Hello Steemians! I'm drawingwithflare.
I'm back and today I came back to crafts and made a lifesize Blackwatch Genji Shuriken this is part one cause I didn't have enough tools to finish it so I'll be posting a follow up.
In this craft, I used 100cw and 280cw sandpaper, glue and superglue, utility knife, vice, pencil and eraser, black and red paint, and ofcourse the popsicle sticks.
So first I outlined and planned the look of the board by drawing it in a piece of paper.
Then I cut them out.
Then I cut three different popsicle sticks in half. I numbered them so I know which is a partner of one.
And then, using some superglue 15 and 2 halves together. I did the same alternating pattern like with the surfboard but in 4×3.
And after that, I traced the templates I created earlier in the popsicle. I also cut it in the parts where it has to be so I could get all three of the blades equal.
I also traced the template for the middle piece that hold the blades together.
And using a hacksaw, I cut the pieces in the right size so I wouldn't do much sanding and trimming later.
Then, using my utility knife, I trimmed the pieces for sanding. It made a big mess of mini wood pieces that I kept in a plastic bag for future unknown uses.
And then, I checked if the pieces will look good ones it's done.
It's already past 1 and I was only able to sand one of them and even that isn't finished yet.
So I decided to call it a day. My hand hurts bad and I think it can use a bit of rest. I will finish it tomorrow I promise but for now, I'll take a good long nap.
