I am in love. Vert, you are awesome. I've finished off the minor texture edits I had done, but looking at it, you were right. I don't really need to do anything. As for Ike, maybe I'll see if I can get someone to model my personal Ike design from when we first started getting these... *points at avatar for a tease*
I'm kinda interested in ike, but I think I'll do Chrom next. Obviously I'll need some help with textures.
The Falchion is looking awesome, and I have to thank you personally for doing these 3D models. Right now I'm working on a spirit Marth cosplay, which you're model is making things a lot easier with that venture. Also I've decided I'll try and craft the Awakening Falchion, so even these preview images alone are helping with that. So once again, thanks for all this amazing work guys. God, I'm so hyped up for her now, really looking forward to seeing this one. -By the way Shun, I'm more interested in your Ike design than the official DLC one. I don't mean to bash the guy who came up with DLC Ike's design... But to it just looks so.. meh.
Hm, you're working on a spirit marth cosplay? That's really interesting, this summer I'll make a new fire emblem costume as well, my problem is that I'm not sure which character I'll do. I have 3 options: the first one is Zelgius, which involves making a lot of armor. I could replicate the armor from his official radiant dawn model via papercraft with no real problems, since it just takes time and I have the whole summer to work on it. the real problem is that the armor is huge and I'd have trouble transporting it, which is what holds me back with that project.
The second option is Celice in his traditional design, since I have an identical wig I want to reuse. The problem is that... well, I have barely played seisen no keifu.
The last option, and probably my final decision is Chrom, I can reuse ike's wig, which lowers the cost. The only problem here would be the lack of references from the back, but it isn't such a great problem.
So, I'll start doing both a Chrom model and a Chrom costume right after I finish Lucina. This means that, like you, I'll have to craft the Awakening Falchion. I don't really know how to start doing it, maybe enterely from wood? I'm not really sure, if you think of something let me know, I'm very interested ^^
Some japanese guys cosplayed chrom and lucina, I found some progress pictures of them making the sword, but I don't know which materials they used. they sure made a fantastic job:
They uploaded a clearer picture of their version of Lucina, might be useful for you, though the costume could use some improvements:
However we can talk about this via PM, since it doen't have much in comon with brawl stuff XD
