Final Fantasy VII Buster Sword Build, Created By Michael Cthulu of Discovery's Big Giant Swords

Final Fantasy VII Buster Sword Build, Created By Michael Cthulu of Discovery's Big Giant Swords
If you haven't had a chance yet to watch the full builds on youtube or the show that was on Discovery channel, do yourself a favor and check out the work of Michael Cthulu. The swords seem decorative at first as they are all based around fantasy video games and lore, but they are well put together and go through a battery of tests to prove their worth. Quite a good watch and enjoy the quirkiness of the craftsman himself.

A Big Giant Sword And One Man's Craftsmanship Spark New TV Series On Discovery

A Big Giant Sword And One Man's Craftsmanship Spark New TV Series On Discovery
Science fiction and the realm of fantasy within pop culture and more specifically video games are designed to break down boundaries into a new form of reality. One element that we earth bound mortals work with daily and that we still don't have a solid explanation for is the force known as gravity. The reason that gravity comes into play when speaking of sci fi is that we have a new craftsman about to launch on Discovery with his colossal swords. Their design and build is well put together but the size and weight create some very interesting visual tension about how a weapon should perform. Do yourself a favor and watch some of the youtube clips as Michael Cthulthu has built his reputation around fire and steel.
