I just used some electrical tape...bent the edges over to give it a raised stitch effect and attached them to where the leather parts are...no glue or figure alterations needed.
You would have to reach out to them...becouse mine was the first one they had done....it cost more than what it will probably cost people buying it now...but its alot of hours and labour all hand made...its probably going to cost upwards of 6-700...but I dont know for sure you would have to...
Full metal customs...its not cheap though! It's really big, based off of the bad tomato hammer size wise....all stainless steel but they made it hollow so it really does not weigh that much at all.
So they ended up making it hollow the entire thing is made out of sheets of metal and not solid metal...originally I had ordered the stormbreaker in the movie but we couldn't figure out how to bend the wood...so I said let's do this instead turned out so awesome
So I went and did a thing...I found full metal customs and they are making me a stormbreaker based on what it would have looked like with a finished handle...the concept is from an art book....its not completed yet but I'm pretty stoked
I have had mine in the same pose (axe head down) since i got it a week ago with no visable warping. Maybe its a tempature thing. My figs are in a 65 degree room
