Two weeks of sculpting, molding, casting and painting resulted in this sword. I'ts going to appear in a fantasy short film inspired by slavic folklore. I'm so excited to see it in action!
There's still some details to finish up. The handle is wood, blade plywood. Both shaped by sanding and then painted. The cross guard was originally sculpted from clay and then molded and cast from polyurethane resin. Black pigment and silver powder was applied to the resin in the casting process. The silver powder could then be polished after the cast was cured.
The background wall was also made by me. This was a first test in carving and melting urethane board. I'm quite happy with the result!
