Hi, thank you for asking about a commission, but unfortunately I won't be working on any commissions after this last one I'm working on. I'm working on completing my last couple of semesters at my college and it will require a lot of time since I am a Theatre major. I would not want to work on something for someone, but only work on it halfheartedly. It wouldn't be fair to you.

However, if you would like some advice on making it yourself, you can go ahead and ask me as many questions as you need

I hope your time at Comic Con NY will be amazing!

It's alright.

And can you give me a bit of advise on making it? It would really help alot. The weapon I want to make is this: alyssatye.deviantart.com/art/B… alyssatye.deviantart.com/art/A… . I tried to make it out of tinfoil and clay, but it was really heavy. Is there any way I could make a light sickle like this?

BeautifulDragon In reply to DerangedDenny [2014-02-20 06:37:26 +0000 UTC]

If I were to make that I would use pink insulation foam to carve the basic shape of the sickle ((including the handle)) and then use worbla for the rest. Worbla can me molded when heated, so you can use it to cover the foam and then mold its spikes. Or you can use paper mache on the foam and clay for the spikes. If you need to use a smaller budget.

I would also suggest that if you do decide to carve it out of pink insulation foam, try to carve the entire prop itself and not create two separate pieces. Making it into two pieces makes the connection weaker. Pink insulation foam can come in many different sheet thickness. Try to find one that's just a little bigger than the sickle. From there its just creating a blue print how big, thick, and tall you want your sickle and then transferring that to the foam.

Does that help?

I cut out the shape from pleather I think ((can't remember what it was called, but it's imitation leather)) and painted the whole thing black. I painted the edges gold, and sketched out the gold boarders inside. I sketched out the design and painted that silver ((more like dabbed it silver)) and painted over any of the pencil marks showing through. Once it was dry I stabbed little holes and braided in the ribbon and added crystals to the end of the ribbon and bracer to give it a more feminine look.

Oh really? I wanna see the outfit when it's done And originally I wasn't gonna make the bracer, but then it looked so plain and incomplete so I made it anyway One of the easiest pieces I made for the cosplay. If you need anymore help, don't be afraid to ask
