Title: weapon aproval? (pic inside)
Post by: luckyends on February 19, 2008, 07:01:30 PM
so i just made these 2 swords and they are both about 3/4ths of an inch thick made out of ply wood
(https://forums.fanime.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi65.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fh223%2Fluckyends%2FIMG_1956.jpg&hash=b50d8dec4f87083d3c3b8f74c263215a50c12eef)
i put the old program guide for a size key
so i want to use these with a yukata (blade of the immortal) but my only problem is i do not want the con ops to peace tie them to my obi for fear of flashing my boxers and ripping the yukata or smudging paint all over it also there is really no other place to put em
would you think that they would just peace tie them and send me on my way? or do you think that only to a belt? or just to my hands? cause that would really really suck so please can some one help me with this predicament
and im still kinda excited cause i just finished them ^_^ i know my weapon skills aren't great but Im working on em

Considering how big the booklet is.. Those swords are huge. The con ops (Or Security) might do more then peace tie them :0

Well, they are made of wood, and metal would be a problem. I don't know,but they are okay in my opinion.

How do you consider those to be huge? I don't know how big the con book is, but it looks to be about the same size as the other cons I have been to..and going by that those swords are actually pretty normal sized to me. Probably more on the smaller side for props, actually. I don't know how strict the Fanime prop policy is (really wish they would get something up on this..) but at the con I staff (Kumoricon) we would just peace bond those and call it good.

When in doubt, ask the peace-bonding people! Or... you know, e-mail works too... xD
Though I forget who peace-bonds it... Rovers?
