World of Warcraft: Doomhammer

So, I've had a couple projects going on at the same time in preparation for having a booth at Anime Conji so I haven't been able to upload any finished projects..... until now!

Here is finally a finished piece that'll I'll be wearing along with a (hopefully finished) original "blacksmith" character. I'll be helping out Trinket Slot with there booth and spicing it up with some of my weapons.

This is the Doomhammer. I didn't get to play much of Warcraft, but its a pretty iconic piece in Warcraft lore. Its always fun to make big weapons and trying to figure out the what to use. I'm proud to say this hammer probably weights no more than 5-6 lbs.
A box of packing peanuts.... what a way to start a weapon.

packing peanuts + expanding foam= eruption of foaminess!

Had to contain the eruption... I honestly thought the box would eplode

It looks like ice cream
