04: The Emperor

Here's something cool I recently made for 's birthday. He's not into Jojo particularly but he likes the arcade game and he's a big fan of Hol Horse so I thought it'd be cool to make him a replica of Hol Horse's Emperor. I'd been wanting to test my skills on some more elaborate prop work for a while so this was really fun to make!

It's mostly pieces of wood hotglued together and foam for the raised parts of the design and some odds 'n ends like wooden spheres and cylinders and the magazine of a toy gun. I messed up my measuring a wee bit at some parts so the barrel is a bit crooked in regards to the handle when you look at it from certain angles, luckily it's not very noticeable. I'm still super pleased with how this thing came out - was even a bit sad I was giving it away, haha. 8)
