To progress! To a productive year!

Yes, I have actually made some progress. The axe is now sturdy, but I left the handle area free of fiber and because of that it bends a bit when swung...don't know if that's a good idea though, just a hunch.

Practical things: the weather in Finland is crap. Either it's freezing, raining, snowing or all those at the same time and resin doesn't cure very well in that kind of an environment. So I made a box for it, out of foam sheets and a small heater inside. While it works marvelously it's seriously not-too-optimal, so as a proper start for a more productive new year I'll built a proper, bigger, better box this week (if my budget holds) and it can then also be used to handle the foaming that'll come next.

Heyo, update.

So what's new? The bendy part down there and the top spike, both secured to the handle. I'll see what I can do about the fiberglassing...it's quite cold and snowy outside and that stuff can't really be used inside my apartment unless I want to faint or something.

Quiet again

Trying to get a job, three gameprojects at the same time, the axe shall be done before next year.

That, is a promise.

I do.

Intermission

Can't work on the axe at the moment, my drills are in another place.

Instead, I'll try to finish this 3D model.

Yeah, making two projects at the same time is always a good idea.

Stalker Exoskeleton armor

About three hours in the clock. Making an armor for a friend, to be used in a Stalker themed airsoft game.

That’s what it’s based on, with some modifications like the neck-protector added. Trying to make this quick and painless, just do it and stop worrying :)

First post.

First post for this blog at least. I have my Ragna the Bloodedge cosplay still on the way, but apparently I just can't get myself to continue that...so here's a blog for random other things I build when I procrastinate about others :d
