So, last year, I attended the Wales Comic Con in Wrexham as Edward Nygma. This year, I intend to go again, this time as Edward Nygma's future persona...the Riddler.
One aspect of the Riddler that no cosplayer should be without is his signature cane. Next week, I intend on getting to work on building this prop. Now, this is my first time actually building a prop this big, so I'm not expecting miracles.
However, I would like some advice. I want this cane to last, so what is the best wood to use? I have an idea on what colour scheme I would like (a silver question mark with a black cane as a throwback to the Animated Series counterpart), so what would be the best way to varnish the cane so the colour stays?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated - thank you for looking!
