About: Interested in creating art from things around me.

Making a full scale replica of Iron throne was a fun, personal project of mine. I referred a DIY video in YouTube (links provided in the credits section) which was really helpful.

I tweaked the process according to my requirement. The process is shown in the video. I’m sure there are better methods to do it. Let me know the in the comment section.

Time taken: 30-40 hours (I spent around 3-4 hours per day for 10 days straight to complete the throne).

Money spent: Indian Rs.1465
