Good Morning 405th,
I come to you with a question on prop design. I actually am hoping to get some advice as to how I can go about creating a weapon belonging to Strider Hiryu (Capcom Fame: Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3, Strider etc...) I was hoping to get some direction as to which method maybe some of you would use to create this weapon. I have worked with Pepakura before to create a Halo Recon helm out of cardstock but the helm got damaged before I could move on to the next steps so I have not worked with pepakura since.
For this, I was thinking I could use either card stock, EVA foam, or cardboard and layer it... use PVC pipe for the handles and then add bondo? Then sand and paint... I think that would work if I have the right idea.
I was hoping someone could refrence some videos or give me some tips as to how I can do this, I don't feel that the design is complicated enough to warrent asking someone to do a pepakura model or something... It's basiclly a triangle on two handles right?
I have included some images below.
