Been a while I don't post in here.
Being a while I finished this painting as well.

Some aspects didn't turned out well, but all-in-all I am very happy with it.

This is taking me forever.
And though there are several things I'm not quite happy with, overral I AM very happy with the progress. In no small amount because it is turning far better than I thought myself capable of.

Started a Writing Challenge.

Objective is to try to write 1000 words per day during lent (not including ash wednesday and good friday).

The very superficial idea is that a group of people will attempt to kill a god and one of them yields a gunblade.

I got 1001 today.

I think I'm going to post a couple more photos of the #gunblade build process so to keep them together and not flood this account too much, some of them will only go on Pixelfed. You can follow me on there, too, and your client might even filter out duplicates: https://pixelfed.social/WildRikku

Also working on a series of blog posts and a video, but that might take somewhat between two months and two years.

Had a friend over who is convinced that with sophisticated metal work, we can make the #gunblade transform automatically so that by moving just one part, all the parts move, or even by pressing a button. Will investigate possibilities now. Also, I discovered RWBY / Ruby Rose's scythe x shotgun x sniper rifle and I absolutely need it. #cosplay #FinalFantasy #RWBY #mechanics
Oh, and I would like to mention that I initially had a "no 3D printing" approach to #cosplay because I wanted to do it in an accessible way, but I changed my mind and only did so for the #gunblade as for the outfit it's pretty obvious you could just use other fasteners / decoration elements instead of the 3D printed ones.
Anyone recognize these? I figured that my premium compass has a bracket for tools instead of the usual pencil lead so I could use that to hold my crafting knife and cut a nice circle (needed a really sharp blade, I couldn't even see it afterwards). The rest was cut through paper with the template printed on and then the magic of heating the foam. #Gunblade #Cosplay #FFXIII
Alright so I'm working on the engravings for the #Gunblade and while I am getting better cutting shapes into the foam, I can't get a perfect circle. Of course I can't, that's a really hard thing to do. So I'm thinking of using a round piece of metal because I already know that pressing heated metal into foam works great. Problem is: It needs to be REALLY thin, like 0.1-0.2 mm. Where do I get a 0.2 mm thick round piece of metal with a diameter of about 2 cm? #Cosplay #DIY #Crafting

So here's a major update on the #gunblade. :) The colors do sooo much but also I finally got all the parts correct so that they all have the right position relative to each other - in sword and gun form! Here are most of them assembled.

Materials in next toot. #cosplay #FFXIII #Lightning
