without approval by the larp owners but even still its just a pretty cool little piece i've made, here are some pictures -
i can explain how i did that if you want to know more but keep in mind it didn't come out exactly how i wanted.
here is a banner im currently working on, just pvc and material, not done or even close
here is a leather bracer guantlet thing i made out of scap leather and painted
satyr mask (i need to fix the horns to look more goat-like) -
Book/journal. this was a generic solid black journal with a metal magnet attatching thing. i just cut that off, cut out the magnet and filled the hole with a small leather strap attached to a single chainmail ring and ran some leather string i made through it. used a dremmel and sandpaper to do most of the damage. -
LARP cannon (basically a lightweight potato cannon, uses a bicycle pump and can only shoot about a yard lol) very very unfinished and possibly not usable in most larps... -
leather gorget (the boxy infinity symbol matches a tattoo on my forearm, kinda a heraldry thing in-game) -
golden wreath. it's meant to be worn under the hair but i didnt feel like messing with it so i just stuck it on top of my hat. bought at halloween, removed the elastic band, cut in the middle and made the wreath go 2 directions, not just one, and used some sort of golden wire to attach with hot-glue. -
a heraldry armor shield I plan on guilding in metal hopefully...if not ill jsut buy a sheet of metal and make this -
also, lastly, here is a huge pvc flute i just made..it is basically in alpha stage though, so dont expect anything fancy lol.
and tons of other projects but none have to do with larping lol.
