Woo, here's the tutorial!

Again, there are other ways to make this, these are just my methods!

In total this was a solid week's work, but spread out over several months around other things I had to do. Apart from the plastics, none of these materials or the tools used are hard to come by or expensive, and the casting plastic was not as horrible as expected.

Materials used:
- 8mm thick sheet of a light type of wood
- thin nylon thread
- wood glue
- thin, sturdy cardboard
- fun foam
- multi pupose glue
- wall filler (bought as paste in tube, but can also be bought as a powder, which lets you control its thickness for a smoother finish - will be using this for most layers)
- water clear polyester casting resin + dye
- tin foil
- PVA glue
- long wooden dowel, 20mm diameter (through preferably same width as the staff head)
- primer paint
- brass spray paint
- clear spray paint
- 1mm clear HIPS plastic sheet
- super glue
- transparent blue glass paint

The link to the pattern: [link]
It is not perfect, and needs to be adjusted while you work; the lower part where it connects to the staff is not entirely symmetrical.
