I finally got to complete my collection of these Soul Gems, which I posted about previously! I got them off AliExpress but they're hardly cheap at $40 apiece, lol (I did buy them at different times which helped). They're easily the highest-quality Soul Gem replicas I own, and I own a LOT of them.

thinking about how ballister's sword was given to him by ambrosius to aid him in becoming a knight and possibly as a token of friendship or love... and the director yoinked that shit and replaced it with a tool of destruction that almost cost ballister his life and resulted in ambrosius cutting off the arm he was going to wield that gift with

also let's not forget the director would've also killed ambrosius with ballister's actual sword if nimona hadn't gotten there first. she literally would've used something he gave ballister out of love to murder him.

man like. there's a 'g' turned to a 'b' carved on that sword. that's their names put together. that's their history together. that's nearly their whole lives spent together. loving each other. taken away and used as a weapon against both of them. this movie's great. i love this movie

I keep forgetting that I haven't finished putting pictures of all my prop replica projects onto Tumblr, so I figured I'd share one of my favourite projects to date: Recreating the 13 hour Lantern Clock that appears at the end of Jim Henson's Labyrinth.

This was a build that I was really proud to accomplish because it felt a bit like solving a puzzle, both figuratively and literally. I spent a lot of time trying to find existing items that I could cobble together to get the shapes I wanted. For instance the columns of the clock were made out of a wooden thimble, mini baseball bat, candle stick, a cake decorating column, and some o-rings.

Admittedly I was pretty close to chucking this project in the trash at a few points, mostly because I became convinced that it'd never look good. There's always a point with projects where they just look a little ugly, and it's sometimes very hard to tell if they're ugly because they're unfinished, or ugly because they are in fact ugly. Thankfully this project was in the former category, and it all came together eventually.

Other materials used in this project include foam core, some stick on decorative tiles from the dollar store, half of a fillable Christmas ornament, some EVA foam, and some wooden finials. I ended up getting some custom laser cut fretwork done for the top of the clock, and the details on the clock face were cut from vinyl.

I completed this project right around the time I started beefing up my photography skills, so I did a little photoshoot with this clock using some thrift store curtains and brick work made out of insulation foam. The 'floating' effect in the photo was achieved just by taking the photo at a slight tilt. Simple, but very effective!

Look. The design for the scythe is so cool, SO cool. She is gorgeous and dope as hell. But you want me to believe this bitch is ancient??

Thousands of years old????

This looks like a weapon an alien warrior race uses in a cheesy sci fi movie. And I say that with affection. Exasperated affection, but affection.

Also. I just. That's not what a scythe looks like.

That is not an agricultural tool, nor does it resemble a symbol of reaping souls. And nor is it a sickle for that matter (and a scythe and a sickle are NOT the same thing; though they are both centuries old agricultural tools, the sickle is one-handed, C shaped, and has come to be a symbol of the agricultural class in post WWI Russia.

A scythe is a two-handed agricultural tool with a curved blade that is a symbol of death, not as a weapon to bring about death, but carried by Death to collect souls after death occurs, to reap them, as people used to use it to reap crops (tho in mythology and history they have been used as weapons, bc pointy metal hurty and also symbolism)).

But anyway yeah that's not what a scythe looks like!! It's an axe with a stake taped to the other end!!!!! In conclusion it fucks but the way they try to describe it makes me angy. I love her. Her lore is just problematic but it's not her fault, she did nothing wrong <3 but it does annoy me when I think about it. In conclusion (let the weird black goo rock symbolize the bad lore):

And it’s done. The Einhorn Magnum from Signalis (based on the Chiappa Rhino)

3D Print file by Dominiclarner on Cults3d

It’s very hard to make out many details in the game, due to it’s very stylized PlayStation style graphics, so there was a lot of creative liberty taken here. I adjusted some of the print’s details to fit more in line with the original Chiappa Rhino, like the cylinder release and safety switch.

Overall, I decided to make it look more grimy and dirty than I otherwise would have, because Signalis as a whole has a very decayed and eroded theme going on, so I tried to represent that in a IRL object.

The result is a(n admittedly a bit weird) combination of cartoony and weathered.

Hey guys, I was just wondering if anyone would be interested in buying one of these first blade replicas or a keychain version if I were to make more and sell them. They are 3d printed and hand assembled, sanded and painted by me. Honestly I'm broke as hell rn and don't really have the time/ability to reliably get a decent job right now due to other commitments but I do have time to mess around with art in the quiet hours of the night 😛

I think at most I'd probably charge 45 for the life sized plus shipping and maybe 10-15 plus shipping for the keychains just because of filament, paint, sandpaper costs ect. Plus it takes about 16 hours to print one, and that's if it works out completely the first try.

If anyone thinks that would be something they are interested in, just let me know, as well as if you have any questions or comments on the pricing or anything else. I'm aware they aren't perfect but I thought I might as well try lol

Someone in my LiS group made a replica of the robot's assembly manual.

A piece of Vengeance arrived today.

here's another silly little piece I made for Mysterium later this month— a handmade replica of Saavedro's hammer from Myst 3! the head is made of carved fursuit foam, so it's soft & totally harmless; even a pretty hard swing only hurts about as much as getting hit with a pillow. And the best part—

—it squeaks. 🤣

I'm excited (And slightly terrified) to post the project that's been occupying most of my spare time for the last few months, filming a very in-depth tutorial on how to make one of my Firey Plush toys for Youtube! I have been wanting to make this video a reality for a few years now, so it's sorta surreal to finally see it finally complete. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little nervous about the quality of this video, I'm very much an amateur at sewing after all. But if an amateur like me can make this cool plush, then surely the majority of folks out there can make it too!

Hopefully this'll be the first of a good few prop replica tutorials I film for Youtube, but I'm gonna reward myself with a bit of a break before I even think about recording something again.

I started recreating John Winchesters journal after getting the journal from conquest I wanted to make it more authentic so here are some of my favorite hand written pages I’ve done so far! My main sources are screenshots from episodes and I’ve made some of my own pages such as the cursed objects page, hoodo, salt and Samuel occult from the Alex Irvine book “John Winchester’s journal” and David Reeds “Bobby Singer’s Guide to hunting”! I have some more pages to share and will continue to update on this project :) it’s been such a relaxing and fun hobby!
