Got the "gem" bracket finished, by looking at the closeup of the concept art I decided there was a use for the little angled plates sticking out from behind the gem, once added the whole head bracket became very strong and held the stone in there rock solid without glue or anything.

I stuck the bracket system on the staff to see how it feels.. might be a bit long but I can still cut that down to size. starting to take shape!

So after the fabrication of this bracket I can now work on the bladed end. I got to make the blank blade templates out of foam board before I start cutting alum-board.

Tomorrow is the blades, and the day after will be the scallops that go down the back and I'll be ready for final assembly, final detail, and painting :)

Hi Smeeon,

Beautiful! How much would a replica cost and how soon could i get one? I do have a UPS shipping account that should be able to handle its transport. My daughter is an avid cosplayer and tasked me with making it for her, and I am not as tool saavy as you, I can do amazing things with duck tape and safety pins, but I am outa my league here!

Lemme know what you think the damage and timeline would be!

Thanks,
All my best,
Danielle

Thank you very much for sharing this useful information. I was doing a project and for that I was looking for related information. Some of the points are very useful. Do share some more material if you have.

Was doing some research about Loki's staff when I came across your pictures! I'm in the process of trying to build my own, but I was wondering what size quartz egg did you use? I've found a bunch online but any decent size seems to be on the $100+ side.

Beautiful work you have here!

Quartz eggs are measured along the longest length in whole numbers. So this one was 3" but when measured it was closer to 2.75"
