Looks great. I would only say your torch may need some black washes to darken and dirty it up, and maybe dry brush edges to give it a dirtier appearance. Other than that, this is awesome!

Thanks.
Ok, it's too clean...
I'll remove that "clean" look with dry brush to weather it a bit and make it look dirtier

Finally someone who's made an accurate temple torch.

I've been wanting to make one for years but bamboo is just to expensive where I live.

Thanks a lot, mate
Will try to make it more accurate on Moviefreak's suggestion by weathering it with dry brush

It's funny.
I was just looking at some screen caps of Satipo's torch.
It changes from scene to scene in details.
Like they used both of the torches from his pack and possibly a few others.

Used smoke and dry brush (black) to make it look a bit more worn.

Perfection!!!!!

Sorry mate. Don't understand your question

It looks awesome. I think this is the first time I ever saw someone make that prop, so this may be the only replica out there.

 

[division 6]

Sorry mate. Don't understand your question

Are you going to make the Chachapoyan torch?

 

[MAKE BELIEVE]

Ah ok. Sorry.
Well wasn't going to, but now that you mention it...
Will have to watch the scene again carefuly and check it out (measurements, material, etc)
But it might be a good idea...
Thanks and sorry for not getting your question.

If you look closely you'll see that the dart has has a double barb on it.

I mentioned that over on COW many years ago.
Most people said I was a seeing things.

Thanks to Astyanax I was able to get a correct dart with a double barbed arrowhead
Also repainted the torch
