power rangers prop, gunstick blade blaster easy

 by craftsmith
these can be quite pricey on ebay or from other sources and if its just for costume wear on your belt then this is the easyest cheapest way to make one.

you will need cardboard, cellotape, paints and scissors to create it.
you will then need black and red paints and a brushe to paint it
to finish off you will need a black fine liner sharpie or a fine marker and foil tape to decorate the details.

Step 1: Template

first you need to mark out this shape above, its fairly accurate as I managed to get one from ebay (for less than market price I got really lucky) and my friend needs one for his costume later this year so rather than spend 25 quid or so I decided to make one for her.

any ways draw this shape out its roughly 35 cm long and 9cm wide.

simple.

I know this is only cardboard, but a coat of spray on primer would help the paint be a lot more even, spray on car primer is cheap and good

this is only a basic guide i recently remade one using the same design with foam board and then i used plasticoat spray which is about £6 pound a can but cheaper than car spray, it drys quick and sets solid.

hmm, my experience is that, car spray costs about that, comes in tins atleast twice as big, and is usually is specially made to fill small gaps
