Building a Steel Whipsword (Pacific Rim) - Craft & Tell
Thank you and welcome to all the new subscribers - I hope you will enjoy this one!! About a year ago, I took a break from cosplay and I made something of my own design, inspired by the movie Pacific Rim. This video is about the result of this project - an animatronic, steel whipsword that you can wear on your arm. I hope you like it -- and thank you for your time! ❤️
I FINALLY finished my Pharah shoulder armor! This cosplay is of her Aviator skin. Animatronics, LEDs and mounts took a lot of time, but I was especially attentive to the paint job, since this piece of the costume is going to be at eye-level. I mainly used an airbrush, but I weathered it with a regular brush (so it would look more used and “3D”). I programmed the LEDs to animate in the same style as the leg armor rocket-pods, too. ?
Let me know what you think!! ?❤️ What would you like to see more of??

This is how I designed and built my living-room friendly, collapsible, heavy duty squat rack. I used scrap metal that I had laying around the workshop, and with loads of welding I think I succeeded! Let me know what you think! :D
No affiliate links this time guys, not much to market in this video haha

CosCrane - is a motorized floor standing personal elevation device that I built for use in photo and video projects, primarily for more realistic Cosplay content. In this video I cover how I built it, how greenscreens work, and some video compositing basics. Some things you can't CGI - that's when you need practical effects - and with some editing and CosCrane you can fly or levitate just like in the movies! Please let me know what you think in the comments down below.
