Anyone have a pair of Sideshow Cobra Commander gloves they'd sell? I'm only looking for the wrist bracer/gauntlet pieces not the gloved hands themselves. Thanks.

Tsuba(Hand guard).
Make it from sheet styrene.

 

[spiderrogue]

that's what the sword is..and i thought about it..will hit up model shop again..may look at the metal sheets they have..would rather have metal then plastic anyways..


and speaking on ninjas...new leg wraps(like the SSC ones without the armor plates)....

When making blades like that, i usually scribe the Hi into an empty piece of styrene first, then cut the blade once the lines are done, cutting the front edge, and sanding it on a sanding machine before cutting the back edge.

 

[spiderrogue]

you think i should try the metal or leave them as is?

Styrene is a lot easier to work with.
It can be done in metal. But you could churn out ten styrene ones in an hour. All you do for the Tsuba/hand guard is cut a hole in a piece of styrene so it will fit over the blade/handle, then cut the outside shape to your preference of shape.
If you are good working with metal, you can probably still get great results. But it's easier with styrene.

 

[spiderrogue]

gotcha....thanks for the tips...will see what i can do...
