Hello Steemians! I'm drawingwithflare.

I'm back and today I made a mini version of Thor's hammer, Mjolnir. I'll call it Minjolnir.

In this craft, I used 80cw sandpaper, glue and superglue, utility knife, vice, pencil and eraser, black and white paint, and ofcourse the popsicle sticks.

So first, I cut five popsicle in half. And cut 2 of the halves in half.

Then I glued them in an alternate to reinforce it. This one is 5×2.

Then I roughly estimated the size of the head of Mjolnir using a pen.

And then, using a hacksaw, I cut the excess parts of the popsicle body so I would do less sanding later.

And after that, I sanded the side for it to be smooth.

Then using a compass, I made a small circle on the top of the hammer head.

And as the guy that I am, I used the 80cw sandpaper to remove the excess wood.

Then, using the 80cw sandpaper, I smoothed the sides of the hammer head.

And then, I glued the small circle on top of it.

Then to make the hilt, I used 4 toothpicks and stick them together using super glue. For the grip, I just used the "skin" of the cardboard.

And then, I glued the grip in place.

Then to finish it of, I painted the head with silver and glued the hilt to it.

I wasn't able to finish the shuriken that's why I made this one. I will hopefully finish that tomorrow. It was surprisingly harder that I first thought it would be.
