Made a functional bow for Madoka cosplay
This was my first time finishing a 3D pen project, as I've started a couple things but never finished them.
Since I unfortunately live in a shelter atm, i had to get creative w most of my materials so that I'd be allowed to have it at home (and do a lot of the work at my job) but I'm super proud of the final product!
It did sadly snap around the bottom after the con, but it's not gonna be difficult to fix, and I was thinking of running the cosplay back again anyway!
In case anyone's curious about the process, I laid some steel rods down and drew the armature of the bow around it, then I just kept adding filament and building it up. I drew the branch for the side seperately then did the same thing, just kept drawing new layers kinda similar to a 3d printer. The accessories like the rose, leaves, and gems were all courtesy of Amazon.com though, I just used the filament to pin them down. Oh, and the arrow i just drew a square on the ground, kept adding filament so it would basically just be a fat square, then i turned it as i added more filament to curve the end, and just used filament to hold down the rose as well.
If anyone has any process questions, please ask! I really enjoy this hobby and getting to talk about it, plus I'd love to get more into cosplay prop making it anyone would like to ask ab that too!
