Xena new Photoshoot

After a few weeks I've decided to change my Xena mannequin for another one that have simetrical sides, I think you the costume can be displayed clearly here. You can see the screenused sword on the back and the Yin yang chakram on the right side on the hook. Boots is my newest adquisition and are an early replica of Todds Costumes, I must say are very well done, good leather and a good running shoe inside.

 

Athena screenused dagger style prop

 Hi guys! I've hadnt posted yet but Ive adquired this dagger a few months ago and I forgot to post it here. So,as you can see it is a screenused dagger used in the tv series in different episodes. The most recognized moment where the dagger is used by Athena in Motherhood, in this case the dagger doesnt have the blue faux jewel of the Athena dagger, instead it has a New Zealand shell in both sides. 

The dagger is in very good condition, is made of heavy resin with a metal rod inside and the painting is almost intact.

Handle, guard and pommel close-up.

This dagger was seen in the episode "Here comes Miss Amphipolis..." in the final scene.

In the episode of "Motherhood" Athena holds it at the beginning of the episode.

Also, Athena takes it out of the sheath when she fights Xena at the end.

Front, the copper breastplate looks stunning, also, you can see that the kneepads had lost the copper painting over the reliefs.

Side - Chakram details are amazing.

Back side, in my opinion, its quite interesting how is the corset laces, the copper back armour, and you can watch that most of the paua shells from the scabbard are missing.
