_{I'm going to cosplay as Diao Chan and that weapon is so amazing *-* Do you think you could tell me how you make it?}

The base is made of cardboard tubes and most of the details are cut from craft foam and glued on. It's strung together by wire and the connecting loops are key rings that I glued craft foam over. Doing a good paint job will help it look realistic - look into some spray painting tutorials for techniques and tips.
Hope that helps.
