It's been a long time coming, but I've finally finished Benihime.
It's made primarily from plywood and balsa wood, with red cord for the knot, red string for the tassle and craft foam for the detail as the bottom of the hilt.
Painted with a combination of spray paint and enamel paint, and finished off with spray on clear varnish.


I'd like to thank Nic from studiohybrid.org [link] and :iconchioky: for ideas and advice.

Ah it's beautiful. I want to use the plans from that site as well. I just want to do one thing different however. I want to get tsuka-ito for the handle and wrap it. Beautiful. Very beautiful.

How long did it take you to make the whole thing?

It probably took about 2-3 days to make, across about 6 months.
