What is a Buster Sword?
The Buster Sword is a legendary weapon that originated from the Final Fantasy series of video games, specifically Final Fantasy VII. It is one of the most iconic weapons in the franchise and is closely associated with the game's main protagonist, Cloud Strife.
The Buster Sword is a massive, two-handed sword with a broad blade and a hilt long enough to be wielded with both hands. It has a distinctive design, featuring a large, rectangular blade with a series of slots and holes, giving it a unique and imposing appearance. The blade is typically made of steel and has a sharp edge, allowing it to deal significant damage to enemies in combat.
Creating the Sword
The creation of the awe-inspiring Buster Sword was a labor of love, combining cutting-edge technology and skilled craftsmanship. To embark on this epic journey, I harnessed the power of a remarkable 3D printer, capable of transforming digital designs into tangible objects.
I meticulously printed each of the 15 individual components that would soon be united in a harmonious symphony of "steel". Layer by layer, the printer crafted the intricate details and contours.
With the sword's components in hand, I embarked on the delicate task of assembly. I carefully aligned and joined the pieces and had a rough base to work off of. I employed the aid of Bondo, a substance capable of filling imperfections. With care, I applied the Bondo, smoothing out any gaps or inconsistencies, until the blade's surface was much more smooth.
Armed with an arsenal of spray paints, I applied layers of paint, selecting shades that would match the ones apparent in the game. Finally, to complete the prop, I wrapped the handle in faux red leather.
