Here is a picture taken by Tenhaku Photographie (https://www.facebook.com/TenhakuPhotographie/) during the glass armor photoshoot.
Hello !
Several months after building my glass armor (thread: https://www.therpf.com/showthread.php?t=268251), I'm finally making a matching glass weapon for a possible photoshoot.
A picture of said armor (taken by Elkashir-san)
I made better straps since the picture was taken (out of faux leather and metal buckles).
This version is from a mod, I totally forgot which one (it might be "Immersive Weapons", I'm not sure, I'll try to check), it's basically the vanilla bow with extra blades (which look like they were taken from the battleaxe model).
It looks like this:
And here is the quiver:
I'm building this out of EVA foam (density 100kg/m3, thicknesses 10,5 and 3mm), with a multilayer pipe as a core for support.
After making my pattern (by using a screenshot as a layer in GIMP and redrawing the main lines), I started making the glass blades, which looked like this at first:
I started detailling them a bit:
And I also made a sort of "size test" on the floor...the white tube is the multilayer pipe I was talking about.
I only started this yesterday so there isn't much to see for the moment, right now I'm working on the limbs.

. What sort of paints are you planning on using to prevent the bow from flaking after bending so much? (Sorry if this was answered and I missed it)
