It is a Kama, and the flash was off in this shot as I wanted the saber to show up.

I'll add some more pics soon.

That is fantastic!! I really like the tone of black that you used. I think that using a high gloss black wouldn't look as good, but that satin finish is perfect!!

Are planning on doing any runs of the armor sets? If so what would ballpark a timeline and cost to be?? I would definately be up for one, my wife might not agree....but that's alright! LOL!

Good Luck.

At least your helmet will keep your head dry while you're sleeping outside :P.

You guys!!

No actually my wife is pretty supportive about the costuming/trooping. My whole thing is just to make sure that I keep the delicate balance of holing up in my basement 'til the wee hours of the morning hopped up on caffeine and spending time with my family.

Actually, I won't be ready to start a Shadow Guard for a while anyway, I have a TX kit that is begging to be assembled. The helmet is about 10%, and the rest is at 0%.


Besides, my dog doesn't even have a doghouse......I'de be sleeping on the lawnmower out in the shed!

I really wasn't planning on doing any runs of anything, simply due to time constraints.

I will post more pics etc once the proper channels have had a look at what I have done.

No trying to be cagey here, I just want to make sure I don't need to tweak things just yet before posting more pics.

For the paint - I went satin black krylon fusion - with about 4-5 applications of dullcote to give it that look - looks much better in person - then again I am biased :)

I tried to make sure all the details as possible are there - including the two groove lines in the belt.
