A cosplayer commissioned me to make Spirit Blossom Lillia's staff and horns, i took the opportunity to learn new 3D modeling softwares
I used ZBrush to sculpt the staff and horns, Fusion 360 for the chain and Blender for the \"sphere\"
I didn't like the shape of the horns in the original artwork, so i referenced what i think it's a pre release version of the 3D model (not really sure)

I 3D printed the 1.6 meters tall staff in 12 pieces to avoid supports and due to build volume costraints. I then primed, painted and varnished before adding the leather strips
I 3D modeled adaptors for the power bank in order to attach it to the chain and the sphere. Everything is still accessible and i used an arduino nano to drive the led's animation
Here is the final product with electronics hidden and diffused leds. I forgot to add the little \"flag\" at the bottom of the sphere for the photo
