Energy Sword Fx Demo Vid

[thatdecade]

This is my favorite prop and has been finished for months now, but recently it was pointed out to me that there never was a good vid showing off the final product.

Till now. enjoy

The only thing not demonstrated is the flicker lighting effect. I turned the flicker effect off because the vibration motor creates interference. You can see the flicker effect in an older Vid from Sean.

Crap why do I always have bad luck? (I am on my PSP = no flash player = no videos = failz)

A few months, finished in time for last year's dragoncon.

OH MY GOD! That thing is 100% sick! Defiantly the best I've seen! (Out of like... 2? )



All you need now to complete the set is an Elite costume. This would go great with that Anamatronic Elite posted a while back.



Awesome work! Looking forward to the next project



EDIT: Why is this in the noob forum???

OMG, That is amazing I cant wait to see what you do with the new AR/BR ammo counter.

Quick question, what are the dimensions of the display on the new ammo counter?

Quick question, what are the dimensions of the display on the new ammo counter?

Off topic: The new counter will use the same display as my current ammo counter, 0.56 inches.
