This is absolutely incredible! thank you so much for your hard work :)

@tmorrow182 9 лет назад

Another great build, Bill! Thank you for taking your time and effort to put these walkthroughs together. Watching and learning from your process has been monumental in my own prop making endeavors! Keep up the incredible work!!

@eloisejknapp 9 лет назад

Stunning build. Craftsmanship is impeccable as always!

@coregeek 9 лет назад

Nicely done. That wood texture really turned out great.

Do more of these kinds of videos these are great !!! :D

@stephenfinch6273 7 лет назад

incredible!!!!

@raxtolis 9 лет назад

Great work. I love these short how-to videos by you. It would be nice if you can give some guidance on estimating the silicone and resin amounts. That stuff is not cheap. I remember your video that stated to keep paper tubes around to make solid tubes for the lathe.

@MetiriPersonal 9 лет назад

at 4:43 you peel away the masking tape, but how do you shape it? Did you just use an exacto? If so, aren't you scared you'd scratch the surface you had just painted?

@ABornRaider 9 лет назад

WOW! That bow looked beautiful, now I know what it's going to look like in the upcoming game. Outstanding. 8)

@AcurelyObtuse 9 лет назад

Fantastic work! The finished prop looks incredible! I'm very excited for this game, but I'm one of many, I'm sure, to have to wait until the game comes to the Playstation. Nonetheless, this is a great video showing the process without getting bogged down in the detail. :D

@exaltdragon 9 лет назад

Great work. Question: how do you make the fletching on the arrow? Short of using real feathers/fletching as I find paper too fiddly and plastic/foam too thick.

@NoSoyCaca 9 лет назад

anyone knows what dremel accessory he uses on this proyect? D:

@TheJigs_ 9 лет назад

Where did you get that awesome music in the intro

@mangasketch2169 9 лет назад

So I hve built my base armor out of eva foam but when I go to sand it ends up rough, so my question is how do I get my edges smooth

@ragnarlothbrok8056 8 лет назад

Dear Bill Doran, recently I have been finding projects to distract myself and just finished a project on my laptop, my new project is creating a bow, I was wondering if you knew were I could download a blueprint, I have no idea were to begin on Inkscape, of course if you do want to share you exact blueprint perhaps you could point me towards a website were I can find blueprints, or a forum I should join to ask someone else. Thank you

@matthewskoog9277 9 лет назад

How much and how did u get a laser cutter?

@SkipperCS 8 лет назад

Did you look into building a functioning bow? Just curious. Couldnt have been much more difficult

@LargSigh 9 лет назад

Nice ! .... a question, if i want to make a mold of a helmet, do i need both mold max silicone and smooth cast urethane resin or just one of them ?

@LargSigh 9 лет назад

oh ! ok, thanks man :D and thanks for take the time for answer :P

@steveminla 9 лет назад

Awwwwww yeah!

@anniegraves6068 4 года назад

I know this is a super old video, but do you, by chance, offer that stencil pattern you painted on the arms of the bow as a download? I figured I would ask before I set out to make my own!

@punishedprops 4 года назад

Because this was a commissioned by the company I can't make any of the assets available

@nghiaphanquoc1604 2 года назад

@@punishedprops can i ask about the Blueprint? Please

@jdmoore19911 8 лет назад

do you sell any of your props?

@GamingDad63 9 лет назад

My first thought was "Why not make a REAL bow instead of this one?" But then i realized as someone mentioned in the posts here that it wouldn't be such a good idea to bring along an actual working bow to convents and such ;) nevertheless, beautiful work just for occasions like convents. I really liked the weathering techniques and wouldn't mind a new how-to-video on that

@GeorgiaAnneUK 9 лет назад

essteeff Plus it's only going to be sitting in Crystal Dynamics' office. So there's just no point in making it real and working

@AbbyDarkStarofKeAbtium 9 лет назад

essteeff I can speak from experience that a lot of hours go into a piece that you fabricate as a one off. If you need to make copies of it, for example, Crystal may want more than one (to have on display at cons, for photos shoots, etc...) it is very cost preventative to fabricate multiples due to the amount of hours put in on just the one bow. In addition, there is always the risk of damage to a prop or costume piece and if hours went into making it, that time is reduced greatly by having a back up mold.

@Beroop 9 лет назад

Out of curiosity.. Why not build it out of wood to start with?

@toebeansvideos 9 лет назад

Beroop He can quickly make copies!

@deathtyrantart 9 лет назад

It amazes me that you still use spray paint from a rattle can

@TC-ek6fo 9 лет назад

Was there a reason why he made didn't use the original wooden bow that he made? Was he afraid of ruining it so he just made a mold of it just in case?

@TC-ek6fo 9 лет назад

Ohhh, that makes complete sense! I thought the wood was going to be stronger than the resin too. I guess that's the reason why you're the badass prop guy and I'm the viewer :P

@NicoCroft171 8 лет назад

Hi bill. Sorry to bother you. I'm a student studying art and design and was wondering if you are able to sell any of your copies of the crafted Tomb Raider now? I would pay any amount you would ask for so o can have it for a Christmas present to myself! If you are able to, would love to hear back from you.

@SofthammerStudios 9 лет назад

Can you make a hidden blade that goes in and out by string

@bluedeath996 8 лет назад

I know you make props and not weapons, but its a shame you didn't make a functional bow.

@mackstey4155 9 лет назад

You were holding the bow wrong in the beginning, Still a great vid👍

@toebeansvideos 9 лет назад

The Mackster I totally was! The arrow Bill quickly whipped up for the video didn't have a notch and was quite the challenge to hold!

@mackstey4155 9 лет назад

+Brittany Doran, oh that makes sense😄, thanks for replying

@garthor 7 лет назад

I'm not sure I understand why you didn't just start with wood to get the wood grain instead of carving a bunch of lines in with a Dremel... >_>

@punishedprops 7 лет назад

I wanted the grain to exactly match the reference photo and wood doesn't come with that super deep, weathered wood grain unless it's been left out in nature for a long time. It was much easier to just carve in that detail by hand.

Hello Bill Doran I'm Ali 12 years old and i live in the Netherlands. Can you please make one for me if you want. I'm a huge fan of Tomb raider but i can't make this prop because i don't now how to make it. I don't have the tools to make it. Please reply Ali

@ToddB987 8 лет назад

Yhea.. This is pretty complicated and extensive. I think for myself along with others, we don't have access to these very expensive shop tools. I can totally get it if your hired by an entity to scratch build something like this for paying customer for an all out on the effort.

@albinlarsson7715 8 лет назад

that face u make when u accidentally shot someone with the bow

@fennecfox2844 7 лет назад

Can you make me a pair of working web shooters from the Spiderman movies

@JGDeRuvo 9 лет назад

That's a lot of work to build a bow that doesn't work ...

@VariablePenguin 9 лет назад

James DeRuvo They don't usually like you to carry around working weapons at conventions.

@MikeMafiaII 8 лет назад

+James DeRuvo Would take much more time and money. The bow in game/artwork is to thick and overbuilt to work IRL

@ryansizemore5064 8 лет назад

mmmm vinyl cutter

@kevster43k14 4 года назад

could have made the bow from pvc pipe

@punishedprops 4 года назад

That's also a great method! We wanted a little more control over the final shape and texture so we chose to go with molding and casting.

@fragtagradio 9 лет назад

Cool channel!!! Keep up the excellent content! Check out our most recent show on our page when u get a minute and let me hear what you think.

@Dutchsnakegaming 8 лет назад

creates an actual wooden bow to make a plastic mold for it because logic-.-

@midnightnavigator 8 лет назад

+Dutchsnakegaming I can see two reasons he did it. 1. Because now he can make duplicates, especially if he messes up on the paint job. 2. When you are posing in photos with your props or just running around a convention, you want them light. They can get heavy after a while, especially if you're in an action pose.

@dustinhadley7988 8 лет назад

I completely understand the ability to cast duplicates, and even the weight savings in slush-casting, but for a solid urethane casting like this, how much of a weight savings is there vs MDF? Being more woodworker than prop-maker, my estimate may be off because I already think of MDF as being reasonable weight by comparison.

@danburrill8716 8 лет назад

+Dutchsnakegaming MDF is not suitable for making an actual, functioning bow (or at least not one that'll take a reasonably tensioned string or last more than a few pulls before breaking in an impressive and potentially dangerous fashion). If I were building a real wooden bow that looked similar to that one (as somebody else pointed out it's far too heavily built to be usable by a human), I'd laminate the blank from thin strips of straight-grained wood, in a jig that bent them so that the grain follows the curve of the bow. That way you end up with a much stronger bow, capable (hopefully) of taking the considerable forces involved in drawing and shooting it.
