Needing Scythe Advice
Jul. 12th, 2007 04:29 pmI wasn't going to post any progress pictures on this costume as I wanted to wait til the con but I need some advice on this...

Haha, you can see my feet in the picture. XP
Anyways, on the shape...its kinda fugly and the "blade" part is pretty short. So wondering if I should make those spikes under it shorter? Or should I try to add another piece to the blade even though it will probably very obviously look like more than one piece?
Annnnd, this is the top piece, should I still make the bottom piece which is basically the same thing but smaller? 'Cause I was going to but now I'm not sure 'cause I'm not sure if I'd be able to handle the scythe with both pieces on. It might break while traveling it and it'd be harder to put down when I'm not holding it. But at the same time, it'd be more accurate and not many people do both sides.
Give me advice! 'Cause I'm running out of time here and need to get this done so I can go back to working on Kanda.
