Keyblade of the People's Hearts - Kingdom Hearts

It's the last day of #3DPrintmas, and we're ending it with a bang! A full-sized Keyblade Prop from Kingdom Hearts is the perfect way to cap off this incredible holiday. This is Riku's Keyblade when he transforms into Riku Ansem, also known as the Keyblade of People's Hearts. I created the model in Fusion 360 by tracing a sketch and revolving the blade part. Then I extruded the spiky bits at the top and the handle guards. I also designed pins to hold the different pieces together and labeled the inside of each piece so it's easier to assemble them correctly. Next, my wife took over, carefully gluing all the pieces together. She used repair putty to fill in the seams and sanded it down to a smooth finish. Then she sprayed on several coats of filler primer before painting it with hammered metal and black spray paint - red for the handle guards. Finally, she hand-painted the purple and gold parts around the handle.
