Description Halibel from Bleach by Kubo Tite

Part of the

I made this over the weekend in a panic because AN is fast approaching and it was my last weekend at my dad's where all my painting and woodworking tools are. And with no reference - hahaha - that really sucked.

The cut-outs are so that the straps that hold it on my back have more grip.

[edit] New / Remade


Sword in action


Halibel cosplay can be found in my Bleach cosplay gallery

Materials:
Wood
craft foam (guard - no time for wood)
bias tape for handle wrapping
wire insulation paper for sheath
(same material used for other bleach swords --

AN...? Is everybody on DA in the same area? or are we all somehow able to gravitate to each other...
Nice sword

well, most of canada's population is in close to toronto. The con gets 10-12,000 ppl, so it makes sense.

I know but I mean canadians in general. Like, half the people I know here on DA are from Canada... I just find it odd! It's more common for me to meet people with tables at Anime North then tables at Fanime.
