I want to make a sword for My Tenshi Cosplay but Im not sure on how to do so.


The one on the left is a sprite from the game and the one on the right is Fanart

you could carve a piece of wood out

Depending on the thickness you can just use a bokken and paint it.

Omg that's so fuzzy I can't even tell what it is....
I could probably make it if I knew what it was XD

I would carve wood. That is what I did for one of my swords

and i attached a nice pic of touhou...fanart w/ sword? but good nonetheless..

as for making, uhm i would  buy a cheap plastic sword @ a second hand store...like goodwill and spraypaint it. Fluorescent would be cool... too bad no black light dance party. lol.

good luck!

OH!
You can use one of feather's sword making tutorials out of cardboard 8D
Look on the cosplay help topic for them or look on cosplay.com
even though it's cardboard it turns out amazingly!

id try out the painted boken idea, they are really pretty cheap. i remember a while ago i got one on amazon for like 10 bucks, plus paint and the so-little time spent making it...its a good way to go.
