The result of this really simple work looked pretty nice already!ītw: If you also want to add some lights in your projects, check out my LED book for some helpful tutorials! Then I wrapped over half a meter of LED strip in packing material and just hot glued it on the back of the blade. Since I don’t own a pressure chamber the resin cured out with countless tiny air bubbles in it, but I guess this look fits pretty nice for the frosty design of Shadowmourne.Īfterwards I simply glued some paper to the back to spread the upcoming LED light better. The build was super wobbly and sensitive but strong enough to be filled with some Crystal Clear resin from Smooth-On. To glue all parts together, I used simply some translucent tape. So I printed out the model (isolated it from the rest of the axe first in a 3D program) and transferred the pattern to a 2mm thin translucent PVC foil. I usually prefer to start with the most difficult part of a prop – in this case the front blade, which I wanted to completely illuminate. To make everything a bit more simple I asked a friend to get rid of the skull on the back and front of the axe. This little tool allows you to edit and lay out a 3D model and print the surfaces out on paper. For the base I exported the original WoW 3D file with the WoW Modelviewer to a program called Pepakura Designer.
