The first advert is from 1961, and here's a comparison of the different colour combos for that 45 model if any of them look like yours

Similar to this one perhaps? Says it came with Quink ink cartridge and looks similar except for the gold piece.

Piece for a clanmate as a gift to his buddy, featuring his cute kitty.

This was def not an opportunity to get a never-ending supply of cat pictures as "research" >:)

This girlie is going to get her own post, but here are the (almost final) pictures of her. She's been to several conventions and adored by the very sweet props staff.

Black Talon in all her glory! My favourite sword in Destiny.

And finally, using a "pop-socket" resin mold and the metallic purple paint, I made the circular insert for the interior part of the blade.

Now that rainbow handle wasn't the only part needing vinyl. I used silver vinyl on the outer edge of the blade. (Do not use iron-on foil for this, I learned the hard way)
February 23, 2025 at 9:11 PM
I took a break for my sanity to try out a cool metallic purple paint, and painted one side of the inner blade with it in gradients. A subtle effect, but turned out great!

Next, the finicky shiny rainbow vinyl. Still my greatest struggle, it took a lot of patience and glue to get the vinyl to wrap around the complicated wing shape. The flatter parts of the handle were easier to attach vinyl to.

All these layers meant the edge of the sword was uneven and full of gaps. A hot glue gun helped fill all that space and make a flat surface all along the edge.

Hey guys listen I've heard great things about the new Nether activity in Destiny but I think I'm doing something wrong? Any advice appreciated :(

I have no explanation for this one, except that flaunting your stunning legs over your murderous fathers grave is correct and valid.

I spent several days carving out the middle layer of corrugated cardboard and putting in as many popsicle sticks as I could fit, then adding two layers of paper to smooth it out. It was decently strong with the sticks, so I glued down 10 of the layers (5 on each side).

The progress on Black Talon is going strong, and so will this thread about it. It's been going much better than I hoped, so here's some progress shots.
