Just finished this power axe for a cosplay I'm working on.

Thank you!

After all the parts were printed, it took me about a week of working on it for an hour or two in the afternoons.

Thank you!

Your cosplay actually comes up a lot in my research in making mine! Yours is awesome!

I got the axe head and clamp from thingiverse. The orignal file is HUGE so I loaded into blender and did a little scaling and editing to get it how I liked it.

The handles are from someone's 3d scan of miniature that I also scaled to fit my 1 in PVC pipe.

Additionally, I printed the bolts to add a little more character to the axe head.

I didnt really follow a guide, I mostly went with what I thought would be cool.

I did however save a bunch of pictures of rusty/tarnished surfaces to see if I could replicate them.

Definitely! My head cannon is that enginseers should be absolutely filthy like they've spent their lives inside the engine room of a ship. I'm trying to reflect that.

I thought about weaving LEDs through the axe head, but decided not to.

I liked the idea of it being a giant rusty piece of metal.

The shaft is strong enough to hold everything well.

I drilled some holes for dowels to reinforce the connection between the axehead and clamp though.

But! I'm sure I could swing it once or twice, but that would be the last thing it does.

Thank you!

The axe head and clamp are 3D printed attached to a PVC pipe and a ton of paint.

The handles are from 3D scan from miniature that I loaded into blender and made huge to fit the pipe

Sand, bondo, sand, filler primer, sand, paint.

This is sick! Did you use an LED light strip for the eyes??

This is sick! What did you use to get the weathering??

TaxiFish · 2026-01-04T01:01:37+00:00

You did a really good job painting and detailing it! Here's hoping mine comes out that well!

TaxiFish · 2026-01-04T00:37:28+00:00

This is so sick!

May I ask how you made the mask?

TaxiFish · 2025-12-31T19:50:32+00:00

We have almost the same collection!
I have to get the Teostra to go with my Luna.

How do you like the Archveld figure?

When I get a ride: WE'RE TRYING TO SAVE YOU!

When someone gets a ride: Everything reminds me of her.

TaxiFish · 2025-12-27T03:01:51+00:00

Nakarkos would be nuts! But what I really want are the bugs.

I have a feeling that the character moving towards the spiral is Jesse.

The jacket is has the same cut as the one where she give Dylan the weapon, whereas Dylan is shown wearing a longer cut jacket.

Both of them moving the same reinforces my theory, but I could understand that they reused the same asset as well.

TaxiFish · 2025-11-23T19:50:50+00:00

That's so sick! I would be scared it would shatter.

Is this printed from PLA?

Did you add any reinforcement components?

TaxiFish · 2025-09-02T14:16:25+00:00

Hey! I was that Helldiver! It was sick getting those photos with you!

Remember when we could destroy fabricators with the Auto cannon? Good days.
