Lidia's Sword III - Finished

Lidia's sword's "Starijion" pronounced Star-E-yan, finally finished! Pretty fun project this one was, another large one too. Required a few re-work issues on the initial paint job, luckily nothing to major that effected the production time.

The guards are functional and retract for storage system, though I don't have that piece made yet >_> someday maybe... The sword is pretty heavy, Lidia can still pose and hold with it, but it is a bit to heavy for some gestures and poses, like a straight arm holding. Not to big of a problem for me though.

Lidia is definitely ready to dive into any battle now! Think she's looking forward to our next road trip...

Discord and Lidia

Seems like it's been non stop Lidia stuff lately. Some may be wondering what Hrist has been up to. She did recently have a photo-shoot with a rather sassy Miku. More news on that hopefully in the coming week or so.

Fabulous Fur

You know sometimes you get a crazy idea, and just have to do it? o_O Pretty much what happened with this quick project, I wound up making a small vest, part of another concept outfit I have going on. .. This was a good chance to experiment around with fur, and I had a lot of fun with it, vs the last time I played with fur.... and hated it. After finishing this project, I want to make Hrist a nice fur cloak.
But I better be careful.... Fur, gold, and embroidery could get ugly real fast.

I plan on adding a small cape/tail like thing to it, wasn't happy with my sketches for it still.

Lidia's Sword II

Last of the parts arrived, and final prep work has begun on finishing up Lidia's sword! Pretty excited about this one, I know I am about all my projects >_> but it's ones extra special for me, haha.
Fun stuff, however since it's pretty solid and not a lot of detailed pieces, painting this might be a pain.
Time will tell...

Story got a bit longer then I thought, so I decided to break it up into two parts. I'll be posting the other half in a week or so.

Lidia's Sword I

Main base to Lidia's sword arrived, need to wait on the other pieces to arrive, apparently there's been a delay at Shapeways for the side handles... which are small, and delayed currently. The rest of the blades been shipped, should arrive some time next week.

Bit of a side by side comparison using my crappy phone camera.

Ash's Sword Complete

Rather fun project, and everything went pretty smooth! Tried out a few new things making this, and it seemed to help my workflow a bit more. Different paints and sealers that is.

The swords about two inches bigger then Hrist's not to bad, and it's still pretty light weight enough that Lidia can hold it one handed.

It is dwarfed by Lidia's sword though. I received the first of 4 parts of her sword... >_> it's pretty big That'll be my next project once all the parts do arrive though.
