Re: My Prop Replica Collection - New Arrival - Thundercats
You know, every now and again, I plan on doing something cool, and then I go off and do something stupid.
This is one of those times :lol
With more than one Sword of Omens from Thundercats being built at the moment, I figured I'd embark on one myself.
Not scratch built though. I wanted to buy me a sort of 'decent' one from the net, and fully intended to jazz it up substantially.
My mind raced with images of spending a few days stripping paint, dremelling bits out, putting in crystals, reshaping some parts etc etc.
Once I got what I ordered, I was about to take the first step out of the door with the sword, heading to the hobby shop to buy the right size crystals.
Then I froze, went to prop room, put it down, and just looked at it for around 15 minutes.
Whatever was I thinking :lol !
This is supposed to be a replica from a
cartoon show :facepalm :lol !
And as such, it should look the part !
For crying out loud, they don't even draw it the same every time :lol, it looks fake :lol etc etc.
Yep, its a cartoon :lol
So I boldly took the decision to not touch the one I got, and display it as is :lol
Now someone please say that it looks like it came out of a cartoon :lol
.... errrrrr, the point exactly :lol
