Description
Noctis' Engine Sword DevelopmentI cant believe I made it! I almost gave up hope 35x because it keeps throwing obstacles at me, but I finally finished it in the hotel room right before Saturday Otakon'11! I know I cut a lot of corners because some parts actually got destroyed during transportation so I am definitely not done with this sword. I will make all the missing pieces before the next convention!
please leave comments! I will gladly share all the information and experience I have to prop makers!

very nice work. Quick question: What did you use for the revolver barrel thing? (the domed-off cylinder if that's any more clear) I'm making this sword as well and am at a loss as to what i should use for that. Thanks!

i used a small shaving cream can and rounded it with epoxy putty and grinded it smooth, but i didnt do the details to make it more of a revolver, I would recommend craving it from wooden dowel with a dremel personally

Thank you! For every task there is a perfect tool, I was just blessed that my family had the right tools for woodworking. I am even more impressed by cosplayers without the perfect tools. That is a fabulous crossbow you made, I'm still at awe that it is not real

Why thank you~ I'm surprised it didn't break at all.

I kept working on it on and off so it was about 3 months of mainly woodwork and cutting metal, but I needed a year of blueprinting to know how to cut. I will post more pictures with details later ^^
