Finished prop

Hello all! I finished my prop now, the one I was working on in the last post.

90 degree angle of the prop.

Side view of the riding crop rapier hybrid prop.

What I did was I spray painted the entire riding crop with primer. Since the primer was white it helps to create a base coat for other colors to show up nicely. Next I spray painted the handle red, let it air dry. I used painter's tape to cover up the top and handle part of the crop. I didn't want to spray unnecessary parts. I used a gold color for the dome part of the hand guard, and then sprayed the bottom tip of the red handle. I added the support piece to the side of the dome and handle, and some smaller pieces on the inside of the dome for extra support. And voila! It's as simple as that. I have very minor detailing I will paint by hand, but it's basically finished now.
