The Death Scythe from Dante's Inferno

[FG7Superfly]

Wtf?

Is that the father from Dante?

[asdfdsa59]

In LARP, they dare not challenge your awesome.

[bennieman13]

I took some ideas from this vdeo and made it out of pop cans and duct tap eand some other stuff. but this was very helpful.

[vitorelio]

In brazilian linguage inferno is hell so... Dante's Hell!

LOL!!! this make sense!

[Errangit]

your videos are awesome

[ZACKWOLFWALKER]

what do you do with all your projects?

[onlyshooter1]

where i can buy this scythe? im the most fan of dantes inferno

[messed2552]

i couldnt make one from styrofoam i so i made a normal scythe its more of a shadow scythe halloween 2010 i was the grim repers son and i killed my father lol so i made a black sythe and got a skull mask pained it black and tried to wash it off only some came off and it looks so cool then i put it by the top tied it to the blade part(aka cardboard )lol

[woahcoolwaffles121]

cartoony

[DayOldSoda1]

Death's Scythe*

[streetfighter4dude11]

@daniel194983 that's what she said

[streetfighter4dude11]

@daniel1

[daniel194983]

that is so big:O

[TheBastered]

dude, have anyone told you try make the real one with metals and real bone shape (not in bone bone, I meant shaped it to be better)

[thenathana8er]

makes it look like bone eh? damn. ima spraypaint my leg.

[Davmm96]

make the Kratos swords :)

[OushGisher]

May I ask where you're from? You have a cool accent

[nerfornothing0911]

can you make a riot shield or a ballistic shield

[ningengami]

Have you considered making a real one? not sure as far as the blade but i would use some wood for the handle. carve it. and attach the blade to the top. as for the blade i would mess around with some sheet metal and grind stones. the foam for me seems kinda cheezy. if id had time id do it for real.

[epicfantasy]

@ningengami A real one would be cool. Haven't really considered it though. You are right about the foam, but its so easy to work with!

[thunderkazma]

@ningengami at least make it smaller

[johnytwotimes1]

@ningengami dude that would be impossible to make... in the game the scythe extends from 9 feet tall to about 16 to 18 feet tall.. a chain connected to the blade at the top does that. and also the blade itself moves back into a Spear.. that weapon would be so hard to make it would be nearly impossible

[xINVISIGOTHx]

very nice tutorial

[mmaman21209]

the bone handle part looks like a del taco french fry hahaha

[epicfantasy]

@mmaman21209 rofl! It is. This way I can snack while fighting demons.

[messed2552]

@mmaman21209 supose to be a spine not a gross fry but ya thats true lol

[DupayForLife]

If only it would extend! :(

[epicfantasy]

@DupayForLife Maybe I should have made it to extend. Thought about it.

[HardCore23121]

come on do some combo with it :DDD

[epicfantasy]

@HardCore23121 lol!

[Aliendrizzt]

nice scythe but is is actually usable? Alsso what kind of paint do u use??

[Aliendrizzt]

nice scythe but is is actually usable?

[sanfelipe007]

Why nobody do a real one xD

[mettler52]

isn't there supposed to be a cog like thing in the skull

[epicfantasy]

@mettler52 Yes, there is! Good eye. I just left it out to make it easier.

[ce1916]

you know the skull suposed to go upsidedown

[epicfantasy]

@ce1916 Good point. After I finished it I realized the skull was wrong. But just didin't want to fix it!

[ZzIiGg10]

You should make a soul from soul eater the scythe :3

[THERAGNAROK777VII]

make me a dante rebellion sword replica and il pay however much u want me to dude i cant find a decent replica let alone actual sword X0

[ForsetiLover]

that is amazing, do you make and sell these or just make them for yourself? that would a business, a lot of cos-players and such would pay to have some make their weapons an stuff, I know i would cuz I'm not handy...at all

[epicfantasy]

@ForsetiLover Thanks, this was a fun project. I wonder what somebody would pay for this? It's just sitting in my basement.

[ForsetiLover]

@epicfantasy well it all depends on what you would charge or how much someone is willing to pay i guess, the cost it took for you yourself to make it

[Demonichellfighter]

Anime convention"

[Demonichellfighter]

this would be great for aniame conventions dresssed as dante.

[Gunzgunz100]

Its awesome dude

[kaxDful]

hmmm...i think i have seen this before...i think in my little brother's room...it looks like a toy from my little brother...sorry man but i don't like it so much...but it's your thing

[chr8870]

nope not that great you forgot alot of detail

[CR7CR9RealMadrid]

badass.

[TheDarkjanga]

thumbs up for bringing that shot to school =D

[randomboostsuperguy]

life.... you dont has it

[thirty9flavors]

@randomboostsupergAy fun... you don't have it?

[randomboostsuperguy]

i have fun :D having fun is what i do .. sometimes

its just that he look 50 years old and create lame RPG things ..well not lame but still .. kinda lame

[epicfantasy]

@felipinho001fly thanks, it was a lot of work! But fun to make.

[TOOMIKING1]

is it for the wii ? :P

[rsman211]

its also a world famous book :) i got dantes inferno on ps3 and the book :) its a great game

[lewisu2uber]

Epic win!

[Sonicdronic]

Its has a very nice touch but, don't you think it looks a little cartoonish but it will be WAY cooler if it could turn like in the game but overall, Nice Scythe!!!!

[truitons]

wow ! nice work ! I'm watching some of your videos and your doing great stuff ! Good work !

[7JDH7NL7]

Lol first i thought it was a cardboard bat

[MrGodOfWarful]

@epicfantasy do you mind if i start do those same weapons as you but only real metal wood and steel??

[djbroncoroc]

This is really sweet and detailed, but....can you teach me how to make a REAL ONE,THAT BIG!!!!! Please!!!!

[SweetTaLe]

@djbroncoroc Well yeah, all you need is some bone, steel and someones spine. I mean elephants spine or something. And the skills of a blacksmith. Yeah. That would do it.

[magruder12345]

now let's kill someone with that

[UnwashedGoblin]

Just work the details a little more and it will look just like the ''real thing '' ?

[geglespheler]

tat would be so sweet to larp with

[Cloloc]

it would be a fail if you were lifting the scythe and it was sooo heavy that you fell XD

[epicfantasy]

@Cloloc lol, good point.This is a big and heavy war scythe!

[Cloloc]

@epicfantasy one question though how do you use a foam cutter? Im not very familiar to foam so i use cardboard :P

[orcish45]

damn thats seriously good :) nice vid

[Xythe43]

Does this work for all steel core weapons? Please respond, Xythe43

[epicfantasy]

@Xythe43 I don't know. Sorry

[LivingFireWolf]

My Jealousy level is over 9000 xD

[nanblood]

have you made the assassins creed wrist blades yet?... if not i think you could make a wrist blade but with 2 blades in it instead of one,

just another idea, you've made rockets to kill the dragon but what if you want to catch the beast.... a rocket net :)

[nimeni8]

you are the best !!!!!!!!! thx for the site



[epicfantasy]

@nimeni8 You are very welcome! I am having fun with the projects and have more great stuff coming :) Thanks for watching!

[gorillazfan3]

I really need this. My neighbor is a total demon!!!

[HowlingSkyWolf]

@gorillazfan3 lol

[ImQUENTINbra]

I wish I have that like you

[merkno76]

It's funny really, When Dante fight Death, Dante pwns Deaths with HIS OWN WEAPON, I mean he literally take's the scythe and goes up to Death and chops him in half with it!!

[Dragonspirit999]

can u make Kratos' blades of exile from gow 3

[epicfantasy]

@Dragonspirit999 A lot of people like the Kratos stuff. I just might do some!

[megakombat09]

@epicfantasy make a giant demon windmill shuriken from naruto and sasuke uchias sword

[666deathdragon]

u gotta swing with it that way u dont hurt ur self if it were real pretty heavy all about agility like the other guy said and practice i do all kind of stuff like this u use the back of ur arms too alot of cordination depends what kind of stuff u like great job man props xD im15 try doing kratos swords the chain sword pretty sick ive actuallty used the grabed real chan and meade of like some iron and cardboard sword came out relly good

[smokin0aces135]

i wont to touch your bold head!!!

[AznaThira]

visceral games has a life size model of it, look it up it could help you improve the design

[epicfantasy]

@AznaThira Thanks, I will look it up. I would like to improve and upgrade this death scythe!

[jimbobtheimpaler]

GOD of WAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sengfar964]

maybe make the scythe with a cylindrical shaped handle with stratchy rubber bits so it can be swung more easily

[epicfantasy]

@sengfar964 Thanks, I would really like to update and improve this project. It was fun to make but didn't come out as good as I thought.

[sengfar964]

@epicfantasy np, you should also see if you can add some sort of button that when pressed, it will open up that grabbing section at the button

[2afrosamurai]

how the hell are you supposed to swing that around

[sengfar964]

so far it sux

[vultwaz]

whuts weird is that theres a gundam called deathscythe

[hemdall91]

Cute skull!

Wait...Am i supposed to say that...?

[macman3100]

i kinda thought it wuld be

[macman3100]

i dont see how dante swung that thing at tremendous speed and agility u shuld put hinges on it to where it wuld swinng into spear mode and lock

[epicfantasy]

@macman3100 This is a great idea. I really wanted to hinge the scythe so it could lock in spear position but ended up to be too much work. Just the regular scythe took too much work. Maybe at some point I will modify it.

[gojak23]

holy shit once i saw this this i was like ohhh!!!!!! but it would even sicker if u made the two swords off of the god of war series, with the chains and all

[epicfantasy]

I will check out those God of War swords. I have already started my next sword. But I will look and see.

[thehmphone]

Alright, time for you to go to hell and start dueling with Lucifer's minions.

[JorgeyPie]

no life

[boyj1222]

It doen't look anything like it

[tylerkeen19]

best video game ever im making one!!!

[CalmDraven]

dude awesome Scythe but i think Death wants it back ^_^

[epicfantasy]

[nfsmohpsp]

[gck86]

[Larael1001]

@JahSmokebuds

[JahSmokebuds]

lotta work for something so pointless... but hey i geuss video game are too

[SWIFTartz]

and i'm making a $500 dollar per month flash game with only 1 other person

[SWIFTartz]

@Playaer100

That's ok coz I'm 15 check my art at swift-artz.deviantart. com

[TheOriginalRadlam]

u saddo u have way too much time

[x4shadowzone]

dude make a sythe from metal and reall bones !!XD

nice prototype btw

[50spano]

i guess u guys dont know but dante was an antic italian writer(he wrote three books regareding the chathlic religon hell,heven and in italian pulgatorio which is where u go when u are suposed to go to heven but u must first purifie urself)it has nothing to do with syths and his girlfriend but i am getting the game for the hell of it.I hope u learned somthing today!

[SolidMetalRock]

@50spano I'm glad someone actually knows literature. This is true.

Dante Alighieri was an italian poet writer and philosopher who wrote Three books: Inferno, Paradiso (paradise in english) and Purgatorio (purgatory in e.). All three books together are known as The Divine Comedy.

The game is basicly based on the books with a little twist of video-game action and whatnot. :D

[SWIFTartz]

wow that looks like crap

[05yoda]

done it wrong, firstly the skull on the sythe is the wrong way up, and it looks like foam -.-

[Kiether1]

This is really creative. I think it's great!!

[LRodilosso]

looks like a palm tree

[Minifisen]

Viceral did one better :(

[cccchhhhable]

i'll probably make a scythe off of a game called darksiders i could make it the same way i did with this one

[epicfantasy]

How is that Darksiders Game? I heard it was crazy!

[cccchhhhable]

its awright but, like dante's inferno its like god of war

[Meissama]

@cccchhhhable

which is a clone of devil may cry, which has a lot of elements of RE and dynasty warriors and so on. Jus because its like a game doesn't condemn it.

[wewillrocku123]

it was amazing...i give it an 11 out of 10

[alyanajan]

nerd

[Laxmaster72]

So wolverine, you planning on harvesting crops with it or something? Or maybe yanking someone head off?

[111Wolverine]

lolz naww bro i actually make a livin making and selling videogame/movies props ,,,althought my back yard does have a awful lot of weeds =)

[111Wolverine]

iam workin on a real one like reall 440 stainless blade an real bull vertabre staff with metal pole core ima post a video soon u might wanna check it out

[ccs774]

nice sythe very good however the skull looks like its wailing or screaming but other than that nicely done.

[pitchblack00n]

that is awsome dude i only just played the demo nd i killed death 4 the sythe that was so fun after u that the sythe death starts begging and says he can help u untill u cut in his head and through his body

[squall600]

oh dude, thats friggin amazing dude

[epicfantasy]

lol! Thanks. It was a fun project. I been tinkering with the idea of making an even better one!

[ModelManTom]

The Hello Kitty skull at the top makes this weapon truly evil! lol!

[tamametal]

@ModelManTom

lol

[epicfantasy]

OMG! LOL!

[br00talst]

you're great man.!

love your vids!

keep on your good work!

[epicfantasy]

Thanks! Lots more videos coming. Some really fun stuff on the way.

[table540]

@lastmondaypast do u play rs?

[epicfantasy]

I dont currently played but I have played it in the past. Fun game.

[Fizzlybear98]

Aw Kewl! I just started using wood so it will take me some years to arrive to building a giant scythe....

[lastmondaypast1]

personally I like the weapon he has at the begining more though, halberd I think it is, im not sure

[dathwampeer]

i did too at first.

the scyths design is a little clumsy.

id have prefered they make the handle thinner. even if it was still made of a spine. i think a thinner staff and a more spindly blade would have gone down better.

atleast he'd have looked like hed be able to handle it

[lastmondaypast1]

I was playing dante's inferno, its epic everyone should buy it when it comes out. Its like god of war times ten.

[rickoe12]

its big!

[2afrosamurai]

@rickoe12 thats what she said

[VipericVampire]

Will,

Could you try creating the Soul Reaver sword from the game Legacy of Kain? That would be so badass!

[epicfantasy]

I am going to look that sword up. Long time since I played Soul Reaver. Might be a fun project.

[VipericVampire]

Wow, you actually did play Soul Reaver! That is awesome!

I can assure you it would be a fun project. Looking forward to see it, if you decide to. ^_^

[hampurilainenXXL]

You could open your mail with that :P

[epicfantasy]

LOL!

[jordan1546]

holy crap...

[epicfantasy]

teehee! Crazy isn't it?

[vonfrog1]

I haven't read through all of the comments, so I'm not sure if anyone's suggested this yet. If you want to spray paint your foam, coat the foam in spray adhesive first. It won't take much, but make sure you cover it thoroughly and wait about 5 tp 10 minutes before you apply your paint.

[epicfantasy]

thanks! Great tip. I will definitely do this.

[tech2kn0w]

Can we use sandpaper to smooth the rough parts down? or does it look better that way with the rusted feeling.

[epicfantasy]

fine grit sandpaper works pretty well

[suirllinddracus]

Wow... That's massive.

[Graven754]

Wow that is awesome, and I have finished making my full sized Buster sword out of cardboard, and it is on my channel. Please tell me what you think of it. I haven't [painted it yet thought.

[1guitarfreak4]

the handle is a little to thick, other than that this is sweet

[Khufu718]

You are awesome! I myself want to make a Dante costume for comic con and your advice on making the Scythe was really useful! XD

[itachi1303]

I prefer the Divine Comedy book over the videogame, anyday.

[Aresftfun]

sweet, but your right, I wouldnt use this. haha. could you do more weapon ones, though? they're awesome. (:

[guitardbucket]

This reminds me of an old RPG that I think was for Commodore 64 and DOS.

[Blackboarder77]

That lookas....DSNDJSHA AWESOME!

I would add more a of a dirty look to it though.

[SpartanLegion1]

That's cool to know that you keep up with video games as well. Keep up the good work.

[SimpleVisionVideos]

kinda looks like a palm tree

[jreed136]

How much would you sell that beast for?

[tatulover01]

well being a warhammer fan i knew that spray paint wud melt the foam, but i havent used foam myself, i just know due to the number of vids i see on here on the channel miniwargaming

[stumpythumper]

There is certain spray paints that are safe for foam Krylon makes an easy to find one.

But Floral spray paints usually work...

And there are a ton of colors

There are live flower & silk-artificial flower sprays...just check the can usually they say safe for foam:)

Nice job on your death-dealer:)

[epicfantasy]

Thanks stumpy! I have to get some of that foam safe spray paint. I had no idea spray paint would eat at the foam!

[recurveninja]

cool

[epicfantasy]

Thanks! I can't wait for the video game to come out.

[LadiesXMan217]

thats humongous, nice job. love your vids!!!!!!! :)

[epicfantasy]

Thanks! Death is not bashful about his weapons.
