Cosplay Help! - Next year, I’m going to cosplay White Rock Shooter from the Black Rock Shooter video game. [Google her]. The prop I’ll be making is just the scythe, the rest I’m buying. I’m planning on making it about 6ft tall, and the scythe area will be about 3 1/2 feet long. I’d like the handle to be sturdy so it won’t break easily, but the scythe area I would like to be light weight. Although, this will be my first time creating a weapon, so I was wondering what materials I’ll need to build it~

For the handle portion, get a wooden dowel from a hardware store. It will add necessary /comfortable weight and I’d use a foam base and maybe paper clay over it for the scythe head if you want it to be really 3 dimensional, or a piece of thin wood if you have access to a bandsaw to cut the shape.
