Heres what I just started on, i need to work on the details a bit, but recognizable thus far I think.

very nice. Is that the Japanese version or a custom piece?

Cheers,

marc

 

[TimDrakeRobin]

custom piece. Made from a silver Trequerta pendant.
THE JAPANESE HAVE A VERSION?
WHY... WHY do they get the good stuff???? WHYY..

 

[TFrosst]

Very nice. Is that the right size? I can't quite remember but I think the movie one was a bit larger. Please correct me if i'm wrong.

 

[TimDrakeRobin]

Im sure it was probably larger, but I have yet to track down the proper size.

i know the "pretty close" feeling pretty well :lol

this is my latest (and honestly, first "completed") prop from constantine. balthazars coin. actual old coin, so i kinda cheated . i may "highlight" with a silver acrylic wash to bring out the letters and engravings. damned old coin is HEAVY though. scary heavy. id hate to be back in the old jesus days and have a bag of these things to carry around.

next up is going to be some laser engraved crosses on some christmas ornaments. i caught the movie the other day (again), and it looks like they were engraved or frosted on there for the "holy water grenades".

next paycheck, holy shotgun to repaint

i blame you for sucking me into this particular movie prop collection btw :lol

the cross's on the ornaments were actually just white out tape that they cut into points at the ends. You can really tell in this shot. Nifty stuff. lol.

makes my life easier :lol

the shot i was thinking of was when he was crawling around in hell, and has the grenade in his hand. its a pretty big close up, and the cross looks translucent, like frosted glass. might have been a CGI effect though.

i still gotta track down some kinda lid top for those ornaments though. maybe some kinda cheap ebay vial screw top.....

i dig the amulet though. i thought it was silver in the movie though? (yes, as often as i have seen this movie, i still dont pay attention to the props :lol)

[TimDrakeRobin]

The amulet in the movie is gold and terquoise.
