Have an idea...creative idea...what do you guys think?
So, I'm really wanting to get into blacksmithing. On top of that, welding and woodwork. Like take courses of the span of a year or so and try to really "master" the craft (cuz i know it'll take longer). At first I wanted to be a blade smith mainly, and do vg weapons....but now I kind of just want to try what my dream was when I was younger. Make keyblades. Like, obviously ones from the games (that are possible) but even take custom requests, stream it, and just kind of make my own shop. It'd be Caelin's Keys (dats my name) and I think it would be a fun way to just use my craft and my love of these games. They would be legit blades too. Obviously not suitable for use in any practical sense, but unless the blade is blunt in game (or if asked for a blunt/pole design ex. kingdom key), I would make it like an actual blade! For collection purposes of course.
that all being said is that something people would be interested in? Is this something that is already done and I'm way behind the times? I know there's a lot of 3d printed ones that go out, and I see a lot of made ones from the games sold in like some game stores, but just thought I'd bring this up. Obviously I'd do video game weapons and items, I've always wanted to make sephiroth's sword even though there's no way you could wield that thing lol, but let me know what you guys think. I'll be going to the classes regardless, and hopefully I can finally have a hobby that is not about the money. And while I would obviously sell some, it would be for the love of the game. Much love guys
May your heart be your guiding key.
