Assassin's Creed Unity - Phantom Blade

This weekend I will attend a fair. For this occassion I wanted to wear most of Arno's gameplay attire minus the blue coat. As always I wanted this hidden blade to be as thin as possible, but still having two tiers of blade extension. I think I did a great job on keeping this thing very slim. Making the gameplay version allowed me to integrate half of the blade into the vambrace. I make these vambraces a bit bigger than my own arms to look more muscilar in the costume (thanks RBF for that tip) and this gives me room to cheat a bit. Basicly the blade part is in between the leather parts, so the only part that is ON the vambrace is the crossbow part .

The whole Phantom Blade (plus the gear at top) is 3 cm thick. The part that is sticking out from the leather is a bit less than 2 cm .

It is a quick build and I will probably change some foam parts, add some buckles to it and I still have to integrate a system to open en close the arms of the crossbow. However, the space needed is allready here, I just couldn't bother to make it now because of time issues. So yes, it's all hand and gravity operated at the moment .
