I couldn’t find any threads for this but I wanted to make a copy of the short spear Killmonger uses for the last half of Black Panther. I’m having trouble finding good pictures with detail so I can figure out the dimension.

this picture is the clearest I’ve found but obviously nothing in the picture for scale.

I know Michael B Jordan is 6 feet tall so my best guess so far is the spear is about 2 1/2- 3 feet long overall and the blade being about 10-12 inches long.

If anyone has any input for good pictures I would appreciate it. My current plan is to carve the blade from clay or wood and then make molds and cast it in resin and use a traditional African hardwood for the haft.

Thanks in advance.

see. you. space. cowboy.
 
Although it is a "standard" and not a hard and fast rule, if the background of your image is a step, using a height of 7.5 inches and depth of 11 inches might help you compare and validate your dimension estimate.
 
smithjohnj thanks that’s actually a really good tip, I should be able to pivot the spear in the pic and get a scale off that step height. That’s super helpful thank you.

Now I just need to find some more reference material I think there may be some carving on the blade or haft, they may just be a rough part.
 
I'm currently working on this 3D print of Killmonger's spear, it prints in 2 pieces and is 15 and a half inches total for the spear head itself.

The model is pretty spot on as far as i can tell.
I'm almost done with the filling and sanding stage of the build.
