The Order 1886 Grenade WIP

[wisemonk5421]

So I started working on the grenade shown in the trailer and concept art for the upcoming "The Order 1886" video game. I love the style so I had to start making stuff from it. I am starting with the grenade and I plan to make the combo gun after. I first found a blueprint online done by Landstalker Props. I assume the blueprint was designed after early released concept art, because it differed slightly from a more recent hi-res pics I was able to acquire. But it was a great starting point. I uploaded some progress I have made on this. It is made from MDF and poplar with an oak handle.

Nice lathe skills. I keep trying to figure out how to do the handle and hilt without a lathe.
By the way, this looks like a really massive piece, about sixteen inches or so. Is that right? Do you feel like it's oversized or just about right? It's hard to tell scale with the limited times it's shown up in game play previews from Ready at Dawn, so I was basing my build on the early 20th century German "potato masher" grenade dimensions.

Sorry for not replying sooner. I never got a message on someone replying to this post. I scaled this piece based on screenshot take while it was hanging from the loop on the back of their belt. It seem like it is just right in size. It definitely is big though only slightly larger than a standard German potato masher style grenade.
