Finished printing, building, and painting Engulfing Lightning and it came out spectacular! The model is extremely detailed, especially compared to any other option out there, and is far more true-to-game than the other options. I do recommend using steel/brass/aluminum dowels for the structure of the print (used 1/8th inch diameter), and a simple wooden dowel (like one you would use in a closet clothes rack) for the main length of the polearm worked extremely well. I did have to do the normal post-processing before airbrushing, but it has now survived multiple cons of being banged around and beat up! Attached image was right before I added the small wing pieces to complete it! Printed with a Creality K1 w/ Inland PLA+ 1.75mm filament on the standard 0.4mm nozzle.
I haven't gotten around to printing the whole thing yet, but I'm already very happy with what I got just after slicing them. This is my second time buying files for this weapon cause I didn't like the previous ones I got, cause you didn't really have much space to insert a pvc pipe in the upper part. But this model right here gives you enough space to ensure that it won't be wobbly and sit on the pipe nice and secure. The details look really nice as well! I'll update the review with a picture once I got around to finishing the prop :)
This project came out beautifully! Very easy to build and easy to sand. My only issue was the two extra “accessory” pieces. They were fragile to glue on and attach (Holes seemed too small to me at least). And to my dismay they snapped multiple times from unfortunate events( Issue on my end). But I found a way around it and it still came out wonderful! It was fun to carry around such a tall weapon!
Took a little bit of resizing for my bed, but I'm excited to see the end product together
