This is one beautiful cosplay accessory-a replica Gunblade from the video game Final Fantasy VIII that doesn't look like a cardboard blade covered in gobs of paint.

The guy who built this screen worthy replica made it for a college course in prop making, using MDF, balsa wood an a Pringles can to get the job done right.

From the look of this amazing Gunblade, this guy should have no problem getting a job in Hollywood as a prop builder.
