Warglaive of Azzinoth

Iconic warglaives from the Warcraft saga were first wielded by Doom Guard Commander Azzinoth before being taken up by Illidan Stormrage during his reign in Outlands. I aimed to test the LED glow effect on a blade-type weapon, complementing my warhammer creation. The results exceeded my expectations, with the challenges related to blade weapons primarily stemming from the limitations of the build platform size. To accommodate LEDs, the blade had to be thicker than the LEDs themselves, necessitating a larger overall size to maintain a realistic appearance rather than a "blocky" look. This may also pose issues due to the blades' substantial size, potentially making them difficult to print if warping problems arise. The handle piece was printed from PLA, while the blades were crafted from PETG. Using Citadel miniature paints, I applied a finish to the model and embedded four LEDs within the handle, which emitted a green glow towards the blade tips.
