First Shot at Pepakura (Finished Kunai Dagger) (Pic Heavy)

[Insanemind]

This is my FIRST attempt at pepakura and modeling. I eventually want to make a full suit of armor, but thought I would start small first. This is my Kunai Dagger (Ninja Dagger) that I created. Any advice or feedback would be great! Thanks to everyone who helped me in answering my questions on this forum! You were a huge help.

Nice detailing on that dagger. One question tho... Did you fill it with Rondo or foam or anything for strength or did you just resin the outside and bondo that? It is a small prop so strength shouldn't be too big an issue in any case.

I put casting resin inside of the dagger to reinforce it. Poured inside, swirled it around, and put three coats of casting resin inside. Its pretty strong.

Also good song that inspired me to make the dagger:
Hoodie Ninja - Mc Chris
From the new honda civic commercial.

careful with the real looking stuff, police take a dim view. basically keep them out of public unless it is an official event or they might take it, they have no sense of "wow that's cool" ;p
