Due to the fact that multiple people asking me this, I will post it on here. The foam is much more sturdy than a pool noodle type foam and make great material to design the swords with. Also I can make sheaths as well.

The sword was a kind of template for the blade. Just so I could get an accurate curve. And today I learned why you never cut yourself with a HOT hot knife lol ouch.

If I ever get around to buying a FastHawk, I'll probably commission a foam replica from you. Would it likely fit in the kydex sheath, or...?

Yes it would. The foam one is the exact size as the real one.

So instead of using a flight suit( so I don't bake alive ) I'll be using a pressure suit instead for the under armor. Also I will be cutting out many metal core pieces this weekend along with some sanding and hopefully finishing all but the painting on the suit.

Im guess shooting him where has no padding. Its going to be interesting when a zombie in that suit is chasing someone. My hats off to you sir excellent work on the suit

Thanks guys for the support. If you are referring to te melee weapons it's probably I hit kill for regular zombies. As for the juggernaut zombie suit, I will have to talk to the game hosts and staff there to see what the rules for me would be. I won't be able to be the tank zombie I was told but maybe a stronger one lol.

Oh and I'm getting a riot helmet today thank to tomtomb. Planning on modifying it slightly to make it more juggernaut looking.

Unfortunately I will have to raise the prices for the melee weapons. I put 3 days of work into WAC so it's only fair. 15$ for small to medium pieces, 20$ each for large, and 10-15$ for a molle ready sheath. Sorry guys for this but I had to due to prices of foam tiles, paint, etc. This does not effect those who already ordered.
