At first I didn't really like the idea of replacing Mjolnir ... But after seeing STORMBREAKER in action I fell in love with the axe/hammer hybrid.
It is a devastating weapon and one worthy of building.
I've seen many builds and locations that sell 3D printed versions ... All look great but a lot that I have seen are either not true 1:1 scale or have a curved handle with rope wraps on mostly because of the HOT TOYS early release figure and such used as reference images.
With the film now out there are a lot more reference images out there and I wanted to build as close as I could a true replica.
Luckily thanks to SKS Props we have access to a great step by step guide and video tutorial which I know will really help with this build.
i have used a reference image I found to be able to create a 1:1 scaled template, and trust me STORMBREAKER is BIG!
I'll be collecting materials and starting this build soon, so watch this space.
here are the reference images I will be working from if they help anyone else:
This is the image I used to create the template, I scaled the image to exactly 6ft 2 which is how tall I am and according to Google so is Chris Hemsworth. (I thought he was 6ft 4 anyway what's two inches...)
And here are are the other reference images I will be working from and the printed template to give you an idea of its size!
