    Staff of Gandalf the Grey (FotR) Rivendell to Moria V.2

    Hi Jreeveo, yes, I first used a wooded dowel and hot glued a wire armature into holes to rough out the shape of the crown of the staff. I then cut the electronics into the wooden dowel and then used Super Sculpey to create the branches of the staff. A lot has happened since I started this...

    Staff of Gandalf the Grey (FotR) Rivendell to Moria V.2

    Hello all, So I've been working on an updated and improved version of this staff. Aside from more accurate shaping and structure I am making this version light up with a removable crystal. Note the crystal in the pictures is an earlier model. The master is currently in the mold awaiting new...

    Absolutely exceptional! What was your process for creating the bow?

    UC Orcrist: "It is here."

    Thanks for posting this. Mine is also in transit. However being right on the cost of CT we're under a bit of snow right now. UC reports their version is 38 3/4" and Noble reports theirs is 39 1/5" Anyone have info on production used measurements?

    LOTR Haldirs' elven archer build.

    My credit card is ready at your whim. Definitely one of my favorite costumes from the trilogy.

    Which mesh material is that? Is that the athletic mesh?

    Re: Gandalf the Grey: Moria Staff in Clay Unfortunately the top piece is so complicated that casting it is nearly impossible without cutting it up into pieces. As for the crystal I'm not sure if I want to put one in yet or not. If I happen across one I might pop it in but otherwise probably not.

    Re: Gandalf the Grey: Moria Staff in Clay Here's just a few new pictures of my progress. Everything is shaped up a bit better and cleaned up quite a bit. I'm thinking it's just about finished. Enjoy

    Who has the creepiest prop/replica? Please show it.

    I have a full size Billy from Saw with tricycle. Sadly he's packed up in a box in the basement due to lack of space.

    My first ever decent paint job.WOW!

    Paint can easily make or break a great prop. Don't downplay your work, you did a great job.

    Re: Gandalf the Grey: Moria Staff in Clay Well, with the prospect of having to cut each of the branches off to cast them, and the potential trouble of the pieces not lining back up correctly, not to mention the cost of all the molding materials (given I have no experience with that); it would...

    Staff of Gandalf the Grey (FotR) Rivendell to Moria V.2

    Re: Gandalf the Grey: Moria Staff in Clay Yeah I was worried that I would have to cut off the branches to cast it. I still have a lot of cleaning up to do on it before I get to that point so I have time to consider if I want to do that or not. Oh and thanks for the compliments.

    Staff of Gandalf the Grey (FotR) Rivendell to Moria V.2

    So I've decided to share something I've started working on which is Gandalf's second staff that he has in Moria. This is actually the first time I'm using clay to sculpt anything. I just moved to Connecticut for graduate school and I no longer have a garage to work on fiberglass for pep...
