Kind of Nervous posting my first build. I've never actually built anything outside of a sculpture of Priss from Bubblegum Crisis in High School. I hope you will be kind and provide as much creative feedback as possible!
About this project:
Ever since I was a kid, I've always wanted to own the sword of Omens from the Cartoon Thundercats. The Sword of Omens has always been, at least to me one of the most beautifully designed swords I have ever seen!
I am a HUGE Conan the Barbarian Fan and BOTH the Atlantean Swords and the Fathers Swords are incredible designs in and of themsleves but The Sword of Omens is one that I knew I had to have some day.
Last year, stumbled upon Jeffery Robinson's Amazing video where he created his own LEATHAL Father's Sword. After watching his sculpting techniques, I knew this was the artist who could bring the Sword of Omens to life!
I contacted Jeffery, agreed on a prices for his services and 6 months Later to my JOY! I received this:
I basically fainted first, then when my friends woke me up, I was in heaven! A HUGE Shout out goes to Jeffery Robinson for his amazing craftsmanship and help with this project. None of this would be possible without him.
I of course then had a party to celebrate the occasion.
It was then that I was presented with a problem. All of my other swords were hung on various walls in my house, they all have their own silent mystique about them, but this is THE SWORD OF OMENS we're talking about! This is NO wall hanger.
So I decided to build a stand for The Mystic Sword.
Over the next few posts, I'll explain how I built my sword stand, where I got my inspiration for the build, links to the VERY helpful youtube videos and contributors who assisted me in the build, and what I intend to do with the stand other than leaving it in my basement to gather mold for authenticity ;-)
Here is a sneak peek for everyone on baited breath (not that anyone is actually reading this mind you ;-).
