you might want to cut out that visor. You will have a heck of a time trying to walk around.

looks good. What kind of paint did you use on the pike and didn you seal it with anything?

I used Krylon, metallic for wood, wicker, metal and more. Color Matte Aluminum but it still turned out super shiny. I didn't seal it no, should I?
The pool stick, emitter, and pommel had a nice sanding before I sprayed it so it should hold pretty well I reckon?

Very cool. Take a cloth and rub it back and forth on the silver part, see if any rubs off. The sealer is more for your cloak than the health of the pike. Just be warned that most sealers really dull the silver color. I personally used
Future Floor Wax as my sealer and I loved it.

Good tip! I will try that. I don't want the silver to rub off on my cloak lol
