This is the second keyblade I ever tried to make. It's made copletely out of cardboard from: old moving boxes, cerial boxes, and an empty wrapping-paper tube. It's very light [for something so dark :> ] and makes a cool swishy sound when you swing it real fast. :)

It was part of last-year's Hallowene costume... but it was the only part of it that was really any good...

Hehe-- yeah, I still do costumes on Hallowene. In fact, I'd be crazy if I didn't!!
I never really cared much for the candy... I'd take a sweet keyblade over a sweet edible any day!! *squeak* ^_^


(ps) That's my hand just so ya know. :)

blind_strangerThey're closed. I take real special care to do that, cause "3D" objects need to look cool /from ALL sides/. *realizes should have photographed the keyblades edge-on & end-on, too* 0_o

Yeah... I think they're called PBC-pipes. I got a coupple of those--- my mom /would've/ thrown them out too (cause me'n my bros here kept crack'n eachother on the head with them. T_x) but we needed them for yardwork.

I actually /did/ come up with a design that uses /nothing but/ them, a couple years ago, but it would be /so/ much work to build that I never made any. Aaaand, they wouldn't really be as spiffy-look'n. And they'd be REALLY heavy, and probably, even ACTUALLY useable as weapons!!! 0.o

I'll post the sketch I did, 'soon as I find it... *shifty eyes* ...it's in an old binder somewhere... -o_-o o-_o-


Roxas?? It's just the Organization coat & a better way to make the beads (than the way I already have posted e_e). 'Can be /any/ member you want! :-)
(I suppose Roxas too---- Roxas is AWESOME!!!!!) XD
Yeah, I'll get it up for you...but it might take me the weekend to do it. :-\

But, SOOOOOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I /sweare/ upon it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*goes insane* %-P

You: Ok ok ok! *knocks me unconcious*
Me: zzzzzzzzzzzzz Q~_~
My brother: *hides 100 firecrackers in my slippers*
My cat: *sets-off irecrackers in slippers when tries to sleep on them, and discovers they were only stuffed with fortune-cookie-sized leaflets*...

"Fortune-Cookie Leaflet Say: trippletrouble3 paintz guud cheez!" ^______^
(thank you again for that.... *is very gratified* ...sorry, it just feels weird to me when people give me things. *doesn not know what to say besides "thanks" and *eats cheese**)
So, THANK YOU! *eats the never-deminishing cheese* :-)

...On the other hand, the uninfinite plate's another story. *chomp* :-x

tripletrouble3Eh. Go figure.
(I ::still:: want your Roxas cosplay. Can i have it??)

Have you ever considered making one out of those big white poles you can get at Home Depot? I have an old one about 4" (my mom had to make a big flag for me for this one costume thingy, but the pole was 10" long.) THOSE make really cool swishy noises when ya swing 'em real fast. They're a little heavier than wrapping paper tubes, but are EXTRAMLY durable, and I think one of the only ways you can break them is running them over with and 18 wheeler. Try using one of those, I wonder what the result would be with that? (ponders)

Another question, when you make these, are the ends covered, or are they just open?

blind_stranger on April 19, 2006, 10:49:34 AM

blind_strangerNaaah... I jaust salvage them from the holidays. B-)
I got a whole TON saved-up in my closet.....just in case. ^_~
(i used to think they were really rare when I was little, so I started saving them; but /then/ I found out it was just cause my mom kept throw'n em all out before me'n my bros had a started sword-fight'n w/ em! ...Buuuuut, now I have her convinced to let me keep a few for my insane projects, now that I'm actually /good/ at art. e_e *used to be really bad*) X-P

It's only in the last couple of years that I've been able to start liking some of my own work. Perfectionists do have their limits after all! -----Or at least.... this one /here/ finally did. (me) :-)

My first keyblade (a kingdom key) was made outta hot-glued toiletpaper rolls, poster paint, and balled-up tinfoil. x_T
...Not fun.

I'm making a new kingdom key right now, but it might be while till I post any pics. I made the part just beyond the hilt all small and skinny, like Nomura did in the official art, but the glue I used to strengthen it is stronger than the cardboard itself, and therefore, keeps ripping it. (once I solve that, I can move on)

Well, I guess that 's about it...
..blind_stranger, OUT! ^_^V

["end transmition"] :B

tripletrouble3I want one...SOOOOO bad...
You are GREAT with cardboard and paper mache! I wonder how much wrapping paper you go through to make all those...(imagines house all covered in wrapping paper)

blind_stranger on April 11, 2006, 12:17:38 PM

blind_stranger on
blind_strangerHot glue; however, that turned-out not to work too well since the glue is actualy stronger than the cardboard it's adhering, and the /cardboard/ keeps breaking. :(
(paper-mache is SO much better; it's LIVE'N HECK to break!, if made well...) =D

I'm working on a better one that I'm gonna photograh -as I make it- so I can give you nice ppls a -photographic- tutorial... but I'm having a lil trouble making a printable design that fits cardboard tubes in a proper 3D kind of way... *frown*
