And i think most of you know my Orbo pistol from Witch Hunter Robin (amon's is ready for CNC milling and lasercutting btw):

and here is the "Proxy Killer" from Ergo Proxy, which my friend Robert will mill for me.

Still kick myself for missing the run of orbo gun kits!!!!

I'd love to get a laser cut, screen accurate Duenan pistol.

I have made a human-scaled Zaku Heat Hawk;

...a Zaku shield (the hand-held version from 0083 and onward);

...and an arm weapon based on the Gouf Custom arm machinegun (which also looks like one of the left-hand energy blade weapons from Armored Core 2);

Working on a 1:1 Robetech Cyclone suit. Got the legs and arms done. Trying to have it all done by DragonCon 07.

The closest thing i have to an anime prop is my baby eagle pistol. It's not a genuine Jericho 941, but besides the name, its still the exact same gun Spike Spiegel uses. I tried to track down a posiedon grip to make it look the same but never ended up getting one. Excellent pistol though. I love it.

Nice to see the great work you guys have done.

Maybe you all can help me out with this one. I was thinking of making a prop from the anime of Lodoss War, and I'm looking for screen caps or "The Art of..."' type sketches/drawings of Woodchuck's (the thief character's) blade weapon - kind of like a large knife/dagger, but smaller than a short sword. I don't have the series myself, so I have nothing for reference, and my search-fu has turned up nothing. Any help or suggestions?

This might be a little out of the box... But how about the Steering Wheel to the Mach Five!?

With buttons that depress and everything, I think that'd be awesome!

I've played around with making auto-mail...

I totally love it and Al's armour too!!! Do you make this Ed's automail for customers too?? Because I'm really interested in it! Really great work!!!

Not been lucky enough to have any yet , love all the designs seburo stuff shirow did for appleseed and always wanted a CX and a gong to start off . Also planning to have a crack at this one from the 2004 movie, not sure of its designation though itlooks like a fore-runner to the MN 23 he did -

Be cool to know its actual designation if anyone knows :cool

all his designs are just too cool:thumbsup

I'm new to the forum, but a year ago when I was going to Otakon, I decided to make a Hollow mask. Not from a character, but of my own design. I got a lot of praise for it and people kept asking me how I did it.

My fav anime would be Akira! Would love to scratchbuild the laser gun one day..as Kaneda's bike would be too much of a challenge!

Hey.
I'm currently working on Cloud Strife's swords from Final Fantasy: Advent children.
You can see the progress here: Fusion Sword replica progress - a set on Flickr

Most of my prop projects focus around anime. My friends and I are big anime fans, and go to many conventions a year.

my prop building started with Hiei's sword from yuyu hakusho, and now i'm making another. I've also made Chrome's Trident from Hitman Reborn, and Death The Kid's guns from Souleater.

Currently i'm working on some Kingdom Hearts stuff, and Sailor moon thingies.

I have to admit, making anime props is a great challenge and to me, more fun then other props because of designs and physics defying features we all know and love about anime.
