I haven't decided for when, but I'm definitely going to need Sode no Shirayuki eventually for my Rukia cosplay.
I've seen tutorials of how to make cardboard swords, but I don't have the dexterity to pull that off.
Any ideas?
(My last resort will be Legos. I've seen a Lego Zabimaru before, It's not impossible!)
go for the cardboard. You just might be surprised at how well it turns out
I made a Hyourinmaru (Toushiro's Zanpakuto) out of cardboard, and while not the greatest attempt, it still came out looking enough like a sword that I was happy with it. I just have to remember, in any subsequent attempts, to smooth out the hot glue with extra heat ^^;
