Shmails' Custom Weapons

Post by shmails »

I made these for the Brickforge Weapon Contest, and figured I would share here.

First, Nun Chucks:

With Bruce Lee Custom Minifigure:

Second, Imperial Fighting Staff:

With Custom Samurai Guard:

The samurai was going to be a CCCVI entry, but did not make the cut.

Check out the full descriptions on the contest page:

I would love some feedback, thanks!

Brilliant work! The nun chucks, especially, are incredible. They look almost like an actual LEGO piece.

Nice work. Yeah, they look easy to make. I would probably make some if I could figure out a use for them. But enough of your modesty. Remember, it doesn't take a genius to play a complicated piece of classical music. But it probably took one to write it. And that nunchaku design was originally yours, no matter who else copies it. Again, nice work. :wink:
