Description From Final Fantasy XV, Noctis Lucis Caelum's main weapon of choice, the mechanical falchion,Β named the Engine Blade.

The sword was made using, in order of use: pine wood, pla-plate, paperclay, and cookie cutters. Pine wood formed the bulk of the sword. Pla-plate was used to create details such as the rivets and exhaust grills. Paperclay was used to fill and smoothen any surfaces on the wood, and also to create the runes on the blade. Cookie cutters were used to make the circular exhausts on the sword. If you'd like to know more about the creation process, do take a look at my WIP deviation listed below.

Painting was mostly done by my friend, since I lack the tools and expertise for it, aka, I suck at painting! :<

Completed within the time frame of almost a year, working on and off. It took way too long to make, twice as long as I expected in fact. Nevertheless, it turned out better than I expected as well, and I'm glad its now complete. One important thing I learnt while making this sword was never to underestimate details. They're the most time-consuming part of any project. Its best to do each individual detail separately before putting it all together, otherwise you might find yourself working in really tight corners.

I love the accuracy, and the attention to detail that you put into this. The black that you used for most of the sword brings out a very serious tone to the weapon.

I silvered mine since initial production -- and you are right. The devil is definitely in the details. Worst weapon to make, ever.

This came out so much better than mine, but I think the black color really kills the details you put into this... I really recommend you get some painter's tape and a can of chrome and metallic silver spraypaint. it is complete, but it can be so much more...

Laitz In reply to MistMana [2012-01-08 04:23:56 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I kinda thought that using chrome would be better, but I went with my friend's recommendation of colours for this, since he did have more experience in paints. The black I think you're referring to is actually gun metal. You can't really see it in the photo, but it gives off a bit of reflective shine in real life.

MistMana In reply to Laitz [2012-01-09 02:48:26 +0000 UTC]

I can see the gun metal shine, but I also saw the recent trailer and it was ridiculously shiny near King Caelum. Everything is still in development and as long as you like it that is fine, but don't be afraid to try new things
