Hi there! 
I see you have made a Battle Bunny Riven Sword, and It sure looks nice and right scaled.
I was wondering if you could tell me the basics, of how and what you used to make it as good as yours?
Im planing to do a Battle Bunny Riven cosplay next year, Im working on the bunny suit now. But I just cant figur out a way to make the sword, as good as yours. Can you plz help me ?

Yeah of course!
The sword is entirely carved out of insulation foam board. This is a pretty thorough tutorial on working with it: www.cosplay.com/showthread.php…
To determine the proportions of the sword, I looked at a lot of images of Riven with her sword, and assuming she's roughly the same size as me I sketched out about how big I thought the sword should be and compared it to myself in a mirror to make sure it didn't look too big or small.
After carving it all out, I sanded any rough edges and used plain white Gesso on the whole thing to prepare it for painting. I just used cheap acrylics to paint it all up.
The tutorial explains all you need to know about working with the insulation board. The painting is a bit harder to explain, since there wasn't really a specific process I used; I just sort of felt it out as I went along.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you still have any specific questions.

Ahh... Thank you so much for the answer, I have been thinking of something like that too.
Thank you for clearing things up for me
I am planing to use expanding foam for the sword, since its very hard to find foam boards here in Norway
The way you used to measure the size for the sword, sounds very clever, I'll try it out
Thank you so much for the help!!

Fan of your Skaven. Would love to see your whole army when they are finished
Thanks for all your comments :] I've finished a squad of clanrats, but I don't think they're really display-worthy (meaning I rushed them 
). I've started doing a Grey Knight commission for someone though, so I'll have some images of that up soonish hopefully
